Best 95+4wd/V8

[11b4v]

I have a 93XLT 4wd that I use as a daily driver and weedend offroader. Since I've paid it off, I've added winch, rack, and lighting.

I am considering upgrading to a newer used X and wanted to know which 95+ Explorer V8 / AWD is considered the best for off road.

Or

How good is the AWD for offroad, or how do you make one more offroad friendly (lockers?)

Thanks in advanve, mv

I've seen the AWD do some pretty cool stuff. The thing is, it's basically like 4 wheel high all the time. The only thing you lose out on is that low end tourqe you get with 4 wheel low. I know Heath has a 96 AWD, so you might wanna talk to him. I've heard the topic of lockers on an AWD a couple times, and I don't know that much about 'em. Maybe someone else can help you with that...Hope I helped.
