HI

I am looking for an 03 or 04 navigator. Does the tow package come stock on the 03 and is an option on the 04? Thats what I've read online.

What does the full tow package entail on these trucks? Also, how can i easily tell if the truck I go to look at has the full "heavy duty tow package"??

Thanks

mike

 

My 03' Expy has the HD Tow Package and to tell if it has it, It will for 1 have both connectors (round and flat 4-pin), It will have the tranny cooler up in the front lower grill, and the built in reciever will be rated at (8-9k) if I remember the specs correctly. there may be more ways to tell but thats what I know of off my truck.

 

Bigger (thicker) radiator, oil cooler, 7 pin round and 4 pin flat electrical connectors, tranny cooler, 3.73 gears, V-5 hitch reciever (it will say 8,950 lbs with WD hitch, 5.4

 

.........so pretty much what I said more or less. There you go imp

 

I have a 2006 Navi, I have yet to see a navigator 2003 and up with the 7 pin tow plug. all I have seen is the 4 flat. I added my 7 pin. You will see the tranny cooler and the hitch will be high rated. Its fun trying to find a place to mount the 7 pin plug and still use the tow hitch cover. If you need some ideas let me know.,.

 

I was about to say, I have an 04 Expy EB with trailer tow supposedly. It has all the features EXCEPT the 7pin. Only has a 4pin. But you can look up on the left side of the receiver (left when looking at the rear end of the vehicle) and see what appears to be provision for the extra for 7 pin.

 

It states in my 2003 broucher that ALL navigators (2003) have factory tow package with 7 pin & 4 pin connectors.. When I remove the hitch cover, the plugs are on the left, right next to the edge of the cover.. That is where mine has been since 2003.. Only used it a few times, but know mine is there..

There is also a gray plug located under the dash of ALL full size P/U's & SUV's (97 & up) for hooking up the electronic brake controller if you have a trailer with electric brakes..

 

I have an 04 Navigator 4x4. The tow package came with both 4 pin and 7 pin connectors in the rear.

 

Well mine didnt. Maybe in 05 they changed it. I am not very familiar with older navi's. All the 2006's I have seen do not have the 7 pin plug. Maybe its an option? I have the tow package with an oil cooler and high rated class 4 hitch. But the 4 flat was the only connector at the rear. It had a wire for the brake controller at the rear harness taped up, and the harness under the dash for the hook up for the brake controller. i also had to trace the wire for the 12v to the trailer for battery charging on a TT and run a wire for it from under the rear driver side pasenger door.

 

Mine has the tow package, sub-bumper tow hitch, large round electrical connector, extra trailer pigtail, two optional relays to install under hood, and oil cooler forward of radiator/condensor.

 

This is exactly the way my 04 is. It has the brake controller connector, the taped up harness at the rear, and the driver side passenger door wire. The hitch says IV/V, and I have only a 4 flat. I have the auxiliary oil cooler as well. Does it seem we have dealer inconsistencies here with the vehicles?

 

Sounds more like a change in what was being offered by the factory. I think the 7 pin round was factory installed.

 

I stand corrected! I went out and checked my 04 Navi. I have a 4 pin and the brake controler. I hadn't looked in sometime and I thought it was a 7 pin connector. Sorry!

 

Both my 03 and 04 Expeditions have the 4 flat and 7 round connectors.
