Help Me Choose

I'm looking at two explorers for a hunting fishing bush vehicle.
#1 is a 1996 sport 5 speed manual
#2 is a 94 4 door 5speed manual.
I know the 2 door will be handier, I now drive a 99 sport as a daily driver.
My big question, which one will be tougher, tranny, front end, body and frame?

TTB is tougher than IFS. Transmissions are identical. Body and frame probably equal.

+1^ plus you can lift it as well as bolt in a solid axle a lot easier and cheaper.
