    The Door stickers will list the axle. Check the door before diving underneath to verify.

    Damn nice video!! Thanks, I needed this. Going to remove a rear end from an 98 explorer that's an hour away, and it's middle of winter and freezing cold! So nice to know and see what I've got to do before getting there!! Thanks for sharing!

    Maybe comment on how you determined it was a good rearend. With it off the ground how much play can you expect from left or right wheels

    Any chance in a GC8 update video? I recently purchased one as my own as my first car and would love to see what you do to yours to fix some of the problems (I.e. rust in the rear quarter)

    Don't think it's mentioned in the video or comments, but from my limited research before doing this, I believe the diff bolts are 5/16. At least I hope so, bc that's the socket I'm bringing.

    I would have kept the adapter for the drive line, then just get a U joint to fit that.
