I was only able to confirm the front leveling kit would based on a member post here. The rear is where the suspension differs and the 2 inch kit would not work.

Hoping for some more options to come up in the future. An adjustable height shock would be perfect.

I’ve been wanting to get the 2” lift kit for my FWD XLT, but was worried about this. What makes the rear not compatible with a level/lift kit?

This is great. Do you know if this voids the warranty? I just saw another post where someone leveled his truck and was denied a warranty claim because the front was leveled.

Can we get an update on how this is doing?

I want to do this but....
1) Rough Country says their 1" leveling kit will not fit the Maverick Hybrid.
2)Are there are alignment issues?
3) Are there any issues with sway bar links?
4) Did you install the leveling kit yourself?

Hi - without being redundant, I just had a question regarding front end vibration after your 1" leveling kit was installed. I just got off the phone with the RC guy and he told me the reason they show this kit for the AWD only is because they tested it on the FWD Hybrid and even thought the suspension is the same, they found the lift causes vibration (mostly when getting up to freeway speeds) - he said it had something to do with the transmission setup on the FWD vs AWD. Have you experienced any front end vibration when driving on the freeway? Thanks in advance for your input.
