Comes up with a 98 & 99 explorer. These should have the 8.8 you need.
Bring someone with you to the yard to help you check the gear ratio.
Out the door with brakes & all will run you around $250 unless you have a coupon from a previous visit there. Call them & they'll tel ya the exact price.
Pull the correct one, bring it & your old axle to my garage along with a pack of 4.5" cut-off wheels & I'll get the perches on the 8.8 for ya for cheap.
I have have a grinder/cutoff tool I could cut off the ford mounts and the jeep perches. And I can also borrow my buddies welder, thanks for the info and your offer to help. I will take a look at that site. I know there are plenty of write-ups on 8.8 conversion but what are the necessary steps?
