    Well I finally got my car trailer finished so now it is back to the Mav. I got the car on the ground today and have been playing with the ground clearance. The bump steer appears to be minimal.

    coil over 2nd pic

    In the first pic I have the coil over mounts up higher than I would normally have them, I just did it to approximate the ride height with the engine in it.

    Steve that is awsome!!!!! Man your front, cometgt1974's rearend set up, think of the possibilities. I just have to say thanks, for doing this to a mav, most would been working on something thought to be "better" than an old maverick. that is truely a work of art.
