I just bought a new 2026 Space White Explorer ST. I've read many stories about the single diff. bolt, through 2025, break or bend. I've also read where Ford has improved the single diff. bolt and bushing. I'm unsure if Ford truly made an upgrade and if so, is it an upgrade that's more stable. I'm thinking of using the JBX busing insert and the Steeda single bolt upgrades. This is my first Explorer and first Explorer ST. I would appreciate your thoughts.
