FWD Hybrid Lift or Level Kit?

[Gill]

good evening, i used HRG leveling kit on my wifes hybrid and she like how it makes the truck look. its an XL so got rid of the steel wheels and got some bronco sport take offs and had some off brand 245 70 17 tires on it, i have to admit i was skeptical on the kit but have to admit the kit is great, been driving the truck for about a month now no banging or weird noises coming from the front end and yes this truck will probably never see dirt and we do get laughs but hey it still do 400+ miles on a tank and i know im probably killing the motor and tranny but hey happy wife happy life

Just in case you want to increase your milage, my neighbor lowered his Hybrid Maverick and gained 6 MPG for doing so.

Dang that's wild! I wish there's was a kit where you can +/- the suspension so you can lower on the interstate and lift on offroad

I saw this a few weeks ago but I meant one that could be wirelessly controlled

The FWD rear suspension is different than AWD, so most lift kits won't be compatible unless clearly stated otherwise. You should be okay with certain leveling kits assuming they aren't raising the rear also.
I've got the Rough Country 1" leveling kit waiting to install. There is someone else in the reviews confirming it works on the hybrid.

Rough Country 1" leveling kit installed:

5000+ miles driven so far with no issues.

Just a note here: a few cases of defective axles on hybrids being replaced under warranty. May not want to give them an excuse to deny claim. Might want to wait. Just thought I'd pass it on. This also hints that the front end of the Ecoboost might be different if it's not happening there.
