uh, dual ford 8.8 posi on demand, ?? with 3.55s second strongest rear next to the Ford 9" why is that not 4x4?
Since when is a 9" the first strongest? ever heard of a D60, 14bolt(FF), rockwell?
Cant Argue with the F/R Solid axles but I'm not planning on Rock crawling.
You have this backwards, IFS tends to work better for crawling/off camber situations, with proper ground clearance. SFA/SRA tend to be stronger, are cheaper, and are easier for the average joe to work on.
a Real Transfer Case ( someone educate me on this? ) I have dual Ford 8.8 diffs between mine.
You stated that yours is AWD, and now that I think about it, I thought they were 4wd. AWD vehicles do not have a 2 speed transfer case, they use a open type center differential to send power to the front and rear differentials, others use a viscous coupling. A true 4wd vehicle has a selectable, Dual range HI/LO (minimum) transfer case that will send power to both the front and rear differentials equally when engaged. The AWD setup sends power to the route of least resistance, like an open differential.
Recovery points ( I have 6, 3 front and 3 rear all from my old race cars and two of the factory)
Self Recovery Equipment ( does my 12K pound winch mounted on my receiver hitch count? along with tow straps, and come along count?
Easily Upgradeable/Replaceable Axles (Why Would the Explorer not be?)
I am not bashing your vehicle, I just saw some common misconceptions.
