plenty of helpers. Try explorer 911 forum. Sounds like hubs could be it to me. Shift motors are common culprits too. Post your own thread and others will help out.

91-94 Explorers. I don't know about Rangers though. I think they used a Dana 28 instead of a 35. Bronco II's had manual hubs but I don't know if those would work.

...93-97 Ranger's use the same hub as the 91-94 X's...I believe if you look thru this thread it may mention all the vehicles you can snag them from...

Hmmm. My 2.3L Ranger doesn't have a front axle 
I would say that you need to figure out what a Dana 35 looks like or stick to rangers with a 4.0 and Explorers. Tbars- did all the 93-97 4x4 rangers have the 35? I have not seen a Pre 93 ranger sporting a 35 unless it had a 4.0. I do know there are some hybrid 28/35s out there too and thier hubs should work as they are a 35 with a 28 center section if I remember right.

...Yes, mines a hybrid...but the hubs are the same...
..."The Dana 28 was replaced in 1990 with the Dana 35 TTB as Ford introduced the 4.0L engine to replace the 2.9L. The Dana 28 didn't completely go away though. A version of it found its way in to the 1990 - 1997 Ford Aerostar AWD mini-vans. It also found it's way back in to the 4-cylinder (and some 3.0L V6) Ford Rangers from 1993 - 1997. The 1993 - 1997 Rangers can be deceiving. Some owners believe because they have a 1990 or newer Ranger that they have a Dana 35. Although their 1993 - 1997 4-cylinder Ranger may look like it has a Dana 35, it's really a Dana 35 housing using Dana 28 components."

...Try finding the correct parts at an auto parts store...
...These are known as the Dana 35 Hybrid...They are easily spotted by the smooth Dana 35 housing as opposed to a ribbed (standard) Dana 35 housing...
...In keeping with the question that was asked, these hybrids and all other 93-97 rangers use the same hubs as you can find on the 91-94 Explorers..

Great thread doing it my self right now
I am currently doing this conversion using 2 warn hubs off a 94 ranger I got lucky anf found in a jy in the south bronx. $150 for both wheel assemblies (outer?inner hub, caliper, rotor, spindle) they cut the differential behing the spindle @ the U-Joint. Anyhow this excellent thread http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=122696 made this a breeze it is a tutorial for a front brake job but it has very detailed instruction and pics on taking out the auto hubs. I will post pics of my project later.
