Re: D35c to Ford 8.8 Swap. Why bother?
No V8s, the Explorer is based on the Ranger truckette. The axle is
narrower than yours, that's why they had such a problem rolling over
with a flat tire.

There are V8s in Explorers as an option. Are you saying it's narrower
than a TJ, but wider than a later model CJ7/8?

It's very slightly narrower than a TJ's axle... but with the typical
backspacing of an aftermarket wheel, the wheels are about the same distance
apart once mounted on the 8.8.
