Leveling kit options???

[Jmav216]

I'm curious I know there's a 1-in lift kit for the front to make it even with the back I don't want to lift it I don't want to lower the whole vehicle I just want the stance to be more even but I'd rather have the rear end lowered to match the front end just to give it a little better stance is anybody done this or no if this is doable also how high is the rear end compared to the front?

I hope you found an answer to this long ago. Yes, There is a 1 inch level kit from Rough Country (was on sale for $75.) That is basically just spacers on top of your strut towers. I purchased the metal spacers. They also come in a composite too. I do not have a Maverick yet, but it will get the leveling kit installed. Several video's on You Tube on how to install. Best of Luck
As to lowering the rear end, I would not mess with that, but if you do, Please post on this forum what was involved with that procedure!

Are these the ones you decompress the strut for ? I’m wondering if they make just bolt on or if u have to decompress the strut to install

I have yet to see a lift that doesn't mis-align the wheel in the wheel well. It's like the wheel gets shoved to one side of the wheel well. So I wouldn't go more than 1" (what the Tremor package does).

no, All you do is put them on top of the strut/spring assembly. Very easy install. several youtube video's on the subject. You will need an alignment after install. I have not installed them yet, and probably will not. They were just "Back up" in-case I could not fit my tires on stock suspension

 

[snowcatxx87]

Do you not use the bed at all? When you load up the back you will be blinding everyone and also suspension geometry will be way out of wack. Trucks aren't level on purpose.

I have a 1" kit for sale, brand new never installed

[Lhaddix27]

What is the brand. For these that are bolt on ? I found some at rough country but it requires the strut to be decompressed

Lol, very good approach. May also help traction for AWD variants!

For a moment I considered a leveling kit to give me all around extra clearance. Most applicable for when driving around my property for yard duty and yard waste center runs. Tad bit more room to navigate slopes and bumps.

Then I thought, wait, what pros of factory font to back slope would I be negating. Your post hits one. What about when I really drop decent weight in the back. Plans to make use of the 4x8 abilities etc. Nose extra high and tail down, then I'll look like I'm driving a boat home from HD.

I'll just stick to factory and spend my $$$ else where.
