What parts do I need to take from a 97 explorer rear disc break set up?

Will need the propshaft yolk from a Bronco II and a waist gate from a turbo Super Coop.

VT_Don, given your amazing dry wit and sarcasm, I can't tell if the spelling errors in your posts are purposeful or not, but I like 'em, so please don't stop.

To the OP, you'll need everything from the housing out, so backing plates, calipers, pads, rotors and parking brake components. The Explorer flange pattern matches that of the EB medium-duty housings, otherwise known as a Ford 9" big-bearing Torino or "new-style" housing end. There's actually a pretty decent and recent thread about axle housing identification started by Jim at Wild Horses 4x4 that I would suggest you check out. There's a fair amount of information on the Explorer brake swap if you do a search, but there are also plenty of helpful people too...and VT_Don...we love you man.
