Explorer rear end ?
I'm sure it's on here some where but I can't find it. Installing the Explorer rear into to our F100's, will the drive shaft match up? Are the u-joints the same size? Is the yoke to center line of the axle length about the same? 69 shortbed stepside, C4, std 9" rear. If anyone has a link to info on this subject that would be great also. Thanks.........Rick

You will need the 8.8 u joint flange off the old drive shaft for sure.
