I had to cut and re weld the linkage in the the proper place. On the explorer, the throttle cable pulls from the opposite side. You can also remove the linkage from the stocker and weld that on to the explorer one too(I didn't want to cut up my stock one)

As far as the TPS goes, the explorer one is a little different. The mustang TPS will work, but I couldn't get mine to the proper setting, so I just used the explorer one, but I had to swap the plugs out. That was easy, just pull the wires out of the explorer TPS plug, then do one at a time on the mustang one, and repin it to fit the explorer one(the wires are the same, just the plug is different) I did one at a time so I wouldn't mix them up.

Let me know if you need help.
