Lifted Ford Maverick short update

Just a quick life update living with the 2" level lift. Overall I couldn't be happier. Works for my needs right now and fits in the garage! I did film a couple clips of bulb replacements. Haven't edited yet. If you're waiting on a Maverick to deliver, it's worth the wait!

Maverick 4wd would mean ditching the entirety of the driveline. You do realize the maverick is a grocery getter pickup for the city for people who dont have the need to go offroad. Why else would it be front wheel drive based off the ford escape crossover?

    How does the suspension feel with the 2 inch pucks? I have 1 inch level for the front and you can definitely feel the spacers it's sitting on through dips. How does yours feel with having the spacers all the way around? That was my main concern and was waiting for an actual spring set up

    Honestly feels the same to me. Still comfy over bumps. Had Ford do the four wheel alignment. Drives straight like factory. Just lost a tiny bit of turn radius. The rear geometry is the same because the sub frame is dropped an inch and trailing arms are dropped just over an inch.

    @@keganmowery4223 interesting. Glad your enjoying it. My shop did a stellar job installing and alignment have 0 issues with pull and drives great but can most definitely feel the spacers at times over big dips. Now that the suspension is laying on the pucks absorbing the impact you can feel slight clunkiness. Definitely noticeable when being compared to no spacers. Surprised you don't notice that now that the whole body of your truck is laying on the spacers front and back.
