Yes, for whatever reason Ford went to a two-piece drive shaft in 02.

I have been told it was for NVH reasons, but I never really looked into it, as I planned to replace it all along.

I assume no one read this post. The question is answered here by the man that knows. The 2 piece driveshaft IS the "enhanced balancing device"...

As you could see from posts, some of us did, but we found it too cryptic and request for clarification went unanswered.
