What 8.8s will swap directly?

Preferably something with 4.10s and LSD? Will explorer rears fit or are they too narrow?

Explorer is too narrow. A rear axle from another F150 or Bronco from this vintage will work. Good luck finding a 4.10. Pretty rare unless from a Lightning. Then they are priced like gold.
