volksnuts’ Lariat Maverick build

[volksnuts]

Seems like the key to Silvers is the Swift springs. Has nobody tried swapping to Swifts with the Scales shocks? Not a cheap test, but might be alot better than what you got??

I think the struts on the Scales are the problem
I tried both sets of their springs on mine (not swift springs but I know it wasn’t just the low springs that were the problem)

Silvers needs to offer a forum discount with everyone going to them.

They came with adjustable end links as well as not needing to swap the tops of the rears

Also these go really low

*that might be a picture of me getting out of the driveway…. But still

Yeah the sway bar end links are nice. Did you're brake line Mount on the front strut seem to line up fine? I had to bend the mount tab some bc at full turn it put the brake hose in quite a bind.

I don’t think there was an issue
Now I feel like I need to put it up in the air to look (will look when I raise it a touch)

Why did I waste 30k miles of driving on Scales????
A little mad right now
Silvers ride so much better
Need to raise it up a little as it is rubbing the liner a bit too much

What spec’s did you go with? Custom spring rates? Swift upgrade? Supper low?

After I installed my Silvers, I took those front flaps off. Just a few screws, takes only a minute.

I got the Lawrence Giles spec
These are the regular ones not the super low

Looks so good! Post up some more pics. Also do you have the part number for the BAP grill bar and do you know what it ran you?

I guess to document the changes made

picked it up a little over a week ago (November order)

Hot Pepper Red Lariat Lux FX4
Rolling on Vision Monaco 20x8.5 with 245/45/20 Falkens
Lowered via Scale coilovers (low version)
Lots of little things added (tailgate strut, hood struts, Buschur intake, window tint)
A couple of modifications of note:
Retro fit a/c controls with the temp screens from a 21 Bronco Sport
Editing this part real quick
The Bronco Sport controls caused a fault in my drive mode selection so I ended up switching to an Escape control panel that works flawlessly
Some people have been able to use the Bronco one with no issue
I guess your mileage may vary

Red tinted taillights to get rid of that weird clear/chrome section all Mavericks have
Rocking a Raceface tailgate pad since I bought this specifically to carry bikes

There will be many mods to come as I have time and trying to wait on products to be released
I’m not good at fabricating things so I try to not if I can help it
Let’s see if anyone notices what was done in this last pic (and it’s not the removal of the headrests)

enabled fog lights in the cluster…. Still a work in progress though as I need to add some wires to the harness

Black Apearance Package headlights and fog lights now installed

tailgate spoiler

what tonneau cover did you get- hows it working out?

Undercover Armor Flex and it’s the best cover you can get (in my opinion)

After looking at several options I went ahead and ordered the Lawrence Giles spec Silvers coilovers

Anyone want some used Scales?

I need a good ride, so I might have to order the Silvers coilovers Lawrence Giles spec. How much did those cost? Thanks. Truck looks great that low. And the color as well. Also how does the ride compare to the lowering springs? I have the H&R super sports .

It’s been a while since I had the H&Rs on but from what I remember the springs rode like stock where the Silvers are a little stiffer but my girls tested the ride today and they said it was just fine
1000x better than the scales (which made both of them throw up at different times after eating)

I ordered them and got them like a week later, Silvers rule (Scales took 4 weeks to arrive)
