I just got back from driving my 90 f150 to and from the coast to go boating...

This was the 1st drive i've taken since swapping the tranny, and fixing leak after leak around tranny pan/main seal/transfer case seals ect...

I noticed before the trip the driveline somehow got bent during the process of swapping it, and have not yet replaced it...

When i returned yesterday from the coast, parked the truck, today i noticed tranny fluid underneath it.. I look under to see the entire driveline covered with fluid, as well everything around it includeding 1 of the gas tanks...

From what i can tell... due to the driveline being bent, its pulling fluid out of the transfercase, cause of the wobble, and its spinning back, covering everything/anything from the transfer case collar, back to the rear diff... At 1st i thought my rear diff blew up, but its still driving, so this is the only thing i can think that would have spread such amount of fluid, just put a QT in, and it will take some time to clean off all the fluid...

Mean While i want to replace the driveline, to see if a stright one will prevent this pull of fluid from the transfer case...

Its a 90 F150 with 5.0 engine E40d tranny 4x4, anyone know what other year F150 and what other style motor ect will have the same driveline ? so i can go get one from the pull yard.

Anyone know what year/model rear driveline's will work with my 90 4x4 5.0 f150 ?

up to 1996 will fit, but it has to be the same two piece or one piece, you have an E4od, so its usually a two piece. Good luck with the pull-a-part places, most of them pick the vehicles up with front loading fork lifts and destroy the driveshafts. I had to go to a specialty place (Houston Drive Train) and get mine rebuilt. 250 for an all steel build.

Somewhere along the years the design of how the driveshaft bolts to the rear end was changed, but I don't know exactly what year it was changed. The difference is that the older trucks have the u-bolts that bolt the universal joint to the rear, while the newer trucks have a flange attached to the rear u-joint and the flange bolts to the rear.

My rear Drive line is a single piece... I just don't wanna go pull one that doesn't work... I'm going to measure it, and take pictures of both end, then hopefully find a replacement for 30 bucks at the pull yard.
