AWD transfercase
Ok Im in the middle of changing a chain and viscous coupling in another 2002 mountaineer and with a second set of hand you can do it in the vehicle by just removing rear drive shaft splitting the cases not very hard at all about a 3hr jod like this compared to 4-8 if you break any crossmember bolt when removing the case from truck. All i have left to do right now is clean case faces and apply a good rtv and put bolt case together and fill with oil it took 2 hours to the point
of course you couldnt do this if you felt the need to change any bearings

not sure if it would be the same because this tcase has no wires hooked to it so not sure if it would be the but i would guess not because the Nav is an expedition all dressed up so site unseen i would say no

Wayne, I would love to see some pictures and a walk thru of your T-Case rebuild. That would be a very good thing for this site. Hope you took some pics.
I agree about the 2000 Navi. Pretty sure it's not AWD. Does it have a selector switch for 4WD on the dash somewhere?

to be honest i didnt take any pictures because it was one of the most straight forward repairs i have ever done and after doing my first one i realized that you dont have to drop the case unless you are changing bearings and seals but if anyone has specific questions i can answer them get me your number and i will call you when its conveinent I can take a picture of the old coupler this weekend and post them

Yes, it does have switch on dashboard with three different setiing..A4wd, 4H, 4L and i leave mine at A4WD unless i want full time 4WD then i switch the selecter to 4H. As far as i understood, t-case in Nav is torque-on-demand which mean when there is slip in the rear shaft, t-case engage front wheels.
Thanks guys

Hmmmm,,,I wonder if that is the culprit of the slipping I feel,,(kinda like a shudder vibration ,,,when turning in my 04' Explorer,,,,If I drive straight,,,it does not do it,,,turn the steering wheel some,,and you can feel this,,,something chattering,,slipping,,,But yet if it is driven far enough,,,it must warm up enough,,,and seems to slip less,,or not at all,,,Has something to do with the front wheels turning turning different speeds then the rear,,,any Ideas??
