Since they are such a popular swap in everything. Blown Coyote AWD Lightning would be cool

How would one go about making an AWD Gen 1? That would be cool.

I think that's a 4x4 setup... You would need the combo out of an Explorer to be AWD...

Isn't AWD just full time 4 wheel drive? Just lock in 4WD high? Is there more to it?

 

[lightn95]

AWD and 4x4 high are different. Typically you can't drive in 4x4 high on dry roads....

Shows that I've never had a 4 wheel drive Is that due to the differentials or the trans?

Most awd transfer cases have a viscous coupling to make up for slight variations between the front wheels and rear.

I'm really surprised it's not more popular in the v8 ranger crowd, 4wd ranger and a explorer transfer case...practically bolts in

Lmao. First time I put my used beater Escape in 4x4 mode (during a light snow, just wanted to check it out) I went right around in a circle, swapped ends due to a slight circumference difference between the front and rear tires.

Aren't you from Tx.... I thought Texans only drive 4x4s...

How did you put it in 4x4 mode? Mine doesn't have any provisions to do that....other then the brake trick to get it to lock in.

What year is your escape?

Ok, scratch that question just found out 2001-2004 were the only ones with a 4x4 switch. Sorry for the slight hi-Jack everyone.
