Default 1996 aluminum drive shaft
Hey has anyone replaced their drive shaft with a ford aluminum one? I'm getting ready to do it to my car and just wondering if there's any thing special I need to do to insure its balanced properly. I know the factory balances the drive shafts when they install them on new cars.

is it new?
if-so, nothing really needs tobe checked.... if it used, check the u-joints and makesure it has the correct transmission slip yoke for your car..... you will need 4 new driveshaft to rear flange bolts, part # N800594-S100, @$2.00 each....

Hiya, welcome to the site. No balancing is usually needed for it, I have one and it went right in.
