Adam, Ill Call In A Few Minutes

 

No problem, I had used the stock style axles from a Lincoln rear and they were also too wide. I hated it and could not wait to find what I needed.

Any ways, good luck. I think you have to use the driver's side from a Ranger or the passenger side from an Aerostar van, but I'm not 100%. I read it some where, but do not know of anyone that used the Aerostar axles.

To convert the rear end to 5-lugs you need to replace the 4-lug axles and drums with 5-lug units. The axles that are needed will be either off of a Ranger, Bronco II or Aerostar van.
From an '83 to '92 4 cylinder or 3.0L V6 Ranger/Bronco II with a 7.5" rear end you will need two driver's side axles. Only the driver's side will work as the pumpkin on these rear ends is offset and the axles are different lengths (you need the longer of the two axles). It should measure 29-5/32".
From an Aerostar you will need two of the passenger side axles from an 86 to 97 model.
The axles are all the same so they can be mix-matched (i.e. - one driver's side axle from a Ranger and one passenger side axle from an Aerostar).
