Hello everyone somewhat new here although I’ve been looking for a little while. I purchased my 25 Explorer ST November 2 and have really enjoyed it. It’s an amazing vehicle overall to drive power feels nice. Playing with sport mode is pretty incredible. I don’t play hard with it though at this time I’m a little older little smarter somewhat and just being careful with the brand new vehicle probably my first one and hopefully maybe my last if I make it last long enough and I do too. I’ve been reading a lot thinking a lot. I’m going ahead and going to do some Steeda product installs and a little bit of a couple others also mainly to improve on what is already great to my knowledge. This is a list the items I plan to have installed at the end of this month over at the Steeda Georgia location. It’s already set up through John there at Steeda… he’s been great to work with plus he’s actually giving me better prices than the discounted prices @ website. I’m not sure how they work that out and how he deals with that but with a combine list of products to be installed, he just worked some magic for a helping benefit. Every little bit helps . Would love to save the money on the installation cost but it’s all OK. I really don’t have a nice heated garage with the concrete floor and it’s just easier for me to go ahead and bring it to them and have them install everything at one time and get it squared away and we will take it and enjoy from there. It’s probably all I’m going to do for the most part… I also have the Steeda Strut Tower Brace. I have the FenFab ECU cover in black with the red backing plate for lettering, that will pretty much cover my bases. Simple basics aesthetics…I don’t plan to get too much into the other situations at this time, but who knows what the future can bring I’m very happy with the vehicle. It is amazing to drive…Power, tight, smooth, and the Ford Blue Cruise I love. Gotta be sure you’re on top of it all the time still not like it’s a problem, but you never know what’s gonna come up while you’re driving. You can’t be too careful these days.

The other items that will be installed at the same time will be the FenFab Billet Verticle Rear Link and JXB bushings inserts. I understand that there’s a possibility for NVH with the JXB bushings from reading in the forum here, but being as it’s a brand new vehicle we will see. They seem like a good idea And after talking with the owner of the company, I feel fairly confident with trying them also. I know I have read everything here and I’m a touch worried, but not totally. I’ll just see what I get. I think that everything else will feel amazing on it. I will probably have it set up for maximum stiffness everywhere. I would definitely like to have minimum roll if pushed at all. It’s going to be interesting. It’s a bit of a drive from South Carolina near North Carolina down to Voldesta but that’ll be a good test on the way back not like I’m gonna race it or slalom course around cars too much. But it will definitely give me a good idea right from the get-go what I’ve got. Thanks to everyone here and I’ll be watching what else pops up here. Great forum.
