What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

[MikeHTally]

Black lug nuts on.

Ordered the AWR mount, AFE intake, ZFG tune/tuner (3-4 weeks before in stock) got my set of Velgen rims directly through Scott Velgen (awesome to deal with BTW)
I'm in Canada, getting some of the parts here sucks. I originally tried messaging Lethal Performance multiple times through email and through facebook/messanger. They never got back to me once in 2 weeks.... man, awful. Even messaged Tyler directly and nothing.
Messaged Woosh and Ron got back to me within 15 mins.... So bought the intake and AWR through him... and will continue to do so.

Weird, Tyler is usually pretty fast.

Ron though, replies almost instantly majority of the time. Great guy!

Woosh responded in minutes also. Never tried anyone else he gave me good price and shipped fast and replied even faster. that was enough to earn my business for the few thing I will buy.

I had ordered this while it was on sale for the 4th and before I saw the newest problem with the car... but put it on today since it arrived.

hahaha, I already caught that and removed it. I closed the hood and right away I was like "crap, I forgot the other bolt" and had to open it up again. As I posted the photo I saw it there and figured someone would make that catch too

Let us know if you think that front strut brace makes much of a difference. Curious as to your thoughts. Thanks

I've been slacking, i already installed the Steeda strut tower brace (no pic) and the Ford Performance License plate bracket. However, did get the ST back from the mechanic today, H&R Springs and Gibson Axleback Exhaust.

Nice! What's your first impression on the Gibson? My Steeda springs and Gibson exhaust was delivered this week, and I'm planning on getting them both installed this weekend.

 

[DocRoberts]

Which sway bar did you use please. Did stock rod not do good with them? Anything in the front.... where I feel there is loose steer.

Added the JLT catch can to the ST today. This has been one of my first mods that I do since my 2013 F150 Platinum with the 5.0. I've seen the oil collected by the cans and I am sold on them. I chose the JLT because it looked easier to install and the other brand required drilling into the air intake tube. I didn't feel comfortable with that.

Dont you feel uncomfortable having to check can every 500 to 1k miles?

It's a bit louder than I was expecting but it's not obnoxious or anything. Don't get me wrong, it sounds good. I'm not sure if it's super wife friendly at the moment, she hasn't driven it yet but heard the cold start and raised an eyebrow.

Over 7k miles in and 6 months and finally it’s ceramic coated…

Who did the Ceramic coating for you? Are you happy with the way it turned out? Currently looking to get this done also.

I haven't put lots of miles on the car yet, but so far I'd say it helped a bit. Not a huge difference or anything, but the Strut bar, springs, and rear sway bar (all Steeda) made a world of difference.

[mcfarlrm]

Just a few cosmetic things. Removed license plate mount, black vinyl Ford and ST overlays and yellow vinyl fog light overlays. Still debating whether or not I like the yellow....

 

[cwescapexlt4x4]

what was your thought/experience with the fog light overlays? I have a set and seemed like it was going to be more challenging than I expected vs other vehicles I have done in the past.
