What is worn, u-joint, CV joint, slip yoke?
Check out a local driveline shop, they can usually do the rebuild.

This may sound weird but whats worn appears to a little ball in the middle of what I think is the cardan jiont. Before I remove the shaft, the slop seemed to come from that ball. Any thoughts?

Should be able to rebuild the CV joint, or else pick up a front shaft from most any '86-'95 4WD truck and swap that part out.
