Super happy for you, looks awesome. I wasn't too sure about the Sparcos on a lowered truck but you've pulled it off in style!

Same with my Mav yesterday. Jacked it up just behind the embossed arrow and the whole side came up. Excellent body rigidity.

Everyone seems to be overthinking this. The whole length of the pinch weld should be strong enough to support the vehicle. It's a key structural part of the vehicle. The embossed "arrows" indicate more for vehicle balance than anything. I checked mine '23 out thoroughly yesterday when I...

Thanks man! The wheels are 19x8 from an Escape. I always loved the design and bought them more than a year ago anticipating they'd work. I did my homework because they fit perfectly. After sandblasting and powder coating I could have bought a set of killer aftermarket wheels, but this is the...

How much do you think these can carry? And how much do you generally carry day-to-day? How much do you expect the truck to "squat" with a load, eight inches? The fact is that the load carrying capacity is not affected, just the ground clearance. This doesn't make it any less capable, but does...

Now pushing 17 miles, ran over to my son's shop to return his spring compressor. Thought I'd stop for a quick photo opp.

The convertible Isuzu was my first mini truck circa 1988. I refuse to grow up!

Thanks! That Mitsu was one of my favorites for sure! Fast as hell, too.

Regarding my own post, I need to clarify. The stock 17's (tires) are slightly smaller than the 19's (tires) I put on, so the actual lowering I posted above won't be 100% accurate. I'm running 235/55R19's now. The difference in diameter is about 1/2" so in theory you could add an additional 1/4"...

Thought this was a cool pic. Need to clean up the shop but have to throw more parts at the Maverick first. :cool:

Me too! Now I have to clean it up a bit.

So far it rides pretty much like stock. The wider, lower profile tires do pick up a little more road feedback but it feels more sporty than anything.

Got CG my '23 today and lowered it on the 19's.

Well, the springs are in and so is the verdict. Stock front fender measured 33 3/4". Stock rear fender measured 34 15/16". Lowered front fender measures 31 13/16". Lowered rear fender measures 31 3/4". So roughly 2" front (Eibach claims 2.5") and 3 3/8" rear (Eibach claims 3.5"). (EDIT...

THIS. IS. RAD!

No secrets, this is what I ordered. Not sure how much I'll like it but worth a shot.

Nothing special, just a universal plastic one. I'll post pics when I get to it. In the shop now getting ready to install coils. It has 12.1 miles on it, LOL.

Awesome job, glad I could help!

Had them on my '22 EcoBoost. Just moving them over.

This is why I live in the desert! Still, if I lived where it snowed I'd be lowered and deal with it. The reality is that it's higher than something like a Honda Accord, so it's still completely practical. Thanks! This will be my "build thread" page. 😁
