Looking at buying an ST
#1
Hey guys! Just bought a grey ‘21 ST. Looking forward to learning more about these awesome vehicles! I’ve owned several Ford’s. 2 Mustang GT’s and 2 F150’s (1 was an 02 Lightning).

I think the first mod I’m gonna consider is a set of sway bars and lowering springs.

Welcome to the forum! You really only need the rear sway bar. I've read in here that the front one is sufficient. Lot's of good info on the subjects here.

Welcome! Add the subframe bushing lockouts, massive improvement is noticed and well worth it.

Welcome and congrats! FYI A front sway bar does nothing for these cars. I detail all the aftermarket parts in my modding guide:
