It can be done, but it takes some custom work to make it fit. Your best bet is to go for an aluminum driveshaft. Spidershafts make a good setup.

I see no reason to go with a GT takeoff. It's not much better than the V6 d/s.

You can find them at several places, Ive heard this place is reputible. Leonard Racing Products

Powerhouse is also a good brand which is a little cheaper. 2005+ Mustang V6 Aluminum Driveshaft

Just check around a bit. About all aluminum driveshafts are the same, so just find a good price.
