Scale Suspension Coilovers for 2022+ Ford Maverick [installed photos added]

I maybe should be a little more scientific on my preload
Will have to check that

Yeah that preload, incorrectly set, will make the most expensive coilovers feel like shit.

Well I’m glad they started presetting it then

Yeah. I would recommend still checking the preload yourself. Inspect what you expect. They don't mention how much preload they apply.

Just wanted to take a minute and thank you guys for all the great info here and pictures. Dropping my Mav is one of the first things I plan to do and you've all made the decision easy with this thread.

Def a good idea to check other peoples work
I’m just lazy

Just to confirm for myself and likely others: The standard kit is within the range of adjustment for alignment even when all the way down? I know @volksnuts was looking into rear lower control arms, etc. to be able to adjust correctly for the low kit, but I haven't seen any firsthand verification on alignments with the standard kit so far.

P.S. Mine are due to be delivered next week -wheels are already here-, but at this stage I may wait until spring to install. Not sure yet.

I got mine aligned today everything on the front came into spec with only camber bolts. No adjustment of the camber plates. Rear is good except camber. Both sides are 2.3 degrees negative.

Nice
I’m pretty much the same we just haven’t done the front with the cam bolts…. Waiting for the rear to get figured out
The rear camber though

I guess I’ll go back to my alignment shop to see if they want to try fabricating something

Im going to try friday i let you know.

Day 3 finally feels better

Still need to do an aligment on it friday im going to try to install the rear control arms and do the alignment myself . Hopefully i can make my own front bolt aligment since i did not buy it.

can a hybrid xl be lowered in rear as the AWD

Yes, it can be lowered but it's a different kit from the AWD.

With the tailgate down, would any of you mind measuring the height from the ground to the tailgate? Trying to figure out how much easier this would make loading my motorcycle into the back

Anyone know the spring rate of the F&R coils in the Low version? I'm working on a lil something.... a theory. Installing a different set.

18" from ground to tailgate when opened...
