if its from an 88, its probably not an 8.8, its more likely a 7.5 and it wont be as wide as your axle. i do believe it will bolt in though. it will not have provisions for abs.
find something from a 93-08 so it will be the correct width and bolt right in.

The Explorer axle won't bolt in though.
Unless you'll be running tires bigger than 33s, the Ranger 8.8 should be fine (and it bolts in).
