Well I didn't post afterwards, but I changed the shaft a week or so ago. Took just a few hours, I did it after work one night. Everything went well, which is surprising knowing my luck. Only thing that sucked is I could not get the brake disk off, I didn't have the bolts to push it from the hub. I was able to slide the shaft out without removing the disk or the sway bar. The Napa shaft came with a new nut and pin, and all is well.

Thanks for the encouragement.
