You will also need a 31 spline carrier. Their is an Explorer model that came with a 31 spline carrier from the factory.

This could save you some money.

...if you had a bearing failure...the proper way to repair is to remove the entire rear axle, disassemble it, and power wash it to remove all the tiny flecks of metal that have contaminated the entire interior of the housing.

My experience is the '06< 31 spline axles will not fit properly, as they hit the parking brakes. I have posted a very long thread on the swap.
