Ford Exploder 8.8 rear axle....
The ranger rear ends are very close to the A body rear end width.
1983 to 1992 ranger is 2 inches narrower than 1993 to 2009 however the 92 and back are harder to find because the 8.8 became standard with any 4.0 equipped ranger after 93.
The ranger rear is 28 spline and explorer is 31.
I caint imagine that making a huge difference for use in an A body
The rangers had drums and the explorer had disk brakes on the rear. Again that doesn't bother me because I actually prefer drums on the rear of the car and sometimes in the front too.
I bought this rear for my valiant wagon. Came out of a 92 and it has 3.73 and limited slip and cost me 100. Bucks. Forget paying huge prices for 8.75 stuff and go chirp some tires already :)
