Also you said the drive shaft spins, is this with wheels on the ground or up on jack stands? And is your truck four wheel?

Yes truck is 4 wheel. Drive line spins when truck was on ground and the knuckle spins after I took the drive line out. Yes 4 wheel drive.

the axles are fine the ring gear is fine aim your direction to the pinion gear or the yoke may have stripped the pinion shaft where the yoke is just spinning and not turning the pinion gear

there is a nut inside the yoke that holds it to the pinion you need to remove that yoke so you can check the splines on the pinion shaft

Did you read my post above? Check the stub shaft/slip yoke on driveshaft. If it is stripped no amount of rear end work will make the truck move
