Default Interchangeable parts thread (F150 - Explorer)

I've found some Parts from the Explorer fits to the F150
this is helpfull in Areas where F150 are only as Import available like Europe.
I wish that everyone who found interchangeable parts, posts it her in this thread.

I've found:

the lower Ball Joints of forward axle (have the same Part number at after marked parts sellers)

Almost all of the stuff is interchangeable, they were built on the same frame

really? the 150 is much more bigger....
understand me right.
The explorer is a monster for European ratios
The 150 is a standard Truck for US ratios.
and the explorer is a Houswife, shopping, little, tiny, truck for US ratios (i think so)
But the 150 is a beast here in europe.
(50% of Parking garages are not accessible with it :-) )

we (germans) can build Beautiful Cars with awesome precision (ok in the past ;-)
but here the biggest is a Range rover or a HiLux, or something like that.
and the Greens hate the users of such Cars.

No your thinking the expedition.
The explorer is built on more of a ranger platform.

Yea I guess so. I wish we had the Hilux over here. I see them all the time when I'm overseas for work and wish I could bring one back.
