the f150 front driveshaft will work because the transmission and transfer case you use behind the 5.0L are the same as the ones in the 4.6 F-150
The rear driveshaft you just need to measure from the flange or (slip yoke) to the rear axle flange, then take that measurement and the F-150 driveshaft to your local driveline shop

The F150 shaft uses a tapered tube, so they will have to re tube the entire shaft = $$$$ usually around $250-400
There are many F150 lenghts and there are many Ranger lenghts so it is best to build each rear shaft after the drivetrain and transfer case are in the truck
I have also had to shorten the front F-150 shaft by about 1/2" of so. To do this you take it apart at the slip yoke and cut a little off each end.....
