Hello everyone.
I am considering adding a tow package to my Explorer. I know that it consists of 3.73's a transmission oil cooler and the class three hitch.
I don't plan on doing the gears as I don't tow over 3,500lbs often (once or twice a year maybe) so instead I was going to compensate by putting a larger trans cooler on it. Also, on my old Explorer that had the towing package I towed with 245 70 16s instead of the 245's so I assume that brought the theoretical axle gearing somewhere in the 3.6x range anyway.
What would be the biggest trans cooler I could get for this thing? What does it actually consist of to install. I couldn't find any threads on here about it, only threads on adding a second cooler to trucks that had the tow package already.
Oh and also the hitches are just a simple bolt on swap right? I know the 2006 and up are welded on but I believe the 02-05 aren't.
Thanks everyone
