New on here, got a question I’m having trouble finding an answer for. Looking to get a front driveshaft for an 03 extra cab 4.0 manual ranger from a local junkyard for my brother for his birthday. He blew his up and hasn’t had 4wd for more than a couple months now. How interchangeable are the driveshafts on these? I understand 98-11 should be the same, but I imagine auto and manuals have different lengths. And will it change with engine options?
Right now there’s a 98 extra cab 3.0 5 speed at the junkyard closest to me, but I could have one shipped in from a 99 4.0 5 speed with only 80k miles. Unfortunately he no longer has the old driveshaft to measure, and I do not trust the yahoos at the junkyard to give me solid information.
Thanks in advance to all y’all who respond!
