Soft”est” setting.... Iif you put the intelligent AWD setting on the display it shows and only really kicks in when you get in 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.

Just the springs, lighter wheels and wide tires made it drive like a whole new truck. Anything else is just icing on the cake.

Can someone explain to a nub what this swaybar is, what it does and why you'd want one on your ST?

Roger. Thanks for the heads up!

The ST already has a rear sway bar, all explorers do, the ST just has a beefier one. See below for why an even stiffer one could be beneficial.

This dude's videos are always super good. Long story short is that they prevent the springs from being compressed by forces other than vertical ones. And therefore reduce body roll.

Mine will be delivered tomorrow. I ordered Tuesday night. Demand must have been higher than they anticipated.

Did you request the Intercooler to not say Whipple on it. I’ve seen with and without. I prefer a clean look.

Can’t remember who has this hitch cover but I had to copy. It looks really nice in person. I grabbed a black locking pin to go with it. ED389D98-522B-4D95-B566-9082BC884EE2.jpeg
