Yup, only 4WD system available on '02+ V6 Mounty's, and V8s for that matter, avaible on Explorers V6 and V8.

You mean AWD like the 96-01 V8 Explorers are? If you mean AWD all the time.. there is no SOHC with that option.


Also, I thought the 02+ V8s were true 4wd?! :confused:

Yeah, just an idle thought recently.
Wondering if I get really bored one day if I would be able to bolt in the transfer case.

That's what I thought also.

My SOHC has auto 4wd.

They now have the option for AWD on the new 4-door Explorers. And its the standard "fourwheel drive" on the mountaineers. Regular 4WD(Control Trac) is also and option. Check their website, says right on there and I've seen the AWD emblem on the back of several Xs around here.

BTW- This was only an option for '03 and on. It was not available except on the mountaineer on the '02s. And you can't get control in the mounty's.
