Sounds good, I have a base XL AWD so it should be fine. I called yesterday to make sure I ordered the right front top mount and also wanted to know if the rear subframe spacers would be available now or is there a 8 to 10 week lead time for those as well?

I’ll post a little update here, I ordered on Aug 24 (we’re headed into week 10 since I ordered) at the week 8 point I email asking for an update on the build if I should still expect it by week 10 etc and didn’t hear back, I assume they must be busy but I mean a quick message like it’s still on schedule or it’s gonna be delayed an extra week or whatever would have been nice, super stoked for it to come in whenever that may be!

Sorry we’ve been flooded with emails. I just looked yours up and it’s in line for packing. Shocks are built, just need to get them in a box! We have about 17 orders in front of you so you’ll probably get a shipping notification early next week.

Hello everyone!!

This is my first post (wanted to wait for vendor status), so just wanted to give a little product information, a bit about us, the usual stuff. Some of you may have heard of us, but felt the need to establish more presence.

So, I'm here to promote our suspension lift. I know there are already options out there, but hear me out. The options currently are limited to strut top spacers or a shock/ spring replacement as it seems. We do things a bit different. Ok, a lot different. Our lift is a complete package. It is a full replacement to the OEM hardware. Couple of quick facts:

1. Height adjustable. If you want 1.5" or 2" or more, just set the perch height.
2. Weight compensation. Besides adjusting height to counter sag, we have overload springs that take the sag away.
3. Adjustable dampers. Cushy to firm (not like riding on bricks, just more responsive).
4. We have everything you need. Adjustable endlinks, camber arms (rear), camber bolts (front), rear subframe drop.
5. REBUILDABLE shocks! Don't throw them away, we can give them new life for $195 per corner.

Ok, if you're still here, thank you...

I could expand with paragraphs on points 1-5, but do I need to? I'm happy to, but I find most is self explanatory.

So why us? Well...[deep breath]...we were founded in offroad. A different bit of offroad than maybe you are used to. Half the efforts went towards racing (rally/ rallycross) and the other was the light off-roading/ overlanding types for Subaru vehicles. Both have absolutely blown up in popularity, especially the overlanding. We know the CUV market, we live and breathe it, every day.

We are constantly asked everyday, "can you make a suspension for _____ or for a _____?" Well, one of those times (several, actually) was "Can you make a suspension for the Bronco Sport?" We were intrigued. So much so, that we bought one as a company vehicle. We then found the Ford Maverick and the Ford Escape interchange! That didn't just open the door, it kicked it open like a SWAT team.

The day we picked up the Bronco Sport:

A mere 2,100 miles later:

(No the roof basket isn't weird, it's the angle creating an illusion - stop trying to figure it out)

We bought our 22 Outer Banks because any time we need to develop something, it's right outside. Any time one of you has questions about our suspension, we can video chat and walk right up to the car and answer with video in real time. And also because, well, I really like driving it! Sure, it's not a Maverick, but as the components are identical, we can help just the same.

We've already started with this one... obviously the suspension (our own BS was used to develop), Method 17" wheels, some Falken Wildpeak tires, we have the cross bars, a roof basket, skid plate, etc. etc. We are going to make this a fun little rig and we're going to tour the country (as time allows, of course).

We are starting with our suspension offerings....

1. GR Lite. Our entry-level for ground clearance and light offroad.
2. GR Plus. This is our mid-level set up using inverted shocks. Stronger than the Lites.
3. GR40. This is our heavy-duty off-road suspension built for endurance.

Take a look here ---> All of our Maverick stuff

Ok, so I'm just going to close with a little story about what we do, what we've done, etc...

As mentioned before, we started in the world of rally and offroad Subarus. So we like to think we know a bit about making a tough, long lasting suspension. Our venture into other brands really took off last April. I mean, we had built some crazy stuff for people; which quickly became our thing. But last April, Rhys Millen Racing (google them!) contacted us about partnering on a build for the Baja 1000 race. Volkswagen wanted to do the unthinkable and run a production EV (Volkswagen ID.4) in the baja race. They said Tanner Foust (famous rally racer, drifter, Top Gear USA host...maybe google him too) was going to be driving the car. Did we want in? Immediately YES. So we did. If you know anything about the baja race...it's brutal. A lot of cars don't finish. Baja breaks cars. The VW ID.4 finished. Our spare suspension didn't even get unpacked.

After that, we just soared. Since then, other manufacturers have contacted us about other projects. It's been really fun.

I don't mean to make it sound like a horn tooting fest, but I think it's important to know we aren't just some fly-by-night dipping their feet in the pool. We are in it.

This intro ended up longer than intended, so lets start some conversations. If you have questions about our suspension, fire away. If you want to know my favorite planet, I'll answer that too.

Anyhoo, I'm really excited and happy to be here and I hope we can do a lot for everyone here.

Thanks for reading!

I'll give the first three people that order ANY of our GR versions a discount code for $350 off your order, just please please please send us installed pictures!!

The Discount code to use at checkout is

It appears the Tremor is lifted in a similar way using "Unique front/rear springs" and shocks to achieve the 1" increased ride height. Would it be safe to assume the Flatout suspension would increase ride height by .5" - 1" on the Tremor?

The Tremor is like the BS Badlands where it’s just slightly different to allow for the same range of lift over the standard models. It’s still 1.5+ on the Tremor due to unique shocks for that package.

On the products, it’s selectable as 2WD/ 4WD/ Tremor to differentiate.
