This is on my 96 B2300 2WD Xtra cab. The 2 piece shaft had a bad center bearing and the u-joints were getting tired again so I just figured it was time to do the one piece driveshaft conversion. I bought a sweet one piece aluminum shaft from the local wrecker. It came out of a 2000 ranger Xtra cab 2WD. The shaft is almost exactly 3 inches too short. Anybody know why? Is the Ranger a different wheelbase then the Mazda Xtra cab for Xtra cab?
BTW the new shaft is 64-1/2 center of the u-joints and it needs to be 67-1/2 (or really close).
