You definitely can't go wrong with the aFe system. Fantastic quality and no drone.

I am not sure.if they had marked it for some reason or if it had been marked by ford. It is not from the sway bar though, if you look in the second pic you can see there is a ton of room between the bar and the spring.

Also, I was speaking with the engineer and they are thinking about doing another color for their sway bars. They are thinking about red, what are your guys thoughts?

Hey guys, they were able to resolve the rear sway and instead of the ends bending towards the springs, the design has it running straight. I've attached a couple of pics for everyone to see.

The guys over at aFe have figured out a way to do it without dropping the front subframe. They will have everything detailed in their instructions. They definitely said it took them a bit to figure out the easiest way to do it and they believe they have it dialed in.

I spoke with the engineer at aFe and they are shooting for this summer (June/July), as the expected release.

I will find out what kind of time frame they are thinking. Hopefully sooner than later.

So here are the results. The front sway bar has a diameter of Ø38mm, with a 3-hole design and an increased stiffness of 30-60% over stock. The rear sway bar has a diameter of Ø25.4mm, with a 3-hole design and an increased stiffness of 97-150% over stock. The sway bars will be powder coated blue...

As far as I know, they are still in the works. I will find out more this week and get back on this. I know some things got pushed back because of other projects.

Just wanted to give an update. The ST is over at aFe waiting for them to do their magic and put on their new front and rear swaybars. They'll be testing the Explorer for a couple of days and should have all the comparative stats on stiffness over stock and other details like diameters to share.

I am not currently lowered, but will be speaking with them about that. I've had to keep my ST as stock as possible for them throughout all their testing processes. I will definitely let them know the previous issues and concerns and see what else they're planning.

Hey guys, I just wanted to let everyone know that aFe is at it again and will be testing both front and rear sway bars for our STs. They will start testing these units next week. Once they're happy with everything, then they will be providing all the details about the sway bars like diameters...

Yes, I have the original 21" Scorpions on there and didn't have any issues or concerns. I was up at Lake Arrowhead in SoCal the day after fresh snow and no complaints.

My ST is my daily driver and I'm loving my aFe exhaust. To me, it's pretty decent for a V6 with a good sound.

Decided to get her in the snow for the 1st time.

Great write up!

I'm running aFe's exhaust and loving it. True 2.5" catback with new flex pipes like the Thermal and I believe MBRP.

Totally. Vergennes is a great company to work with. I had a set on another car and was very happy with them.

I think the VF9's look amazing. I had hit up Jonathan from Velgen back in May about the VF9's and they weren't making them back then and weren't planning on it either. I'm so glad they decided to make them. Your ST looks fantastic with them!

I believe that they are welded and they will work on all Explorers and Aviators with the 3.0tt.
