Anyone have a lead on getting new or rebuilt IRS shafts for the old style Thunderbird/Lincoln reared? The Driveshaft Shop doesn't show anything

These guys used to do axles for the T-Bird stuff.

Rich,
I might have the pieces. The axles will be too long, but I should have the buckets, boots and internal pieces.
Let me know what you need. These were NAPA parts and always worked well for me.

Thanks Jim. I don't really know that I need anything right now. I just know that I seem to have a bit more play than I remember when I build it. Just looking to prepare myself if something gets worse. 400+ hp, super sticky Avons and my lead foot eventually is going to require attention. The tri-lobs and outer joints are about all there is, and the left outer joint seems to have a little play. Maybe replace everything this winter?
Have any idea what you would take?
i.e.427, thanks, I saved the link

Rich,
I went through the same conditions with my first SPF cars, something about having too much fun.
I'll look through the parts bin.
PM inbound.

Sent you a text. Why is having too much fun always costly. :rolleyes:
