(Personally I'd try it without just to see if I got lucky)

As you have noted, you do not feel comfortable changing either the transmission or rear axle yokes.
Given that, the simple solution is, per both mach4 and dude99, to use the front, internally splined piece of the driveline from the 617 engine/trans package, and the remainder of the driveline that is original to the SE chassis.
