The front of the suspension is the same as on the rangers, except the back is different. The rangers are spring over axle, whereas explorers are spring under axle.
As for the add a leaf, I have never done one. I can't, because I have a monleaf. It can only be done with the 4 door, or the new sports that had a full leaf pack. From what I have heard, it is harder than installing shackles, but not too bad. If you do the add a leaf, you should do a writeup!
