The guy at the junk yard said it was from a 93 aerostar AWD. I got a 89 GT T-5 trans and stock rearend housing

 

[85GTlover]

Thanks that is great to know as they are $200 at least and people say.....the prices are going up....you are positive the length is exact?.......like I said I have read others have had to pay $$$$ to cut them they say....not doubting but.....86-93 all have 8.8's
and unless these guys are talking autos.......I wonder.

You expected a direct bolt in from an Aerostar driveshaft? Keep dreaming If that was true, there wouldn't be so many people buying these Ford Racing driveshafts for a ridiculous amount.

 

[shawn13]

Man, they're only $159.00, that's cheap if you ask me. Ask the Camero boyz how much they're paying for driveshafts, that's riduculous.

i heard you need to put a different slip yoke on it or something. there was a thread on here where somebody did this and had the part number that you are looking for.
