    09 PI alum drive shaft in a 91 Box?

    Hi,
    Will I be able to put a 09 PI aluminum drive shaft into a 1991 Grand Marquis with a stock AOD?
    What mods are required?
    Thank you,
    Mike
    90 Colony Park LS with GT 40 heads and intake. HO cam, 65 MM TB, 67 MM EGR spacer. Has a 75 MM Pro Flow mass air sensor. Borla XS mufflers. 3L55. Shift kit, 2000 stall Tq convertor...Bilstein shocks, front and rear sway bars.
    90 Colony Park LS 64,000 miles all original. 3L55 tow package....front and rear sway bars.
    91 Grand Marquis GS....HO motor..Bilstein shocks poly bushings and police swaybars. This one handles the best.

    Should already have one.

    An aluminum one that is.
    1990 MGM: $50 E7 heads, HO cam, Holley SysteMAX lower intake, HO upper intake with an Explorer TB. LSC ECM. Lincoln logs into stock dual exhaust. K&N drop in air filter. Wide ratio AOD, 2400 converter with a 3.08 one tire fire out back. Car is less slow now. Then there's the '92 Beater. Dual 2.25" exhaust with shiny tips. Rumbles nice. Super slow. Burns oil too.

      No, it's too long.
      You would need to have the 09 shaft shortened.
      Some 91's came with an aluminum driveshaft, best to find one of those.

          My '90 has an aluminum drive shaft as well. I think it was a 90-91 thing, as my 92 has a steel one.

            Interesting, I knew Lincoln's and and vans all took longer trans output shafts/tail housings and drive shafts, but I figured all CVs and GMs were interchangeable

              5.0 vs 4.6
              lots of differences there.
