Driveshaft fitment question

[reginald fairfield]

Will a driveshaft from a 1995 explorer fit a 1999 ranger with the 7.5?

 

[reginald fairfield]

Oh and it is an extended cab
as well.

Another question: are the driveshafts for 7.5 and 8.8 axles identical, if both are for extended cabs? Help appreciated

no - wheel base is different

length should be the same, only difference may be u-joints or flange sizes.

Thanks alot, anyone else know about the u-joints or flange sizes as kunar said?

As long as both are from the same or a similar year truck, they should be the same.
