Default Junk Yard Parts

I am going to call some junk yards tomorrow for a exploder intake (2-97 or older) and a 4WD areostar drive shaft. Is there anything else I should look for? I am not worried about getting injectors or differential parts.

I was hoping that would be on the intake. I know you can make them work on a foxbody but I don't know about a SN95, hopefully it can be made to work.

Dang, I would have never guessed...

Does it weigh the same as the FRPP piece?

..I think the TB can work on a SN if you use a '87-93 Fox body throttle cable....
