Here’s my 3/8” drive breaker bar with a 18mm socket. I also opted to use a cheater pipe over the handle that gives you more leverage. Others are using an impact driver if you have one.
Been busy at work and missed this posting. Any idea when they'll be back in stock? Looks like a great solution - would love to get one ordered at the discounted price if possible.
The inspiration for this product came from an earlier post, discussing how to provide protection for the underbody blank area behind the rear left wheel. In addition, many people privately messaged me asking if I could develop a product to provide protection for this area. Meeting the needs of our customers is our mission. Therefore, in the end, we managed to create it.
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of the Mabett Underbody Cavity Shield Cover for Ford Maverick.

Why you need the Mabett Underbody Cavity Shield Cover?
This concerns the open cavity at the bottom of the vehicle behind the left rear tire（Perhaps some of you are not aware of this).
There are a lot of exposed wiring in this area. The interior body panels are open and the tail light assemblies is visible. Accumulated dirt and mud in this area, along with salt and snow can lead to potential rust issues. Our shield cover can solve the problem perfectly.

good to know you were able to get those frame bolts out with a breaker bar. I received shield kit yesterday and started the install but got stuck when I couldn’t get the frame bolts loosened with just a ratchet.Here’s my 3/8” drive breaker bar with a 18mm socket.

How did you order? It still says unavailable.
Aaaand, they're gone
I ordered, told my nephew to hurry up and order and when he tried it was already out of stock 5 minutes after I placed my order.
As mentioned I attempted all these suggestions and it was just not quite enough to make it work. Maybe if I had a lift and an extra set of hands…You can try loosening the surrounding screws a bit; it should make the last bolt holes easier to align and tighten.
You can also try flipping the part, as the lengths on both sides are different.
Dang, that's a bummer. Does it feel solid as it is, with no rattling or is that bolt necessary for holding it tight?
Thanks for the write-up and pic.Ok so I just spent an hour getting this reinstalled.
4/5, but hopefully this pic / tips help others. ( Apologies for the crappy pic, hard to get good lighting and position the phone to get a high quality photo )
Pink circle is a frame bolt that is not visible here, above the tailpipe.
1. Install Plate 1 and do the yellow bolts into the nut retainers. There were a huge pain to get threaded. leave these loose
2. Add the larger frame bolt in ( circled in teal) leave this loose
3. Put plate 2 up, and make sure the 2 brackets you installed are close if you flex/ move things around. It is easier to readjust these with plate 2 not attached. If needed adjust.
4. Put the 2 orange bolts into plate 2 leave these loose
5. put the brown bolts in, then the pink bolt
If you leave everything loose, you should be able to shift / adjust to get it all lined up. I also unclipped the wires wrapped in the aluminum / heat tape and move them a little higher ( near the teal frame bolt / left brown bolt )
I will probably go back and remove the frame bolts, put fresh green Loctite on and torque to spec if someone shares the right torque.
From a coverage perspective, this is perfect.
I used a 10mm on the small bolts, 18mm on the factory frame bolts, and 19mm on the included bolts. An open ended wrench is needed for one of the brackets as there is not very much clearance for a ratchet.
Thank you for the detailed instructions and helpful tips.Ok so I just spent an hour getting this reinstalled.
