Picking up a 92 f150 ford 8.8 tomorrow with 4.88 gears and a locker, and then getting a 78 bronco dana 44 with 4.88 gears this weekend. my plan as of right now is to run them both full width, the front axle comes with the 4.5 lift springs wristed arm, and long arms and crossmember. not sure...

stock trans will not bolt up and you wouldnt want to use a a4ld anyway there garbage, the debate between carb and fuel injection is on going but best would be fuel injected. theres many write ups on here about doing the 302 swap

theres a forum of a guy who did a write up on putting a 5 speed tranny and transfer case in his v8 swap not sure wich tranny it was though

just picked up a nice brushguard from craigstlist for 70 bucks from a 89 ranger, didnt bolt right up but pretty close, looks damn good though. also found a bw1354 manual transfer case with all the hardware for 100 bucks, did some searching and it seems they are the same from ranger to explorer...

not shown in this photo but i did have to do some mild fender trimming. 4in pro comp lift with dunlop 33x12.50 mud grapplers

jd4242 your right about those spacers i put one on since i had the tire off anyway when i was putting on my steering stabilizer and i couldnt even turn the wheel half way i would have to cut the fenders big time with this lift to clear the fenders. so i took it back off. on a side note the...

damn thats a nice price

ya its an open carrier. so its a pretty easy proccess well what i mean is you dont have to pull everything back out

hey jd4242 if i go the route you went and just put the gear in without the locker, how hard is it down the road to put the locker in, or do you pretty much have to do everyting all over again including getting the master intall kit again

just checked out the aussie lockers i deff like the read out of them better then the lockrites, and there about 20 bucks cheaper

ya like i said im pretty happy with 33s for now and for awhile so ill go with the 4.56 gears, what do you guys thing of the lockrite locker though front and back

thanks 4x4junkie. that is kinda inbetween what i was looking at thatll do thatll do.

ya just looked it up, dont plan on going bigger then 33 for a while so ill go with around a 4.27 gear

so i was doing even more reading, what is your guys input on the cross pin for 4.88 gears would i need a notched one or grind down the gears for a stock one or do i need to worry about it with going 4.88 with a lockrite
