Three series of u-joints are used on 1980-1997 full size Ford 4x4 rear driveshafts. Rear Double Cardan CV driveshafts can be found on most Bronco and shorter wheelbase F-150 trucks. Single Cardan rear driveshafts were used on all F-250/F350 plus all long wheel base F-150 models. Until the early 1990's, Ford rear driveshafts were supplied by Dana, but later production vehicles may have driveshafts supplied by other vendors.
