I just swapped in a 3.55 LSD rear end into my 05 Mercury Grand Marquis. I ordered the Fabtech spacer and a hybrid u joint. This should be a direct fit. The new hybrid u joint is seemingly to wide to fit in the yoke with both retaining clips in. I can get one, but I am FAR from able to even see the recess were the other retaining clip snaps into. On my last and final attempt to make it fit, the one ring i can install, cracked out the yoke and came flying out. Now I need a slip yoke and I still dont have the U joint problem fixed. I went backwards. I am beyond frustrated with this simple swap. Any thoughts??
James Elliott yes it's the cheapest option vs aftermarket ones You get them out of 1998 to 05 cvpi im unsure of the earlier Aero style Crown Vics driveshafts The ones you look for don't have the police writing on them neither paint strips
James Elliott with that 4:56 I would definitely get a taller Tire in the rear 28 inch or 29 inch it will not affect the way the car drives it will allow you to take full advantage of those 4:56 gears

stay down brotha good info
BST Ford Channel thanks you keep up the good work I see what you're trying to do
@@crownvictorialifestyle4421 and I thank you I will always support
Does these aluminum drive shafts have cardboard inside of them for isolating noise
I have no idea I would prefer a metal matrix one
Hey how ya doin sir? I was wondering if you could send me n the right direction on wat website I can buy 1
You might have to find a local yard that has Vic's and get one 2005 and down
Adtr .net might have some
Ok thanks Ima need it for my 03 Mercury Marauder!
So what was the top speed with the aluminum metal Matrix driveshaft with a 3.27 gear in 2005
The 05 had 3.55 120 mph is were the computer governed at
@@crownvictorialifestyle4421 what if it had 3.27 Gear with the same metal Matrix driveshaft what would the top speed be
So with 4.56 I need a steel matrix drive shaft to top out no vibration
James Elliott yes it's the cheapest option vs aftermarket ones
You get them out of 1998 to 05 cvpi
im unsure of the earlier Aero style Crown Vics driveshafts The ones you look for don't have the police writing on them neither paint strips
@@crownvictorialifestyle4421 im sure I'll be doing 120 130 romps from time to time thks.
James Elliott no problem if you need any other information jus let me no
James Elliott with that 4:56 I would definitely get a taller Tire in the rear 28 inch or 29 inch it will not affect the way the car drives it will allow you to take full advantage of those 4:56 gears
