I am always the one to try new things also.
I had a 89 2wd Ext Cab Ranger that I put a 302/C4 in. I also had to change out the 7.5 rear to a 9inch. I actually broke the pinion shaft on the 7incher. The motor was a straight forward swap. All I did to the rear was spring perches.
Umm, 4wd? I think that would be wild. The only thing is you would probibly need a Dana 44 front 9inch rear and a NP205 transfer case. This might last longer with serious hole shots.
I dont know what type of transfer cases are in a Exploder. I bet it would not last very long though.
