explorer leaf perches are under the axle while rangers are on top, so that is the same as a flip kit


as most junkyard explorer axles are about 150 + replacement pads/rotors 50

so compare 200 to a 700-800 kit


also you upgrade your stock 7.5 axle to an 8.8 with a 31spline (beefier then a stock ranger 8.8 28spline)

Sounds like a better deal to me...I have slotted rotors up front I just wanted something in the back too, plus the extra stopping power.
