Subframe bushing braces and billet vertical links.

Bushing braces first. Vertical links after toe links.

Thanks
Not on social media except maybe here, but do know the time table for FenFab's vertical links to out?

PS: Unbroken, you've been a big help over the past 3 years with mods. Thank You

I actually talked to him tonight…he’s hoping to start getting them shipped by Christmas. The links are just back from anodizing.

This seems to be perfect timing. The car has 50k and I like to go the whole 9 yards. Shocks, struts, mounts, plus the bushings, toe link & vertical link.
For about a year now, and with the suspension getting old & needing tires, I was having tremoundos wheel hop @ high speeds. And with not knowing exactly what the problem was until now,
I thought maybe it was the tune or something. When I purchased new tires, It did help a lot with new tread. But this thread did steer me in the right direction to solving the wheel hop

Hey Bub
Will you post when you get the vertical links? Or did you get yours yet? I'm still waiting on mine. It still says preorder on the site

I’ve had mine installed for over a week.

Will the bushings/links work on a Platinum/King Ranch or suspension is different?

I ordered mine about six weeks ago. I sent a message but haven't heard back. I know he is busy over there so I've been patient. My vehicle is still in the shop anyways.

These will work just fine. All mounting and attachment points are the same.

Several have said it, the bushing inserts are a MUST DO mod to every Explorer. Personally I'd get Steeda Toe Links before either Vertical Links.

When using Jack stands, would I also need to raise the front? Or only the rear wheels?

 

[UNBROKEN]

Rear only

Rear only

thanks man. I’ll be buying the Steeda kit based on your post. They should kick you a few bucks for these posts

I spoke to Brett at FenFab and he said my order is set to go out next week. Hopefully I will be getting my vehicle back soon so I can get everything installed.

Finally got the last pieces to the puzzle. He knocked it out of the park with these! Shout out to Brett at FenFabrications!

I’ve played with a lot of parts on my car…very few made an eye opening difference. The rear swaybar is one, drop springs…an intercooler is another one…now these things are out there in the wild and whether you go with FenFab or Steeda doesn’t matter as long as you get a set. The difference is immediate and substantial. This is truly how the car should have felt from the factory. You may not know it but you NEED a subframe bushing brace kit. And while you’re in there Brett has his billet vertical links live on his site now too.

so how do you 'notice' the change? curious on these parts - they make sense, but what's the difference to stock?

is there an install guide?

 

[UNBROKEN]

The whole car just feels less sloppy. Watch the videos on Steedas site…it’ll make sense. And yes, there’s install guides. It’s less than an hour all in.

found a good install video

That guy in the video is questionable....

On the toe links, is there a big advantage to the adjustable toe links? Or will the non-adjustable be fine?
