We appreciate all of the feedback thus far! We will be using this info to present to manufacturers to hopefully get some new products onto the market! If you are in the camp of Lift or Level, we do offer the Rough Country 1" Leveling kit and 2" lift kit on our website! I will post them below.

1" Leveling Kit: https://www.pandamotorworks.com/col...country-1-leveling-kit-ford-maverick-4wd-2022

2" Lift Kit: https://www.pandamotorworks.com/col...ugh-country-2022-ford-maverick-2-lift-kit-awd
I hope that somebody picks up the lowering option soon. It would be pretty awesome to have them and my wheels by the time the car finally arrives. Then a weekend of mods and a new car to drive.

Front lowering springs are in, just waiting on rears.

Should have lift springs coming in the near future!
What's the drop? Are part numbers available? ETA on being able to purchase/pre-order?

Shooting for 2" front, 3ish" rear. These are still in the prototype phase so no ETA yet.
Any word from Eibach on spring rates? Obviously the Mav is not as capable as body on frame trucks when it comes to load/tow, but I'd hope they adjust the rear rates to maintain payload. Would hate to ride on the bump stops if anything heavy goes in the bed.

Lowering it 3", you are going to be riding on the bump stops with any payload. You would have to increase the rate exponentially to get to the same load with less travel.

OE rates are:

Front: 150 lbs/in
Rear: 208 lbs/in

Some cars ride on the bump stop from the factory, it can be a tool to get ride quality/load handling.
