Hi everyone. I'm going to a pick your part junkyard this weekend to get an Explorer 8.8 axle for a swap into my ranger. I have read around online about it including the page on this website about it. I'm gonna use this kit for all the new spring pads, shock mounts, u bolts etc:

My main question is about the brakes. I know the 1995+ explorer axles have disc brakes so what will I have to do to hook them up to my ranger? I also know the explorer e brake hookups are different so when I pull the axle out of the junkyard I'm gonna make sure to grab the explorer e brake lines. What is the most common way of approaching this e brake issue? Thank you all in advance.
