Default 31 spline differential

i think my diff is shot. figure it cuz ive been a one wheel wonder latley.


im going the route of 5 lug 31 spline axles .new diff. gears, and 5 lug drums. need some help though.



ok im going to use the 9" 5 lug Ranger drums
possibly an explorer 31 spline diff
4.10 or 3.73 ford racing gears
but where can i get 31 spline axles that are the stock length of my stock ones in my 88


if you have any info on my project please elaborate, i need to know what will work and what wont. THANKS

junkyard way, go with drivers side alxes from a 83-92 ranger with a 7.5 inch rear end or passenger axles from an 86-97 aerostar.

thanks for the info on the years of the ranger and aerostar that will be very useful if i stick with 28 spline.
