What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

[Eljaber]

Watched my wife put her black ST badges we got from ST Experience. She did an excellent job.

I moved it back into the garage, so I helped lol... But, then I noticed ours does not have the self park feature. Must be due to the chip shortage :shrug: I wasn't that impressed with it at the ST Experience, the car we had for the day parked kind of funky and I feel like I would be way too nervous using it. Gets pretty damn close to the car in front and back lol...

Just got my ride back from the dealership…passenger mirror was folding and overextending at will, mid speaker in driver door had a dragging voice coil, and they have the new window switches on order, but I got tired of waiting. They’ll call me when they’re in.

When I got it home I swapped all the rear lights for Houston Speed Freak LED’s (they’re stupid bright). I also did the flashing third brake light I bought off Amazon (FXC 2x 24W Flash Strobe... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HPSZZXQ ) I got two, so I did my charger too.


*did the bullseye hood struts…

What leads do I tap into for the brake light flasher? I have the module, but I don't know which is the hot and which is a ground.

when you pull the plastic cover off the top inside of the rear door, you’ll see a plug toward the middle left with a light greenish and a grayish wire. The greenish one is on top and is the power. The gray is the negative. I used a voltmeter to figure which was which.

Today I added a screen protector to my big ol’ radio and haphazardly installed vinyl badging covers and ST fill in black. . (First time jacking with vinyl) Glad they send two of each logo covers so I can chalk the first round up to experience. Tomorrow I’m going to drop off my steeda springs and sway bar for powder coating. Going with black…or red. Haven't decided.

Where did you buy the vinyl logo covers?

You can choose from different color and sheen options. These are matte black background with gloss black lettering.

We bought these for my wife's 2022 ST. We had the detailer put it on when they were wrapping her roof. I'm going to have to order a set for my 2020 ST and try it ourselves, hopefully it goes well lol.

About a Week

Put Silent mode to proper use, when we did car camping in Joshua Tree national park.
Changing ambient lighting to red, will make sure you get enough lighting, without your eyes adjusting back to day mode.

Wasn't really today but it was last Friday. Installed H&R Springs, mounted and balanced 285/50 Michelins on RTR Aero 7 20x9.5 +33 wheels. I think this is the first Explorer with Aero 7s on it.

That looks good, just enough sidewall to fill the gap.
