    Rotors

    The street pack is the longest lasting, best performing OE brake system I have ever had. I bought rotors and another set of OE pads at 50k thinking a change was coming soon. It didn't happen until 80k miles and to my surprise, there was probably enough pad for anther 20k miles--this with about...

    Accessory (Serpentine) belt removal and replacement

    There is only one belt on the 3.0L ST. If you just replace the belt, it is a far more easy task but I suggest you replace the other wear parts at the same time: belt tensioner (has it's own pulley attached), 2 idler pulleys. PARTS LIST: (prices at time of writing, Levittown Ford, for my...

    Explorer lunging at high speed while parking

    If the mats are not custom fit for the 2020+ explorers, get rid of them! They are a hazard and can easily be responsible for this. It is one of the issues where you have to spend a little more for custom fit to avoid damages in the thousands and potentially putting your life at risk! I never...

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    95k miles so.... Serpentine belt changed. Replaced the belt tensioner and the two pulleys so I wouldn't have to revisit that again... NOT FUN.

    JXB bushing insert

    The difference must be subtle because in my leisurely driving this morning, I could not appreciate a difference.

    JXB bushing insert

    On the 2 bolt rear subframe, the two bushings are different. you cannot swap them accidentally. They are also different from the single bolt bushing, including the insert. Update:. looking at JXB's own video (screenshot below), seems like the driver's side insert does stick out a little more...

    Electrical Issues When Brake Pedal Pressed 24 ST Explorer

    I wouldn't be surprised if mice ate into your electrical harness(es).

    JXB bushing insert

    Can anyone with the double JXB inserts comment on the driver's side (left mount in the picture above) of mine? It sticks out quite a bit more than the passenger side. Torqued to about 140 ft lbs which is about all I could manage laying flat on my back with no real leverage. Just seems odd.

    Steeda Subframe bushings

    You're right. Had a brain fart.

    Steeda Subframe bushings

    I think you should have removed the pinion and subrame bushing supports. If they are going to replace the rear diff, they may just toss those and install stock.

    Milwaukee 1/2” drive with Neiko sockets

    I've bought a few Neiko tools before--solid brand. I can't afford the high end stuff and haven't had issues with 2nd and 3rd tier stuff: Husky, Neiko, Craftsman, ARES, Performance Tool, GearWrench, Harbor Freight...

    Bad rear Diff bearing

    Definitely take it to the dealer. Hopefully it is just a rear differential carrier bearing. Worst case scenario, you need the entire rear diff replaced like one member here reported!

    K&N Oil Filter

    Who's on first...:ROFLMAO: For the record, are we talking oiled air filters or oil filters? I still don't know.

    New Noise

    Yes, the undercarriage cover is held in by plastic retainers that fail. You need to replace each and every one of them with stainless steel fender washers and M6 nuts.

    Snapped down pipe

    The SPDs have a flex section on the downpipe, not midpipe. That said, even the stock cats fail at the welds for some reason.

    Snapped down pipe

    Well, it looks like the SPD downpipe to SPD midpipe is still clamped. Your best bet may be to get the driver's side down pipe replaced by undoing both clamps and dropping the rear exhaust out of the way. If SPD will not warranty the downpipe because you are not the original owner, maybe they...

    Snapped down pipe

    I would contact SPD. Looks like the welds at the cat failed. I would think they would warranty that. Sucks that the rest of your system is custom welded though...that's going to be a pain.

    Leaking oil?

    Hopefully they do the full FADA TSB and not just O-ring replacement.

    Yes, it is on the bottom: https://www.foexplorer.com/ford_explorer_general_procedures_differential_draining_and_filling-509.html As always, make sure you can loosen the fill plug before you drain it.
