ford maverick fx4 lift kit is there a mechanical problem with the truck after some time of use? I bought a maverick fx4, I'm from Brazil and I would like to know your current report today on the mechanics, if there was any problem.
Glad to see you're using your mav for hunting as well. Once hunting season is over i'll give her a nice cleaning. I would have like to have watched the video with out the fish eye/wide angle lens personally.
Yep! Currently sitting in Ohio in it about to go to sleep in the new sleeping setup I have. I will post a video once I get home from rutcation. Please subscribe so we can stay in touch through the videos. I won’t use it again. Everyone that comments mentions it 🤣
Just got the windows tinted on my mav. Definitely looking to upgrade the tires next. Even with AWD during turkey season I about got stuck due to the soft spring ground and stock tires.
Nice! This lift, tire, wheel combo has been great! I traveled to 4 states for turkeys this season and put the truck through some muddy and rough terrain and it handled it great! I was really impressed to be honest. Just have to turn off traction control when offroad or it won’t let the AWD do its job
@@reviveoutdoors4him Yeah, I saw a comment on another video. Guy said he had to remove the lift after 7k and replace CV's. I figured it had to be installed wrong if the story was even true.
Yes sir. A small amount in the after side of each wheel well. You will have to play with it to get it dialed in. It still rubs the carpet wheel well at certain times
I am using the factory shocks, but have considered upgrading if I add a Go Fast Camper setup, but otherwise haven’t needed anything more than the factory shocks and I have ran this truck pretty hard offroad. What are you thinking you will do?
@@reviveoutdoors4himnot sure what I’ll do. I didn’t realize I would be able to lift it for $300 .so I’m tempted not to add shocks at first. Would you say the brace and sway bar are necessary?
@@collinis1 from my experience, I would absolutely suggest the brace and sway bar because of the loosening and popping I was getting before I installed them.
Great video. I’m about due for a new vehicle. Been eyeing this and the Honda Ridgeline. Other than hunting, I rarely need a truck in my day to day, so this seemed to be a good fit.
It wasn’t much. I can’t remember exactly. If you’re local to the Birmingham area, I can connect with them, but if not, I would suggest calling around to a few shops and getting quotes.
I wish they made the hybrid in AWD. This is a gas truck. It’s actually a little bigger than 90s model ford rangers and s10’s everyone lifted back in the day. For me, I need a small truck with awd to go in logging roads and trails to refill corn feeders and change trail camera batteries for the nonprofit I run. It goes places big trucks wont go. Its like a side by side that can go anywhere you need it to on the road and almost anywhere a sxs can go in the woods.
Why would you buy a small house only to remodel it and make it bigger? Sometimes something is very close to what you want, but not exactly what you want until you mod it.
I have had my ford Maverick for over a year. And I will be doing my review soon! Great video.
Thank you! I am over 30k miles since this video. Be sure to comment back with a link once you post it!
love my Mav Lariat!
Happy to hear that!
Nice AR. Do you have videos of testing the capabilities of the 2wd maverick?
No sir, not the 2wd. I put the Hybrid 2WD through a good bit offroad but knew it wouldn’t be reliable in slippery terrain being only FWD.

I am at 40k miles strong with no issues!

How much does it cost to lift a maverick 2 inches?
@@deepsidhu4170 I have the complete build list in he description. Lift installed under $500. Wheels and tires will depend on what you want.
I have a 2023 Maverick lariat. I'm planning to lift it. Do your tires rub when you turn the wheel.
Thanks for watching! I had to do a little trimming but after that the rubbing went away
Any extra wear on the CV's or ball joints with the lift?
I’ve heard people complain about this, but I haven’t had any issues and I am at 25-30k miles now
@@reviveoutdoors4him Yeah, I saw a comment on another video. Guy said he had to remove the lift after 7k and replace CV's. I figured it had to be installed wrong if the story was even true.
Any trimming done in the wheel well to accommodate the bigger tires?
Yes sir. A small amount in the after side of each wheel well. You will have to play with it to get it dialed in. It still rubs the carpet wheel well at certain times
@@reviveoutdoors4him
Thanks! Good to know.
great video man! just wish you recorded it with something other that that camera!
🤣 thanks! You’re not the first person to say that. It was my first time using it and won’t do it again for the primary shot. Thanks for the feedback!
What kind of mileage are u seeing with the lift/bigger tires
Thanks for watching! Please subscribe to help us reach more people!
23mpg with the tonneau cover and 25-26mpg with the flated topper!
Do you get any rubbing with those 70’s? Usually i see 245/65/17
There was some rubbing on the after side of the front fender well, but we trimmed it a little and its been fine since.
What’s the ride height of it now vs that Denali ? They look pretty close.
They are pretty close now. I don’t know exactly right off hand, but the are within an inch or two
The lift kit does not include shocks. Did you add new shocks? If so, which?
I am using the factory shocks, but have considered upgrading if I add a Go Fast Camper setup, but otherwise haven’t needed anything more than the factory shocks and I have ran this truck pretty hard offroad.
What are you thinking you will do?

It makes a great daily driver plus hunting or offroad option for basic needs. It’s a great fit. I sold my Jeep and haven’t regretted it
My father, father in law and now me have Mavericks. My brother in law has Ridgeline. He wishes he joined the Maverick family 😂
How much did you pay for them to lift?
It wasn’t much. I can’t remember exactly. If you’re local to the Birmingham area, I can connect with them, but if not, I would suggest calling around to a few shops and getting quotes.
Awesome review … wish I had a drop of acid, to enhance the experience a little more. jk lol
🤣
Put your video back to normal , it looks off 👎
No disrespect but wth! Why would you buy a small electric truck only to lift it? You may as well have bought a golf cart
