the borg warner transfer box no longer had direct control of high/low range gears meaning that the vehicle has to nearly stop before shifting from high to low range and the lever from the classic model has been replaced by an electric control on the dashboard for the manual and an h-pattern gate on the automatic gear lever. the transfer case's chain and sprockets have been reinforced. the rear differential on the 4.6 l v8 petrol model were a 4-pin version and four-wheel traction control was included with the vehicle, whereas initially the 4.0 l v8 and the 2.5 l i6 only had 2-pin versions and two-wheel traction control on the rear wheels only. later versions had the four-wheel traction control and the later 4.6 l v8 petrol model had a 4-pin front differential.
