Like the title states, does anyone know the actual differences between the Ford Explorer and Ford Ranger rear leafs springs?
I know a lot of people do the 4 door Explorer rear leaf swap on the Rangers to either lift the rear or get about the same height while removing the factory block. Im just curious if they are literally the exact same leaf spring, but the Explorer has more leafs? Or if they have the same leaf amount but its actually a different leaf thickness or what?
I have seen to where there are actually different codes for the leafs that correspond with weight ratings but don't know if they match over.
Still searching to find hard evidence of the ratings and leaf codes for each. Seems like each forum I search on or google, each thread says something a little differently.
If it helps I am just looking at 95-01 explorer leafs differences and 98+ ranger differences.
