AWD explorer 5.0
Hello,
I have a '99 Explorer AWD 5.0 limited, actually my wife's transport. With the ridiculous gas prices I was wanting to improve the MPG on her truck. Currently it gets about 16-18 mpg. My question is, is it possible to disconnect the front drive shaft to eliminate some of the powertrain drag. With it being AWD do think the transfer case would be okay?
