What engine do you have? If you have a 4.0L, 3.73's should be fine. If you have a 3.0L or 2.3L (I'm sorry if you do), an upgrade to 4.10's or lower would be nice to have. Is yours 2WD or 4WD? If it's 4WD, a gear swap is gonna cost quite a bit since you have the front gears to change as well.
As for the Explorer, 30x9.5's will work fine on rims with the stock offset. Check out www.explorerforum.com for lots of Explorer info, great site over there.
