how is the 5.0 a major mod? as far as the tech library says, if i were to get an explorer from 1999-2000 then everything will be bolt in and connect wires except the rear axle which needs spring mounts welded on the other side.

Really the only things i need to know as of now are if my coil spring setup changes things at all because all the pictures show it with torsion bars but it say nothing about it being an issue and what i need to do to make the driveshaft go from trans to rear axle without the transfer case but thats probrably solved using the existing ranger driveshaft or getting a longer one.
im fairly sure its not a direct bolt in but i'd like to see you prove me wrong.
