how do i jack up my back end of the maverick

yeah mostly it will just a little on the passengers side to. they rub on the inside not the outside. i could put like a 1/4" spacer in and it would fix it.

 

mine rub on the outside... right on the edge of the tire.. the rim is deap enough that the inside is not a problem

 

well darn!

 

i was afraid i would have a blow out

 

I can second this. Mine were in the lowermost hole, for the highest lift. My springs were straight-no arc at all. I dropped them down to the highest hole, the springs regained their arc as soon as I took out the bolts. The ride height was basicly unchanged, but the springs now work as they should. I think your problem is your wheels, they have too much outside offset. I'm running 225/70/15's, 26" tall, on mine, with no clearance problems what so ever on an 8" rim. I know some of the guys are running 275/60/15's without any problems, so that tells me your wheels have the wrong offset.

 

What flip kit would fit the stock axles on these cars?

 

Flair the outside fender wells (eastwood makes a nice flairing tool) coil over shocks helper springs,? IMHO jacked up is just "JACKED UP". Lower profile tires might help. Kits are just more stress and wieght, like putting on more duct tape. (Bailing wire and chewing gum is not economical or safe} Go back to basics.

 

...old thread, but...

if the tire is...fat...the rim is too wide...i have 275s on 15X8s...no rub.
also...why do people buy a set of rims and then try to make the car fit them...

 

a blast from the past! so nieve... still am.
