    aFe Intakes for the 22’s

    OK, Just to clarify my comment, I noticed "other changes" to my 2022 ST that were "DIFFERNT" as well, from my 2021 ST, it was only my assumption, that it was a cut cost consideration by Ford Motor Company, since I'm not on the board of directors, to date. Sorry about that...

    Installed Steeda lowering springs, to lower it about 1 1/8" inchces and stiffer more stable ride. Also rear adj sway bar and bushings... Really made a difference in the twisties...

    aFE Strut Brace and New Nitch'e Wheels

    aFe Intakes for the 22’s

    Yeah, I bought on as well for my 22' and Ford didn't design them in for 22'. My 21' had one but it got totaled when someone totaled my vehicle. Bought the 22' and Ford made some changes, to cut costs.

    Does anyone smell exhaust gases when pushing the pedal to the floor under max acceleration? I had a Borla "S" cat back system installed but during normal opps, no exhaust smell in the cabin. I also installed an AFe dual cold air intake system. No down pipes on this build. Maybe the turbo blow...

    Explorer ST Wheel Size, Bolt Pattern, Offset & Tire Information

    I need a clear understanding of what thickness wheel spacers and brand, I can use to bring the Street Pack 21" ST Wheels and tires to be even with the fender well edge, for both front and back wheels? Lots of choices out there but what is the correct offset?
