Does the driveshaft from a 1990 5.0 fit a 2000 4.6?

Except for the shifter!

I know the 3650 is completely different, but I thought the T5 and T45 were pretty close to the same.



Shifter's will interchange...that's about it.

The internal design of the t-5 and t-45 is similar, but nothing will exchange between the two and dimensions are different.

A simple search on "driveshaft" resulted in the above thread. ;)

Thanks man! The whole reason I came up with this question is because I have a buddy that is willing to give me an aluminum driveshaft from a 90 Fox Body. I think I'm gonna have to check this out for myself now. Thanks for the info! :nice:

Yes, fits fine. I have a buddy with a 2000 that has one and I just put one in my 97. You just swap the yokes with your stock one.
What he said. A simple question about a drive shaft that turns into transmission shifters and trans internals, or just no answers without any reason why. The drive shafts are identical, it’s the yoke that’s different. The transmission output shaft on the 79-95 cars is spline 28T and the 96-04 cars are splined 31T. So just switch the yokes.
