This project started when I got wind of the recall Ford had for the 2011-2019 Explorer rear toe link.  Started doing research to see if there was anything good aftermarket and found that Steeda made some stuff!  Ended up with not only the rear toe links but the rear trailing arms AND the rear sway bar.

Awesome and easy!  Thanks goes out to @uin2it and his install video

I belive they are universal to the Flex/SHO/MKS/Explorer but, can these be used on the SHO?
Hockey/Golf/Car geek, Beagle loving, and totally comfortable with it.
Tuxedo Black nonPP 2013 SHO traded in
Shadow Black nonPP 2016 SHO
VTA, and tuned by GH

Yes, they will physically bolt up, but they are a bit too stiff, from what I've heard. Can't confirm that.
Whiteline makes an SHO sway bar, though:

thanks for the info, I'll dig a little deeper into specs, I was actually a little more interested in the trailing arms and toe links.

Those won't fit, different design parts
