Bronco II axle swap

[Leadchunker]

I picked up a 8.8 rear axle from a 95 Explorer about two years ago with 3.73 gears and disc brakes. Today I found a Dana 35 3.73 from a 1990 Ranger, front springs, Ford 7.5 rear axle from same vehicle, front springs, lift gate, skid plates and a new aluminum radiator for a 2.8. I am planning to swap the 8.8 and dana 35 in the near future. If anyone needs a dana 28 for a Bronco 2 or a 7.5 rear end let me know since I will have two of them. I just have to figure out how to put manual locking hubs on the axle I bought.

Check the tech section; Axles, Warn Jeep hubs for Dana 35.
I bought these and installed when I swapped in Dana 35 TTB from '92 Explorer.

Lots of good info on locking hubs in the tech library.

Good luck.
