Overview

Maintain control of your Explorer and prevent it from losing traction due to bushing deflection with this bushing support system from Steeda. This is one of the first and most simple steps that should be taken to eliminate wheel hop.

Eliminate subframe movement. The Steeda subframe bushing support system eliminates the rear subframe movement that causes instability and spongey handling in your Explorer. Stiffening the subframe and preventing movement is the key to reducing and eliminating the troublesome traction issues and disconnected feel when launching or taking tight corners.

Better road-feel. Installing the Steeda bushing support kit gives the driver a better feel for the road, letting the driver feel connected to the SUV. This makes spirited and track driving more enjoyable and more responsive.

The leader in Ford performance.

Steeda has been engineering and manufacturing Ford performance parts in-house in Valdosta, Georgia for over 35 years — proven on their own SCCA Majors race team and trusted by enthusiasts who live and breathe Ford. CNC-machined billet construction, proprietary CAD-driven suspension geometry, and a relentless focus on the platforms they specialize in.

First-hand note

FFP fits Steeda parts every week in Thousand Oaks.

— Why we stock Steeda

OE-style engineering, in-house manufacturing, race-proven on Steeda's own SCCA program.

Steeda has been engineering Mustang — and now Explorer, Focus, F-150, and Maverick — parts in Valdosta, Georgia since 1988. CNC-machined billet, proprietary CAD-driven suspension geometry, and a factory SCCA Majors road-racing team that runs their own parts on the track every weekend. When you bolt a Steeda part onto your car, it's the same part Steeda's own race cars run.

We carry Steeda because the fitment is right the first time, the warranty is real (lifetime on Steeda-manufactured parts), and the install instructions don't leave you guessing. Drop the car at our Thousand Oaks shop and our techs handle the fit-up — or order with confidence and run it yourself.
