If so there are aftermarket spacer but none to thick

A Mustang shaft won't fit due to Thunderbirds/Cougars having a longer wheel base.

Check out Denny's http://www.dennysdriveshaft.com/index.html,  I don't know how much they are now but years ago I looked into driveshafts and spoke with these guys and it seemed like the way to go.  If you do get a quote on one let us know what they go for now..
