Want to make sure I am ordering the right shaft. They have to different models. I am pretty sure mines the base model (SE) so and it is auto so? I want to make sure to get all parts on hand and right ones. I am relaunching driver and passenger shafys wheel hub assembly and tie rods and lower ball joints. So do I needs and any Berri vs or seals or other parts I am not not thinking about?

Good evening.

No, all the needed parts come with the parts you order. There should be no additional parts needed.

I attached rock auto as they have the best prices for the parts. Could save you a lot of money over parts houses.

Do you need any instructions on performing this repair?

Hey, another question about to order the new unit but I stopped and checked out reviews and it seems like the holed out core of the axle verses solid core ones are my biggest concern over the weight is on the knuckle and transmission. Most people recommend sticking with the factory hallowed out factory cores instead of would solid core design. Would you say that to be try? Because vibration coming off of the solid core.

Sticking to OEM is the best move.

No need to buy Ford parts. You can go to rockauto. Com for all your parts. The aftermarket parts must meet OEM specs.

Let me know what other help you need for this repair.
