If the 96 explorers had the IFS I doubt you'd want to carry that over.

I have no clue when ford changed out the TTB.

Explorers had the torsion bar SLA front suspension starting in 1995, so no, you probably wouldn't want to transfer that to the B2500. You can use everything else though. Just find the solid axle of your choice and do an SAS.
