rear axle

let me rephrase that question , are there any explorer or bronco II models that have rear disc brakes that would be an easy swap to an 89 ranger

95-01 is an 8.8 and 31 spline axles. Disk brakes on the XLT's for sure. Only problem is the axle is flipped stock for a 4" drop. For lifted or normal ride height Rangers you would need to cut the spring purches and what not off and reweld them.
