I was searching the forum here for information on the AWD aerostart Al. driveshaft and the information was incomplete.
It seems to be commonly known that the 92-95 driveshaft can be used, but the yoke is different. If you reuse the yoke from your mustang along with the 353 U-joint from napa, it will bolt in.
However, no information was given for the 96-97 AWD aerostar driveshaft. I picked up one of these this weekend, for about 20$ from the local scrap yard. It already has the proper 27/28 spline yoke and needs no modification to install on a mustang. Also, the ends are securely welded on, as opposed to previous driveshafts which were pressed on. I'm not sure if the 92-95 driveshaft is pressed or welded though.
Just thought I would spread the information as it has never been mentioned here on stangnet.
