driveshaft diffences

[IMenriched]

Is there a difference between drive shaft length from auto tranny and manual tranny?? (1st gen Ranger 86-88' vintage 2 piece)

'88, no.

'85-'87, yes.

The driveshaft spline is also different between them on 2WD applications, so the '88 ones still wouldn't interchange if it's for a 2WD.

was getting conflicting info...that may have helped clear it up.
