The 6th generation of Explorer shook up the industry with a modern aesthetic and brought forward a game-changing addition to Ford's lineup, the Explorer ST. The Explorer blends comfort, performance, and functionality into an unbeatable package. Steeda worked hard to bring a product that could really show the potential of the SUV and give every Explorer in Ford's lineup better handling from the base model to ST. The Steeda lowering springs take the appearance of your Explorer and the performance up a notch.

With a 1 1/8 inch drop front and rear, the Steeda springs give your Explorer a lower and more performance-oriented style without compromising the functionality of your SUV. Lowering springs are a great way to give your Explorer a unique look and set it apart from other Explorers on the road.

Hi everybody Brian from Steeda.com, here today spotlighting our Lowering Springs for the 2020 and later Ford Explorer.
The Explorer has been popular for many years and with good reason it's a great blend between SUV and truck. Enough truck to be able to tow things or go to the lumber yard and enough SUV to be able to run around town and comfort and as always there's room for improvement or at least personalization in your vehicle and one of those things that's great to do is Lowering Springs. Now there's a lot of functionality here in the springs that we offer as always you want to improve the vehicle and make it better for you. Now we do this by lowering it approximately one in 1/8 inches at all four corners. This brings the center of gravity down a little bit but still gives you plenty of suspension travel. This means that if you're going up to the cabin and taking gravel roads you've of plenty of suspension travel to cruise along nicely. Yet on the highway or even better going to Blue Ridge Parkway and carving some corners it's going to handle way better. We worked very hard to get the spring rates just right on our Steeda Springs. This is important for a couple of reasons. One we want to make sure that the springs are firm enough to get rid of that sort of floaty feel that these trucks inherently have when you're driving on the highway at speed, but we didn't want to be harsh around town so there had to be a balance there in the spring rates. We also know again that you're going to have a vehicle behind it sometimes or again jet skis or some sort of toys that might be on a trailer behind it or a payload maybe your family going camping, whatever it might be. We know they're gonna load this thing down as well, so we needed more spring rate to control the suspension or the additional weight of everything being on it. So this is the perfect blend between sporty, comfortable and functional. Like I said we spent a lot of time getting spring rates just right.
Digging into the technology behind these springs a little bit we construct them of High Silica Steel and this is important because it ensures consistent spring rates for every spring as well as consistent ride height for every batch of Springs out there. Then we finish them off in blue powder coat for corrosion resistance.
So there you have it, our Springs are a great way to make your Explorer unique and give it a fantastic stance while also making it more functional whether it's around town loading it up or again carving some canyons and just simply enjoying the versatility of your Sport-Utility.
