Hi I just got a 99 ranger extended cab.
I also gave the chance to pickup a 00 explorer real cheap (300.00) bad transmission.
Besides the seats and center console, rim and tires, anything else I can use?
I can handle swapping out anything mechanical wise.
Would the rear end fit (disc brakes upgrade)?
TIA


Found the tech article for the rear end swap.
Anything else I can use off the explorer?

You can use the knuckles and bearings to upgrade the front to a live axle if you have 4x4.

You know the rear axle needs some work to go in.
