    Alignment Specs (Camber)

    I would check if the subframe was shifted in the incident, sometimes just loosening all for bolts will allow it to shift back into position. If both camber bolts are pushed to one side then the subframe has probably shifted from the impact. But from the alignment specs there may be additional...

    Safety Recall 22S27 Rear Axle Bolt Fractures

    Unfortunately it's the state of the industry now, a dealer is only as good as the techs it hires...and pays for!

    Eibach Lowering Springs

    Are you taking the weight off of the rear wheels? That's how they are adjusted then tighten them before setting it down, I did it on floor jacks in my garage and it was within specs when checked at the tire shop.

    What did your Ford Explorer ST replace?

    The '21 ST replaced our 2018 XLT on H&R springs and 20" Rock Stars, man that 4 cyl ecoboost is a beast!!!

    Here's a good list, I don't know if it's 'Everything' though. I hope it helps:

    Ford should have done this.

    I haven't experienced this, but our driving is mostly around town running errands. I'll have to keep an eye on it during our next road trip.

    Called Out On Tune

    Make sure you ask for documentation if your claim is denied, federal law states they must prove the damage was caused by the aftermarket parts. Tunes are more difficult to fight but make sure they are documenting everything if they're denying your claim. Here's some decent information...

    Called Out On Tune

    Since there's no power to the headlight switch connect a 12v test light between the battery terminals after disconnecting the battery. Let it sit long enough to drain the capacitors, about 30 minutes should be good.

    HELP! FP Tune issue

    Battery replacement? UGH

    I haven't tried that one but a 4 year free replacement is pretty good. At the shop I worked at we sold Interstate batteries for years with no issues. We switched to AC Delco and almost every battery we sold was returned for warranty, with Ford batteries only the more expensive Platinum batteries...

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    I installed a new Interstate battery, I didn't have any starting issues but the stock battery was shutting electronics off way to fast. My better half would leave the hatch open while unloading groceries and the lights would shut off within a few minutes. Also I couldn't shut the truck off if I...

    21 x10.5 rim offset questions and opinion on 22 x10.5 sidewall versus ride quality

    I'm using the same tire and only noticed the inside rear tire starting to spin on a right hand cloverleaf on-ramp, but that can be attributed to the amount of torque these things make and no loss of control was ever felt.

    Lowering Springs: Lethal, Eibach, Steeda, H&R PROS and CONS

    They're not too much stiffer around town, you notice them more when you hit larger bumps. They stiffen up pretty quick, but they're definitely softer on this platform. I had a set on my 2018 and they were stiffer on that.

    Lowering Springs: Lethal, Eibach, Steeda, H&R PROS and CONS

    I also love my H&R's, but I haven't tried any other spring on this platform so I can't compare to others. Has anyone confirmed the H&R's bottom out? I only saw one post where the ST was driven over speed bumps without slowing down, and the OP stated a clunking noise was heard and never confirmed...
