For the Hybrid you need to take off a plug that's connected by plastic clip. I did not realize it might interfere with the hood locking till after so I took the risk and unplugged it, plugged in back in below the bar. Other than than a super simple install. Have yet to test it out though. Your install video helped me a lot to actually make my purchase. Thanks!
I recently ordered a 24 maverick, and have been watching your videos. Being a mechanic the last 50 years, i enjoy watching your videos, short, concise, and not loaded with a lot of yak...yak...yak. keep doing what you do, excellent ! 😊
K&N filters are for racing, not for everyday driving. Check out the comparisons on you tube. Don't ruin your engine, put a foam sock over the filter to keep the small particles out. Love your video.
Bro thanks for the video. Still waiting for my 23 to get in ordered it at the beginning of the year. Most likely will be waiting a long time because I'm over seas in Germany.
What improvements are expected with the strut tower brace? I don’t plan to drive the vehicle hard - so I’m wondering if there are other benefits for a normally driven vehicle.
It gives you a more positive steering response at the cost of a slightly harsher driving experience. It makes the truck feel more solid, and the more road you feel doesn't bother me. With that said, if you enjoy enjoy the ride of your truck, I'd save your money.
@Flockingtheherd I own a Maverick. It doesn’t say that in the filler cap, and it specifically says you can use 87 in the owners manual. It says to use premium if you are doing something that requires more power, like towing. 87 is recommended for the focus ST, and every other vehicle with the 2.0 eb. I think you need to double check your sourcing. You might be getting confused with the 2.3 eb in the RS. That does require premium gas. However, the 2.0 eb does not. The computers are perfectly capable of regarding timing, which is really going to happen at high RPMs, which if you have driven a vehicle with a 2.0, you would know doesn’t really happen as it makes most of its power relatively low in the rev range. So not only did Ford design these engines to run on 87, electronic controls are ensuring the engine is safe despite what octane you use. The only times you really might want premium is if you’re really reving the engine hard or if you are towing. Sorry for the long comment but it’s really annoying that you appear so confident obviously having not read a single users manual for the 2.0.
Hey I don't know you from anything. Don't believe anything you hear or read. That's what absolutely be a waste of money. Ask him to show you the performance numbers on a dyno before you spend $350. Use that money for a tonneau cover.
I’m putting only the front strut tower brace on my Tremor as the rear needs to be disconnected when off road to articulate. If I don’t like it then I’ll take it off. The Tremor suspension has a really balanced ride and handling

That’s why I would get the afe
I've run k&n filters for years, my Ford escape 2.0 has 200,000 mi on it, he's not going to ruin anything.

I installed the rear sway bar and it is really making a noise. Been two months and the sound is still there.
Ford notes that be bolts are torqued to 23 foot pounds, not 30
do the bushings go over the stop or next to them inside or outside of stop?
They go on the outside of the stop. Be sure to put a TON of grease on the inside of the bushing as I have had problems with squeaking

Check out Overland Florida's channel he has a Maverick he has outfitted for going offroad
Can you put a lift kit on this maverick ? Like 2 inches both front and rear. Also your truck turbo do you put 94 gas or 87 gas?
I'm going to put a suspension lift on it, but I'm still getting funds for it👍also I've been running 91 octane gas
@Flockingtheherdnot true. Minimum factory spec is 87.

@Flockingtheherd also I took a look at the spec sheet and it doesn’t even have a section for octane. You’re straight up misremembering stuff.
What K&N filter system do you have on you maverick (where to buy and price)
It is the K&N cold air intake from their website and I believe it is $350. I made a whole video on it if you want to check it out👍

@@jackman2010101got 22 maverick and K&N filter and its worth it. Definitely more pick up and love the sound it makes.
Do they make a rear sway bar for the FWD hybrid ?
At the moment, it seems they only make one for the AWD version.
Set the parking brake!
Setting the parking break is for the rear of the vehicle??? Why, when the rear of his truck is off the ground ?
@@Retiredatlast65 Good point. Maybe put block of wood in front of front tires??
Does this brace work on maverick tremor?
It should work for your tremor, but I'd contact customer service just to be safe
