  1. '85 Ranger 4x4 Explorer 8.8 Axle Swap

    Hello guys, I see that the 8.8 axle for the '95-'03 explorer fits rangers. Does this include the '85 model year? Most people I see asking the question have '88+. This would be very convenient, since I have also been considering a disc brake conversion. Thanks!
