F150 Axle - 2nd Gen X

[breakman]

Did massive search and came up dry. I need to know what is involved in installing a full length F150 axle with disc brake setup in my 2001 explorer 2wd prerunner. Figured you guys gotta know. Have to keep my disc brakes in the rear as it's my DD. I know I have to weld tabs under the tube to keep my rig spring under. And that's where my knowledge ends Need the added 6" width.

Plz walk me through guys.
