I purchased the XLT AWD Maverick with the luxury package, which comes with a hitch, but not the tow package. I've had my Maverick for a few months now, I'm wondering if there's any way to increase the tow capacity to 4k+ lbs, i.e. an aftermarket solution.

With enough money a custom shop would oblige.

Short answer, no. There are no aftermarket solutions for something like that. As mentioned above you would need a custom shop; money can buy just about anything.

4K Tow gets you Transmission cooler, bigger radiator, new rear drive ratio, hitch, and wiring. Not sure if anything else - but your issue would be transmission and radiator cooling plus rear drive ratio. I assume you are AWD and the system would adapt though not sure.

Bottom line - not simple, and could throw money at it…but probably better getting what you want through a new order (2023?).

4K Tow also includes trailer brake controller.

Sell the one you got and order the one you want sounds like the cheaper solution.
