Curious your thoughts on this. Did you mean "soft in general" or "softest setting"? I thought with a heavy AWD vehicle (and according to most car mags driving impressions of this vehicle) this truck tends to understeer initially and then oversteers a bit if you keep pushing it until the traction control kicks in and corrects. I've only ever experienced understeer so far but havent really tried to get my tail to kick out just yet. Im definitely going to try in September at the Park City drivers event, lol. If that is the case, and our stock rear sway bars are already stiffer than a non-ST explorer, I would think without ARB arms for the front yet we probably can get away with starting at the "softest setting" to try and get rid of that initial understeer present, but i wouldn't think even going to the stiffest setting would be a problem. i know i would rather have a vehicle that i can counter-steer to get where i want rather than one that isn't tucking in when i need it to.
Soft”est” setting.... If you put the intelligent AWD setting on the display it shows and only really kicks in when you get on it. It is still considered a rear wheel base suv. I was just curious since there is not a beefier front sway yet. I’ve done stiffest in the front and softest in the rear on past cars... but it’s an easy install and can adjusted pretty quickly.
Plan to powered coat it red and install and play with the cornering one afternoon. I live north of San Antonio and there are a ton of great roads in the country and hills to play. (Don’t try a Jeep with a 4” lift lol) I truly wish we can get another option on the springs (coilovers) tho. Another inch would be perfect but would definitely need an aftermarket camber kit along with other components.
So far I’m very pleased and surprised with the handling. Feels like a sport car with 6 ppl in it. Now that I have the MPSS on it really hard to break those tires loose.
maybe in the rain or with MORE power.
