Install is delayed again as the dealer dmaged my truck doing the airbag recall. I have the new springs installed on the fronts and sourced a set of HD Whiteline adjustable end link in the correct length to go in as well. Will port updates if I ever get to install everything and test out the...

Reposting as this thread is more relevant: Truck went in for an oil change and they did the recall while it was there. Got the truck back with damage to the dash (BIG scratch and a chunk missing), damage to the door panel (scratches), and dirt/grime etc on the headliner and both a-pillars. Tech...

I went in for an oil change and they did the recall while it was there. Got the truck back with damage to the dash (scratch and a chunk missing), damage to the door panel (scratches), and dirt/grime etc on the headliner and both a-pillars. Tech also left me a pry tool in the center console...

What does the section width have to do with anything? :ROFLMAO:

FWIW, Many of the Fluid Film kits include a tube and nozzle to do just that. Personally I'm a fan of this stuff for areas that can't be more permanently coated, but using something epoxy based for example on the exposed areas tends to be the better long term bet (with proper prep, of course).

Are there compressor maps available for this turbo and the OEM to compare? I didn't see a flow rating listed on the site either so that'd also be something myself and likely others would like to know.

:p That's cause no one makes a differential housing out of sheet metal. The standard diff covers, sure, but you don't lift anyhting by the cover anyways. No one makes a carrier case out of anything that would flex from just a jack as it's fail under load long before lifting it could do any damage.

Following up to consolidate what I've been told by Scale on the spring rates: AWD standard drop: 10k front, 12k rear. AWD low version: 12k front, 14k rear. FWD Low they said is 12k front and 10k rear. No info on the standard FWD drop from them.

Finally got an answer on the standard drop spring rates. Surprisingly they are stating that the fronts are 10k and the rears are 12k!! I did confirm this was for AWD and the standard drop. I should also add that they suggested 15mm of preload to boot. I think I'm going to stick with my original...

I do appreciate the feedback and insight. I have some prior experience with custom suspension setups and some racecars (road course stuff), so hopefully that helps me. I am focused on the spring rates because that's all I can change with this setup, and the damping seems to be decent overall...

I am trying to source the spring rates that they provide on the standard drop, but not having any luck. If they are 10k/8k, then 9k/8k on Swifts should be good IMO, but if they are lower, then I'd prefer to go softer still. I don't want to buy springs twice (again), in essence.

I'm trying, but not getting anywhere finding out the spring rate provided on the standard version. If anyone has any luck please let us know. I am still between 9k and 10k for the fronts, and would love to know the rate they used to help me decide.

Also, be aware that the trim level/options dictates where the rear clips are located. They are not in the same place across all Mavericks.

I've been kicking around the idea of buying a set of Swift springs for the Scale coilovers for quite some time, and after reading through the Silvers thread by @2016BoostedGreyGoose, I'm heavily leaning towards doing so. I've yet to find the spring rates for the standard drop, but was leaning...

Agreed, kind of. While it's not ideal, given the velocity changes and flow capacities of the stock exhaust, it'd absolutely be an improvement over the stock DP/Cat, and without all the noise of a full 3" system. As someone who's built a lot of turbo 4 cylinders, they pretty much all sound like...

Loctite PL Premium construction adhesive will seal any gaps without issue. Use it all the time building home theater speaker cabinets, and car audio stuff too. You plenty of setup and working time, and it's thick so it's easy to get placed where you want it and smoothed out. Just don't get it...

I just looked again and no change it seems. I know they said they'd revisit it in May, but was hopeful something was up.

Link? Google is not giving any results for the Mav.

One difference I noticed in the descriptions was that the Stainless Works downpipe should work with OEM exhaust and their offering as well, where Fast Maverick's seems to only be 3" aftermarket exhaust compatible. As someone who'd like to keep things quiet I'd prefer either the OEM fit or an...

I've had one since the original preorder, and other than it sometimes not liking reconnecting after a short stop or on/off cycle it has been great. I had it in my Focus RS prior to the Maverick, so multiple vehicles with only that complaint.
