On the F-150 that came with the 8.8" rearend (84-96), I'm pretty sure that they all came with drum brakes. Could you take the disc brakes from an Explorer and put them on the F-150 axle, or are the housing ends different? I thought I had read that the Explorer 8.8 tapers at the end and that the F-150 has straight tubes? Does anyone know? I would like to avoid having to purchase a $300 kit if possible. And yes, I know that they're different bolt patterns and would have to get rotors to match the 5X5.5 of the F-150.
