What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

[rlgatekeeper]

Do you just get a trim tool and pry the stock pieces out?

Good to know. I'll add something underneath to hopefully stop that.

got the steeda s/b myself good choice.....

Put on four new Continental Crosscontact LX25's. Suposed to be decent tires but they are kind of loud. Also tried to have a four-wheel alignment done but as usual, they couldn't get it right. I'm going to take it to a shop my friends brother works at. Hopefuly he can get it right, or at least close.

Looked at my phone entering a parking garage and curbed a wheel pretty bad. Feel really stupid.

Now wandering through a zillion wheel options. If anyone knows of a 21" OEM wheel that needs a home, holler at ya boy.

I have one that probably looks much like yours. The new OEM wheel was expensive.

I just put the same tires on. I don’t find them loud. What tires did you have on before?

First oil change at 2500 miles. Put in that fresh extra virgin organic kirkland olive oil.

2022 Ford Explorer ST - 15470mi

Out: Ford FS 5w-30 (5543mi)/Ford Filter
In: Mobil ESP (SP) 5w-30/Fram SE filter

Also changed the air and cabin filters for the first time, both very dirty and installed a Ronin Factory drain plug.

Installed FenFab ECU cover and coolant tank. Also recently did CVF intercooler and hot/cold pipes. Still have CVF catted downpipes and AWE exhaust to install and then get my ZFG tune done.
Went to mount my Velgen wheels today and realized I need smaller lug nuts.

you should b e able to find one on here somewhere. Maybe keep an eye on the selli g area.. Dont feel bad I looked down at my phone when i was driving my dodge ram1500. I rolled it down the highway 150 feet across 17 boulders . I think I need more than a rim.... lol

Thank you. I am looking into maybe having one custom made by the company below. It will be pricey but it is what it is. Everything I see from my searches are made in China or Taiwan. I have an issue with swapping out my made in USA grille oval with an American flag emblem not made in USA. Thats like hanging an American flag on my house that's made in China - I won't do it!

Thats funny I thought I was the only person who felt this way .I wont buy a flag that isnt made in this country !!

My 2025 is coming along. So far I have installed the Eibach lowering springs, Steeda Front and Rear sway bars with links, Steeda strut tower brace, Thermal R&D 3" Catback, removed the luggage racks, tinted the front door windows. View attachment 25989 View attachment 25990

Which window deflectors are those?

 

[rlgatekeeper]

After almost 6 months I decided to replace the exhaust tips since I don't foresee myself swapping out the whole system.

I went with 3.5" dual wall stainless steel. I thought about the 4" but these to me looked a little cleaner after seeing both mocked up in the shop. At $170 installed I didn't think that was too bad as some tips I was looking at online were way more than that.

don't see a diff support?

Installed the other day, MRT hood struts. Easy install but some adjustments are needed to line up properly. My hood is still off but I will go back and adjust it again.

Had installed fenfab oil pan, Superforged front bbk, steeda verticle link reinforcers, steeda subframe bushings lockouts.

That oil pan is pretty impressive especially once you pull off that cheesy plastic pan. You’re gonna love the improvements! Make sure you follow the bedding instructions on the front brakes then let us know what you think about the upgrades.

Yea the plastic "pan" is more like a little cap. The shop was joking about it. The pan is great, now capacity is 8.5 quarts. I'm going to try to do the bedding tomorrow or squeeze it in adhoc when driving around when I can. Its a lot of up to speed and stops and not many places around here for that. In the meantime I'm not trying to do any stoppies for awhile.

edit : there was an immediate noticeable improvement in the vehicle dynamics with the sub-frame bushings. I'm super happy how noticable and better the ST feels now.

Yeah it’s tough when you can’t drive around unmolested for the process. I have an area near me that is all warehouse so I can spend 15 minutes without much interruption. Nothing wrong with bedding them driving around. Just got to avoid hot stops or you’re toast. If you find that you get some irregular pad deposits you can always clean them with a couple/few high speed highway hard braking sessions back to back to back.

I too noticed a significant improvement in handling with the steeds reinforcements.
