When Swapping an 80e into an extended cab truck, is the only thing that needs to be done to the factory drive shaft a new yoke and u joint?

The 80 is longer so your ds will need to be cut down.
DS doesnt need to be cut in a ext cab that has a 2 piece DS...at least on mine it didnt as it has enough play in the center section to work perfectly, got a yoke and new u-joint though so yes you are correct on what needs to be done
