- '97 Mountaineer 5.0V8 AWD
I took a brief look around and found that nobody had really mentioned this, if I missed something than this will just be a friendly reminder. Remember, all of us that have AWD equipped Explorer's/Mountaineer's, to always keep your tires inflated equally and tread wear as even as possible, this is of course most important between the front and rear tires. As a difference of 3/16" or more in total circumference between the front and rear will cause your VC to "think" that you need 4x4 when you don't and prematurely engage, repeatedly, shortening the lifespan of your viscous coupling unit.
