No. The Explorer 8.8" would be better. They are the same width, same bolt pattern, etc. Spring perches are on top on the Ranger model. Underneath on the Explorer. But that doesn't matter, since they'd have to be removed anyhow. The Ranger axles didn't come with disc brakes. And, as I said, the Explorers were 31 splined, the Rangers were only 28 splined.
