LOBO rear suspension

[Mox4615]

Apologies if this has been posted but I couldn’t find exactly what I needed…

Does anybody have a link they can post of what all is needed to do a rear suspension swap over from a LOBO to a regular AWD Mav. I seen the suspension on Fords website but wasn’t exactly sure what all was needed to swap out. Is it just the rear springs? Do I need any other hardware? Camber bolts? Etc.
any help or links would be appreciated.

I also have the FX4 package which comes with slightly different suspension than a regular AWD Mav if that helps anybody’s input.

The only unique rear suspension components on the FX4 are monotube shocks. The LOBO springs and swaybar are what you will need for the full rear modification. I believe you will have enough adjustment to bring alignment into spec with your factory components. At least one member here switched the springs and said alignment wasn't an issue.

I recommend just getting a lobo, seems like a lot on nonsense for something already made.

Nah I’ll pass. Mines paid for and I don’t want a Lobo, I just like the way it sits and with the parts being interchangeable it’s the easiest way rather then going with a full lowering kit.

Yeah, ~$400 and an hour of work is so much nonsense compared to losing a lot more money trading in for another vehicle and not getting what you want.

There is a Lobo shock package and a Lobo springs package that is available from Ford. I couldn't tell you if the shocks are valved differently from a regular model. I will likely be doing both kits regardless on my XLT.

The spring and damper kits aren't going to the OP much good if he only wants to modify the rear suspension.
New shocks aren't a requirement, and the individual rear spring part numbers are shown here: https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/rear-spring-compatibility-lobo-4k.64473/post-1078768

The Lobo front springs are different as well.
If I remember correctly the shocks and struts are revalved Tremor parts.
