Matt can you decode my 2006 Expedition, I was really hoping it had the HD Tow but suspect that it does not. I am about to buy a Holiday Trailer and could use this info. If it dos not have the tow package, I am wondering how and how much it would cost to upgrade to it. 1FMFU20546LA37092


You're in luck. It does have the HD tow already.

Thanks! I tried clicking on the link and it didn't come up, but it does look as though Matt's system is a tad more comprehensive, so it'll be nice to know if his works as well, but if not, this gives good info!

It says Heavy Duty Trailer Towing Package, but I still have 3.55's. What gives? What does that package signify if it comes without the 3.73's?

Tony the same info comes up as "billycuth" posted as it's all the same Ford database. Less info is available for the older models compared to the newer models.

The HD tow package didn't include a change in rear gearing. Usually it only signified HD radiator, HD trans cooler, 7 pin connector, Class IV hitch and trailer brake wiring harness.

Makes sense, mine had all that, only the trans cooler was pretty small located really far down. I replaced it with a large one located high up with a temp gauge as well :)

Sorry, looks like it wants the "www" prefix...
