All, I am looking for a little advice.

I was changing the oil today on my 93 F350, and noticed the front axle stub was broke as shown in pic. Can anyone advise on if the 93 came with 30 or 35 spline outers?
Also, how dangerous is this to drive?

No idea on spline count, if that lets go @ speed yer gunna be destroying more parts.
I've seen, hubs,knuckles, inner shafts all (individually) taken out from a busted cross ( u_joint)

OR
Leave the hub unlocked, run a zip tie through the u joint opening to keep it from spinning, and you can keep driving it as 2wd for a while. Sorry don't have answer about splines...

Thanks everyone for the information! I am having to get replacement parts online...no local part stores seem to carry parts needed. Hopefully it will hold together until parts get here because unfortunately my other vehicle's fuel pump is out.

Best price I find on axle shafts is amazon. Yukon or US Gear alloys typically
