    where to jack up the rear end

    TBH I didnt really looking super close at the bolt head, I figured it was an Allen wrench. It's not?

    where to jack up the rear end

    Appreciate that. I haven't had mine up in the air yet so I'm super stoked to poke around under there and see what's what so I'm gonna get it up in the air anyways. Plus I'm doing the JXB bushing insert and the grade 12 bolt at the same time as the ID Speed diff brace. But anyways thanks good to...

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    Backdate this to 3/8/26: Took the stupid window guards off finally. After 3 weeks of owning it with those stupid things on I could barely stand it anymore, lol. Had to wait for the weather to get a little nicer here in Minneapolis. But what a PITA. Worth it though. Looks SO much better now...

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    I am VERY interested in your impressions on what the truck is like after these mods, as everything you said is EXACTLY what I'm going to get for mine, eventually. Except I will do a 2.5" Thermal exhaust. But the rest is exactly what I'm getting for parts. Do you have a tune? I would love to hear...

    new-to-me 2021 ExST, SO HAPPY!

    Ok, backdate this to Valentine's Day... Hi all! I am VERY excited to be here! After a long search, just bought my very first ever 'nice' daily driver. It's a 2021 Ford Explorer ST (duh), 20,007 miles when I left the dealership. They were asking $37k, got it for $36,500. After a LOT of research...

    where to jack up the rear end

    I will be putting on a rear differential brace tomorrow. This will be the first time I get my '21 ExST up in the air. Pretty excited to start beefing this thing up. I have ramps to drive the front up onto but I just want to make sure it is ok to jack up the rear end under the differential. Then...

    front license plate frame

    I want to have the same custom license plate frame on the front as I'm getting for the back of my ExST. The possible problem I see is that on the front is has the 2 tabs on the bottom to hold the plate in, and I'm not sure if the plate frame will fit inside those tabs along with the plate...

    Rear differential brace Steeda, Livernois, ID speed

    I completely agree. That's why I'm getting the ID Speed too, plus it seems to be regarded as the best one in an all-around sense. The fact that it's a couple hundred bucks more or whatever seems pretty inconsequential to me in the grand scheme of things and how much money I/you/we will be...

    Rear differential brace Steeda, Livernois, ID speed

    Thanks man. Possible silly question but I'd rather ask and know for sure...the JXB diff bushing insert will also work with the ID Speed brace, correct? (as well as any other brace I would assume)

    Rear differential brace Steeda, Livernois, ID speed

    I can't seem to find the answer to this question: does the ID Speed differential brace come with the grade 12 bolt for the 1 bolt rearend I have in my '21? Or do I need to order the bolt too?

    know of a chrome oil catch can?

    I just got my '21 ExST and am making a plan of things to do to it. #1 is to put an oil catch can on it. I'm sure it doesn't exist, also because I can't find one, but anyone know of a chrome version? Failing that, how about a billet/polished billet one? I had a UPR version of one of these for my...

    Park brake automatically on

    I have had my '21 ExST for almost a week, finally have time to look this up as I thought something was wrong. I can NOT believe that this 'brake staying on' thing is how it's supposed to work...this has got to be damn near the most asinine thing I've ever seen... wow. Please tell me this can...

    2021 Explorer ST owner's manual

    I bought my 2021 Explorer ST a handful of days ago. It originally came from Canada and I finally had time to look at the owner's manual today and it's all in stupid French! LOL Is there an ST specific owner's manual or is it just a generic Ford Explorer manual? I want to buy a hard copy to...

    My 2021 has a block heater, the vehicle came from Canada

    omg! I just bought my own 2021 ExST on Valentine's Day 2026, a few days back. And mine also came from Canadia. Never even thought to look for a block heater but I will now!

    Anyone Replaced Your Driver's Door Seal at Dealer?

    any updates on this? Can anyone confirm it's just glued on? I need to replace mine as well ASAP due to a careless original owner.

    Driver's door weatherstrip replacement

    Has anyone replaced the driver's door weatherstrip? I'm talking about the rubber piece that runs next to the door sill plate that says Ford Performamce on it. I need some instruction as to how to replace it. I just bought my new awesome 2021 ExST and the first thing I want to do is replace the...

    AFE Up to 15% off @ Lethal Performance || Now - 2/16

    What is the difference between the PDS and P5R cold air intake? The graphic shows the PDS flows 355 CFM while the P5R flows 375. The pics look identical...? Ok thank you.

    new-to-me 2021 ExST with 20k miles

    Yeah...I am still torn on it though. I absolutely want to do the diff brace, JXB driveshaft carrier bearing, and the rear subframe bushing support kit. We will be towing our 19' Lance camper with this. I'm sure all of that is not *needed* but it will for sure make it better. Plus I will be doing...
