Before & After: Lowered Maverick on Eibach Springs (2022 XL FWD)

[CB116]

Got the Eibach lowering springs installed. Took about 2 hours overall. Install was pretty easy. The hardest part overall is putting the strut back in, but that was minor. I also painted my steelies all black. Pictures of before and after for anyone who is curious how much it dropped. 2 inch front and 3.5 in back.

Looks good! Any noise coming from the front?

I finally got my Eibach lower springs install this pass weekend. It took me about 2 hours to do the rear in my garage and just over 4 to do the front at a garage with a lift. I've never done a spring swap before so there was a bit of learning curve, but nothing really technical. Just time consuming doing it by myself. Overall, I’m really pleased with the results and especially how the Gray Unicorn looks now. (she is in dire need of a wash!)

Next up is wheels and tires!

None at all. Haven’t got the alignment yet, but camber is difference is visible.

Lucky you! Bunch of us with the same install have been getting knocking noises from the front end at slow speeds when turning the wheel. Had them re-installed, retorqued, inspected. Everything looks pristine, and the truck drives fine, but getting annoying noises from the front. Enjoy the ride!

Just a tab bit stiffer only really noticeable when going over speed bumps. On the OEM springs I would be a bit of bounce coming down off the speed bump, now it's no bounce! I do love the way cornering feels, stiffer no lean!

Thanks!! I'm really glad I did it! I'm also glad I did before reading through all the different lowering threads where folks are having issues!! I might have changed my mind about doing. In this case, ignorance has paid off!
