A full mechanics view of the underside of the all-new 2020 Ford Transit AWD system and how it operates.

Super useful video. Love that a dealer actually puts out useful stuff, not just a sales pitch reading off a Ford brochure. To be honest I usually avoid dealer produced content because it is so over the top. It was very useful to see the carrier bearings, transfer case, and front axle in motion. Gave me a better overall impression of the Transit awd.

BEST AWD ILLUSTRATION ON YOUTUBE - THANKS

[Parkeralto]

Very satisfying; I'm going to run in on a loop.

Why do the rear shock brackets hang so low? Seems like a potential issue on rough roads.

Fantastic and detailed video, thank you!

Very helpful video. Helps me understand the AWD without rolling around under. But should you be lifting the van on it's pinch welds?

[erik_cruz]

Thank you for making this video! How big is that fuel tank?

[thatguy]

Perfect shots. Is there a lift kit available for the Ford Transit? Have been looking for this same video of the Ram Promaster 3500 extended and/pictures of the undercarriage.

Great video and great close up! Thanks! The next time for Ford Transit Connect XLT 2020 ? Please!!!

can the front driveshaft be replaced with the engine still in or is it a huge undertaking if something was to go wrong?

[kaoskev]

All this video is missing, is some loud techno music. Just kidding, watched the whole thing and enjoyed it as is. Great to see.

Does the AWD system transfer power to wheels that are not slipping, or do all 4 wheels constantly spin at the same time?

[Thinker]

I drove one yesterday.
An AWD system that can shifted into 2WD low range for mud and snow.

May have to drive over from Tigard and check things out.

Needs some Wurth beeswax undercoating!

[lesterma]

I have a 21 awd transit, the only gripe I have are the rear axel shock mounts, too low!

[OneManTrail]

will snow chains fit between the strut and the sidewall?

[redhongkong]

Is it 150 or 250? I just made my order on 250 yesterday. That leaf springs make me think if im gonna need 350
