8.8 swap

How did you account for the offset? I'm thinking about doing this swap on my duster, but the a-body width axle is a little too narrow for my wheels and it sounds like cutting down the axle makes the 8.8 the same width as an a-body axle.

He did not cut it down. He ran it as is out of the Explorer. That puts the rear at 59 1/2" wide.
