Flange mount, no more ubolts. Best bang for the buck no question. The offset diff is absolutely nothing to worry about, think about it... hitting a bump changes the "driveshaft angles" lol. I've swapped an explorer 8.8 into a ranger, a jeep wrangler, and my 68 stang. Haven't broken one yet.
so im confused?? explorer or mustang...??? do you have any pics of your explorer swap... how much is the center offset? where drive shaft is??

I really dont want to do a nine inch because of cost and finding one is a little harder than a 8.8, the 8.8 are a dime a dozen.
