The truck is already low enough on its own so version two sounds a ton better than version one. Your truck looks, Rad. The tires are too big though IMO. Kudos to whoever did the video editing...pretty sick!

If I didn't have 2 other lowered vehicles, I would have left it lowered, and probably went even lower lol. It handles surprisingly well, and I would have probably brought it out to the race track a few times for fun. I agree the tires are a hair too big, and I'll go down in size once these wear out.

As for the video, I made it. And I took the photos.

How did you source the Bronco Sport Badlands wheels? I keep searching for them to see if anyone has them for sale but super hard to find. I like how they look on the Maverick. Truck looks great!

I come from lowered Ford Focus' so I thought this would be a slam dunk being lowered. The truck already handled surprisingly well, it had the same motor as a Focus ST, a variation of the Focus RS AWD system, soooo, yeah... lower it!

Here was my mistake... Before lowering it, I took it to an offroad park. I thought that if I was going to lower it, I should at least go play in the dirt once...

VIDEO:

I had a lot of fun that day, but I didn't think too much about it at first.

After lowering the truck, I noticed I was hitting parking spot curbs, swerving around every pothole, and dreading driving on some of the country road around where I live. I took it camping, and I BARELY made it to my camping spot because of the lack of ground clearance. I didn't like it lowered anymore.

Version 2:
- Everything in Version 1
- Except the Lowering Springs were swapped out for a Rough Country 2" Lift.
- BFGoodrich K02's 245/75/17
- INNO Roof Rack

- RubiGrid Dash Device Mount by BulletPoint

More mods, accessories, and video coming.

Your next mod needs to be adjustable suspension so you can lower it and jack it as needed lol

some of the new things I have done to my truck

 

[volksnuts]

I don’t understand why people post pictures of their own truck in someone else’s build threads (unless it’s specific to what the thread creator is trying to do)

 

[Tremor guy]

You can send your truck to Texas Metal for a frame and be on TV. Looks great

 

[Hac411]

Much much better!

Congrats on a SWEET ride. OWL tires are great. I love my lifted truck and there are lots of similarities but also subtle differences in our builds.

Congratulations and welcome to the lifted Maverick club!

What tire size and lift did you get?
