'06 Expo Mods to improve towing
Hi all,
I'm new to the forum but been a lurker for a while. Anyway, I have a '06 Expo 2wd with the 5.4 Triton and 3.31 rear end. I tow a roughly 6000# boat and the towing performance is less than stellar.
I'm in a bit of a hilly area and the truck just seems to lack power, does a lot of shifting, etc. I know the 3.31 rear is probably a big part of the problem.
I'm just wondering what mods folks would suggest to make the towing better. I've heard guys say their F150 with a 5.4 is a great towing vehicle so I'm wondering where I'm coming up short with my truck.
I've been shopping for a newer F150 but the prices just make me sick to my stomach compared to what they offer in trade for my Expo...
Thanks all!
