I'm trying to figure out what trailer rating it might have and the vehicle is 200 miles away. Can you get a copy of the original sticker somewhere, if you give someone the VIN number?
Of course, that's for 2001, but most things are pretty constant. As for the axle codes on the door jamb, I did find that H9 is a 3.55 and H6 is 3.73. I want to be able to identify the trailer towing capacity of an Expedition that we might buy used. The one we want has L in the 8th position of the VIN; L is for 5.4 liter engine. And it has H6 for an axle code.
By going to my local Ford dealer I have found that most/many XLT Expeditions have the smaller engine (6 engine code). Most Eddie Bauers have the 5.4 and the 3.55 axle. It will be tough, I believe, to find a good 5.4/3.73 combination. I was trying to deal on an XLT 200 miles away and the guy gave me the VIN and said it had a 5.4. The VIN said it was a 4.6. He finally went to check it (one of 500 vehicles) and it was a 4.6. That's why VIN #'s and axle codes are important.
