x2 on the mark williams has made a couple for me and the are very nice pieces.
At that length I would also think 4130 would be the choice.
Sounds like a Top Sportsman deal.....don't forget the rear drive shaft loop:

 

Drive shaft

I use Strange driveshafts (just because Bears Perf is in Canada) Definatly go with the 1350 series u-joints and solid forged chromoly weld joints and yolks. If you can fit the tube in your chassis go with the 3 1/2" chromoly shaft tube as well.
