    so I've been slowly getting the back half of my drivetrain together in the comet, and one of the last items to check off the list is a new driveshaft. I was going to pony up for an aluminum one from ie driveshaft, but I was told sn95 mustang shafts fit our cars. if that's the case, wouldn't one of those sweet a$$ ford racing pieces for a 96-04 work? I thought the mustang ones used a flange type mount at the diff as opposed to the u bolt type my 9" uses. anyone wanna weigh in on this?

    has to be swapped for the...u bolt type...:yup:
    depends on the yoke on the 9" as to if it will fit then (too long/short).

    makes sense... I kinda figured the late model mustangs used the flange type end. ill probably be better off spec'ing one from ie.
