This is a small update, but I think it makes a big difference. I bought some door handle covers and painted them to the match the body color. The process was fairly simple; scuff with 400 grit sandpaper, apply adhesion promoter, apply primer, apply color, apply clear.
Here's what I used...
Keep in mind that it took 3 years for the eBay version to come out for the 22-24. I'm sure somehting for the 25+ will drop, it's just going to take time.
I put one of these of my truck a couple weeks ago. I used a texturizing spray that was recommend on one of the face book groups to get it match the OEM trim a little more closely. I attached mine with the OEM hardware in the wheel wells and used 3M tapeon the top of the lip where it meets the...
I would get the same spec XL that I already have with one important change; I would add the CoPilot 360 since it was the only way to get power mirrors on an XL. My sales guy neglected to tell me this when I ordered and it's my only regret.
I bought my Maverick with the intention to modify it...
Finally got the correct Forscan cable and was able to make some ECU changes. I now have the Ford Performance speedo, ST splash screen, and gear indicator enabled. Looking forward to making more changes in the future.
I also found a YouTube video that explains how to the use Forscan to the...
New cable was delivered; no more issues. I now have the ST splash screen, Ford Performance speedo, and gear indicator. Can't wait to try more mods. Thanks guys!
Interestingly, my paddle shifters worked without any Forscan changes once I wired them up (I have a 2024).
Thanks for the replies! I got the cable to work, but I can only connect to the PCM and BCM. I tried flipping the switch, but it had no effect. Time for a cable upgrade!
I got the truck aligned on Thursday. The combination of a proper alignment and the Goodwin sway bar make the truck handle better than I thought was possible. WOW!
Today I installed the eBay "AD Style" from lip; ablatant copy of the Air Designs unit that is 3 pieces instead of one. I'm not...
Today I finally wired up my paddle shifters after having the steering wheel in the truck for 2 years. LOL. I purchased the cable in the attached pic some time ago and attempted to use it for the first time today. The problem is that the cable came with a CD ROM with the software on it and I...
Made some addtional progress...
I finally got my SPC camber arms, Massive Speed toe arms, and Goodwin/Progress sway bar installed. Overall the process wasn't too difficult, with the exception of removing the OEM sway bar. I had the camber and toe arms off to upgrade them and I dropped the...
It's been a long time since my last update. I haven't forgotten about the Maverick, but the Miata continues to get the bulk of the fun" budget". That said, I've finally been able to make some addtional progress. Yesterday I installed a set of Konig Aeris wheels (19x8.5) with Continental DWS06...
I'd love to see shocks with adjsutable damping that work with lowering springs (Goodwin, HR, Eibach, etc.). A hard plastic undertray to replace the "fabric" one that comes from the factory would be great too.
I'd also ask you not to forget about the "22-'24 models. With some of the changes...
Mabett Team - Would you consider producing a front lip spoiler for the 22-24 Maverick? The only offerings currently available are the Air Designs peice which is priced at $400 or an eBay unit that includes tacky LED lighting. I'm not willing to pay $400 for a piece that will likely be damaged...
Added bed lights this weekend (I used the Nilight kit from Amazon). The process wasn't difficult, but I took my time to ensure an OEM-like installation. This required dropping the spare tire to route the wiring for the passenger side light over to the switch on the driver side. I used zipties...
Just a minor update, but I finally installed a clean side catch can. After doing some research, I landed on an eBay set up that was a whopping $32, LOL. In comparing what's available these days, it appears that even the high-dollar set ups are using the same catch can as the eBay kits, with...
ShadowBlack XL440 - This is on the "To Do" list, still need to download Forscan first. LOL.
I sold the Jaguar wheels last week (managed to get back what I paid for them). Before I loaded them up I took a minute to weigh them. The wheel with a 255/55/19 tire and TPMS weighed a whopping 60.4...
No significant updates, my Miata has been getting all the attention for the last few months. I'm still planning to add a Goodwin sway bar, lightweight aftermarket wheels (sold the Jag wheels), an intake, CVF intercooler, CVF downpipe, and a Livernois tune. Painted door handles, mirrors, and...
I have a 2024 XL Ecoboost AWD with the 4K tow package and a spray in bed liner. My only regret is not opting for the Co-Pilot system as it was a good way to sneak power mirrors onto an XL. Otherwise, I LOVE this truck. It gets 32 MPG on the highway (consistently), can haul just about anything...
