Unable to float elements in Bootstrap navbar

Im having problems to float elements to the right inside bootstrap navbar, I need to apply float:right to Option 1 and Option 2 elements, and center Search Input, I tried !important rule but still doesnt work, and when the content is collapsed and you click navbar toggler button it moves some px from the left.

Edit: I also need to display navbar when is collapsed in this order: Brand - Search Input - Toggler button. And the content of toggler button under Search Input.

Here is the relevant code:

.navbar{
    background-image: cornflowerblue;
}
#mainNav{
    border: 5px solid black;
    margin: 3%;
    background-color: white;
}
body{
    background-color: grey;
}
#navContent{
    background-color: white;
    margin: 3%;
}
#final{
    border: 5px solid black;
    margin: 3%;
    background-color: white;
}
#searchForm{
    margin: auto;
}
#test{
    text-align: center;
    border: 5px solid black;
    float: right;
}

Use the Bootstrap 4 integrated Flex-System. I cleaned the code a bit and added the magic ml-auto (margin-left:auto). Give it a try.

.navbar{
    background-image: cornflowerblue;
}
#mainNav{
    border: 5px solid black;
    margin: 3%;
    background-color: white;
}
body{
    background-color: grey;
}
#navContent{
    background-color: white;
    margin: 3%;
}
#final{
    border: 5px solid black;
    margin: 3%;
    background-color: white;
}
#searchForm{
    margin: auto;
}

If you want a mega-menu in Bootstrap 4 (like eg. yamm for Boostrap 3), I had success with using flexbox:

<!-- adapted from bs-repo basic navbar example code -->
<nav id="navbar" class="navbar navbar-expand-lg navbar-light bg-light">
  <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Navbar</a>
  <button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-toggle="collapse"
          data-target="#navbarSupportedContent"
          aria-controls="navbarSupportedContent" aria-expanded="false"
          aria-label="Toggle navigation">
    <span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
  </button>
  <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarSupportedContent">
    <ul class="navbar-nav mr-auto">
      <li class="nav-item active">
        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Home <span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link</a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item dropdown">
        <a class="nav-link dropdown-toggle" href="http://example.com"
           id="navbarDropdownMenuLink" data-toggle="dropdown"
           aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">Dropdown link</a>
        <div class="dropdown-menu"
             aria-labelledby="navbarDropdownMenuLink">
          <ul class="d-md-inline-flex flex-md-row">
            <li class="dropdown-item">
              <ul class="d-md-inline-flex flex-md-column">
                <li class="dropdown-item"><a href="#">Action</a></li>
                <li class="dropdown-item"><a href="#">Another action</a></li>
                <li class="dropdown-item"><a href="#">Something else here</a></li>
              </ul>
            </li>
            <li class="dropdown-item">
              ...
            </li>
            <li class="dropdown-item">
              ...
            </li>
          </ul>
        </div>
      </li>
    </ul>
    <form class="form-inline my-2 my-lg-0">
      <input class="form-control mr-sm-2" type="text"
             placeholder="Search" aria-label="Search">
      <button class="btn btn-outline-success my-2 my-sm-0"
              type="submit">Search</button>
    </form>
  </div>
</nav>
