I have a question concerning the front differentials on second generation ford explorers. I know that the second gen explorers have a dana 35 front differential, but where things get confusing is the 2/3 gen ford explorer 2 door sport. 2001-2003. in 02 (from my research, the 4 door switched to the DANA super 30 front differential, basically a 35 with smaller carrier and same shafts, but did the 2 door as well being that it still had essentially the same drive train as the second gens, but an updated body? If anyone can chime in that owns an 02 sport 2 door as to what front differential is underneath, it would be greatly appreciated. Same goes for an 01 4 door, as some of the charts say even it has a "super 30"
 












Sports and sport tracs both had d35s until 2005
 






Thanks for the reply boomin, That's kind of what I figured. Anything still running leaves in the back should have a d35 I assume?
