If you have the 8.8 with discs, why not give it a run? There are driveshaft/u-joint work arounds, 8.8s are commonly swapped into Jeeps. Travis..

I put an 8.8 out of an 95 exployer and it fit perfect. I had to cut off the mounts that came on the 8.8 and add the mopar spring perches.I also had to have a custom driveshaft built. I have about 125.00 total in the rearend. This website was very helpful.http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/Explorer8_8.html
