Does anyone have the technical specs on the Thunderbird IRS front flange that connects to the drive shaft?

The driveline place here won't start on my driveshaft until I provide them the specs. I also need the specs for a 2005 Mustang TR3650 5 speed, similar flat flange.

Or contact info for a driveline shop that can build a driveline knowing the length and what the rear end and transmission are out of.50071

Should look just like the attached picture.

Thanks
Joel

Denny's Driveshaft (http://www.dennysdriveshaft.com/c6_cobra_kit_car_driveshafts.html) and The Driveshaft Shop (http://www.driveshaftshop.com/kit-car-misc-parts/factory-five) are two often used sources for driveshafts for our builds. Neither website talk about that somewhat unique TR3650 model requiring a flange on the transmission end and a slip driveshaft. But I have to think they're experienced to know what you need if you call them.

FWIW: a local (SoCal) speed shop owner recommended Coast Drive-line (in Ventur), whose products are offered online at www.northridge4x4.com/coast_driveline.

My 89 Thunderbird 8.8 driveshaft flange is identical to my mustang 8.8 solid axle
