It's not a direct swap and will not fit on the normal Maverick without cutting a bunch of stuff off.
No one actually knows at this point-

This guy has had solid info from day 1. Also, if you just look at a side-by-side comparison you can see that the whole lower mounting for the bumper and radiator module would have to change.

Would like to see an aftermarket option at least - Just a slight revision with some upsweep that removes the silly picnic table lip/shelf with metal instead of plastic -

Taller tires, taller springs/shocks, upgraded axles. The rear suspension does not have as much a lift as the front which is why the Tremor appears more level than an FX4.

The takeaway is that stock geometry does support aftermarket lift kits to a point, but axles can become a weak link if you beat on it hard.
What he said ^^^
Pretty much a Bronco Sport Badlands setup, AKA H.O.S.S.. The Badlands springs while taller have a slightly lower spring rate (softer) which might explain why no tow 4K package on the Tramor.
The Sport is limited to 2.2K tow across all models.
