Designed to tackle differential movement faced by Ford Explorer vehicles when accelerating, this comprehensive upgrade solution will elevate performance, optimize launches, and safeguard against accelerated wear caused by differential movement. This kit combines the Steeda Rear Diff/Pinion Bushing Kit and the Steeda Explorer Rear Differential Brace into one kit for an all-in-one diff upgrade kit.
Proudly made in the USA. The CNC machined rear differential brace, diff brace bushings, and rear diff bushings are made in the USA for excellent quality control and long lasting performance. You can expect premium pieces that cut no corners and you can upgrade your Explorer with confidence.
Better drivability. By minimizing differential movement, your Explorer will have a more connected and "direct" feel. This will give you a more exciting drive, whether you are commuting, traveling, or at the track.
Improved shifts. Controlling the rear differential and preventing too much movement will lead to better shifts. During our testing we found that differential to subframe bushings were being pushed to their limits at launch and were experiencing a lot of movement with each shift. Holding the differential in place with this support system helps keep the transfer of power smooth with each shift and results in less shock to the drivetrain.
