It fits and has been great, I added new shorter frt sway bar end links. If you'll look back through this thread, I posted a link for them. IF... and only if, you put it on you need camber ajustment during the alignment then there are separate parts for that also. I installed them and ended NOT...
I thought the same thing. I ordered them and then looked at them compared to the old ones before the install and was like thats not right they sould be longer🤣, It's the way the sway bar mounts to the body, below the suspension. When you push the strut down further it gets closer to the sway bar.

And the fender flares are Mabett from Amazon

The lift was Rough country 2" but I added these shorter front sway bar end links godspeed SB-TR-180-12 https://ebay.us/m/q7fOoF
I was talking about flatout's lowest priced option.
As far as the struts & shocks I didn't care for, I was talking about the Rough Country stuff.
All of flat out stuff looks amazing. But I'm cheap lol I got the RC lift for $100 + $40 of Frt end links
& Flatout's cheapest kit was somewhere around...
If anything it would be a softer ride, but I'm not a fan of their shocks & struts.
Adding the spacers basically increases the spring rate(shoving the spring into a smaller space) so it has a slightly harsher ride.
Flat out offers a heavier rear springs with their kit upon request...
I'm in the same boat with my truck I daily sometimes 96 F150 EFI 429ci with granny 4 speed on 37s
No problems yet, but I put those kind of things on alot @ work. And you have to have have a very clean surface. Surface and air temp have to be be above 60ish degrees before applying. I don't...
Well the results are in for the first tank
12miles when I got it with a full tank
370.2 miles on OD @ fillup -12= 358.2 multiplied by 1.069 tire differance = 382.92 actual miles driven
divided by 12.304 gallons to fill it up comes out to ....... 31.12MPG🥳
Rated @ 37mpg combined on the window...
I corrected myself in another post, the 2wd & awd hybrid use the same front cv axles & & it is a new p# for 25. now weather it is a improvement or not IDK
I don't without ordering them & doing the measuring myself. which my boss would frown on. Since cost money to return them. but if I see any come across which we have, I'll try to get some measurements
Not hearsay, this is a fact, us as the parts dept got a lawyer and they took a sample of customer pay ROs & that is the rate Ford warranty pays parts mark up. Now you are correct as far as time goes if they say 8hr that's all that's paid, but I believe the Labor rate is the same way. Again this...
I am not,
See here in Arkansas we have laws that make manufacturers pay the same mark up as retail. So I know, Our dealership would rather do warranty work than customer pay🤔
We dont turn poeple away for sucha a small lift or level kit, which is common place here on almost all trucks. 2"...
as a Parts person for the Ford dealer our catalog does not show a New p# for the 25 2.0L Eco boost Maverick only 2 different p#s regular axles & Tremor axels
Now there is a new p# for the hybrid AWD and 2WD Maverick for 25 that is different than 22-24 axles. p# is the same for 2wd and AWD
I'm sorry are you or have you ever been a dealer warranty admin, or a lawyer? Me neither 😂 I'm just a smart cookie🍪 but I've been part of warranty process, in one form of dealer or another for 15yrs or more🤔 9yrs with Ford.
I'm sorry you've been misinformed
"For example, if you had repairs...
Anytime you change the factory geometry there's risk. I felt 2" wasn't enough to worry about, seeing how it's like running with stock suspension not even @ full droop
The one I just bought @ employee price AKA D-plan was bout 2k off what MSRP(what ford.com showed on the one I ordered).
Dealers don't make alot off new car sales(without adding things to them to make money off of) they make money off trade-ins, warranty, service, and parts sales afterward...
It doesn't void any warranty, BTW ford has to honor the warranty unless they can prove the those specific accessories caused the issue. Idk why any dealers turn work away with certain things like that, the dealer makes money on warranty repairs.
I work @ a Ford dealer, in parts. What they mean is the vehicle itself will be @ employee price. Any addons whether dealer front loading or customer will be extra. Our new car SM never adds anything on to new ones. unless a customer specifically asks for it :rolleyes:, Which is good and bad...
I just purchased my wife a 2025 Maverick Hybrid AWD in Eruption Green and she wanted it a little lifted
I installed the rough country 2" (even though it says it doesn't fit a hybrid)
I work in parts @ the Ford Dealer, and all the parts that matter are the same between the 2 (Hybrid and non).
I...
