Many thanks to the Steeda guys (Mike, Matt and Jaime) for their excellent customer service. The mount with the loose bearing needs to be replaced, it's too loose if you can move it around with your finger. If you mistakenly get one of those, don't install it, just call Steeda and they'll fix you...
I recently received and installed my shock mounts and like a few of you, I'm getting that slight clunk/noise on one side at low speed going over small bumps in the road. I noticed before installing them that the mount making the noise has a significantly looser bearing than the quiet one. As in...
Thanks for the replies. Yeah, I don't see how lateral locks would affect handling any differently than built-in lateral stops like on the BMR, Steeda, Eibach, etc. Whiteline doesn't have stops, but they include locks in their kit. Trying to understand Ford's logic.
Any vendors have insight to...
So I have the Ford Performance Track Handling package, and my front sway bar also shifts laterally to where it hits the front subframe at the sway bar's 90 degree bend. It only hits when cornering hard, but it can stay in that off center position.
I contacted the Ford Performance Tech Line, and...

Gibbo, really appreciate your posts!
I too hoped a fluid change would minimize the clunk. Swapped to BG, but unfortunately didn't notice much of a difference. I'm keeping the BK051 in for now, but has anyone successfully eliminated the clunk/thud without simply removing their diff bushing inserts?
I don't get a hum or vibration, but after the BK051 install I now have some occasional, noticeable clunking while shifting in 1st, 2nd and 3rd. I think it's the same clunking documented in other threads. Anyone successfully reduce the clunking while keeping the diff bushing inserts? I like how...
Thanks for the info Nemesis! So all I need to install the illuminated sills in a 50th LE is the harness (included with the new sills) and the ScanTool OBDLink correct?
Installed mine today, feel is much better than stock! If you're having a hard time compressing the stock spring, just get more leverage with bigger vice grips or pliers. Steeda directions are good, nothing broke! Easy! Thanks Steeda!
Hey David, I went to order one of these but the cheapest shipping option to CA costs the same as the spring. I don't need $99 worth of stuff right now for free shipping. Any other options?
