You'll have to convert to a 4 link setup

I have seen 8.8 Mustang rearends installed in numorous vehicles. Don't worry about the 4 link setup. Measure the width from axle flange to axle flange. If dimension is acceptable cut the spring purches from original rearend and weld onto the 8.8 in same location (perch width) and bolt in.

an explorer or ranger rear end is much easier to swap in.
