This is some information I got from scale when I asked about different spring rate and adjustments on low vs standard sets.
"On a truck or SUV , we always want to keep the payload and towing capacity while preventing rubbing when lowered , so the default spring rate of each version remains the...
Sweet, I figured I'd just grab stainless hardware locally. Can't wait. I've spent my budget now on audio and coilovers so wheels and tires will have to be next year 🙃. At least I will get some use out of the factory tires.
Look up volksnuts lariat under the builds/photos forum. He has the low version. There is another on Facebook that has the standard. I screen shot his before and after below.
I had a full set including cargo mat in my jeep renegade trailhawk for 6 years and they were great. The ones for the Maverick are a perfect fit front and rear.
I installed mine yesterday. Fit was perfect, front seal tucked under the glass, tailgate closes easily. However both plastic corners were broken. I contacted them and they are supposed to ship new ones. I also plan to glue the corners one since they are easily broken.
I sent them a message to see what they recommend. Hate to just pick a spring rate and it be way off. The F100s we have built ride great on 550-600F, 220-300R. I'm sure being frame on vs unibody would make a difference. Hopefully I will hear back from them soon.
They are a option I'm considering. I'm concerned about the stiffness of the 16kg/896lbs springs since mine is a daily driver. I messaged them about possible softer springs that would still allow for some daily driving and light truck use.
My 66F100 has a crown vic swap front suspension and no limit engineering fatbar rear suspension. The coilovers are ridetech 550lbs front and 220lbs rear. 16 kg springs would be 896lbs. That was what surprised me.
I wonder what the stroke of the rear shock is to need a 16kg/896lbs spring. My ridetech coilovers for a 1966 F100 are 5inch stroke and 4kg/220lbs springs.
