new ride for me, Its Maverick time!!!!!
- Thread starter megadesertdiesel
- Start date
this Mav is well thought out. it has 5 extra plugs behind the dash with acc power. The extra switch holes just have plugs in them, pop them out and slide in a new switch.
the front bumper is all aluminum and only weighs 4lbs. it also has some ugly Transformer bumble bee plastics on it that i tossed and cut off brackets then repainted it black.
for some reason the upper cage gussetts are boxed in with a plastic cover, those too came off and were tossed aside.
i drilled some holes under the exhaust and hung my license plate and wired up a light for it.
then i popped in a momentary switch in the dash and wired up a horn.
i also wired up my Quick Light, but need to weld on a tab for it tomorrow.
i need to stop by SDHQ tomorrow and pick up a rearview mirror and tabs to weld to the cage.
i also need to mount my Rugged Radio in the glovebox, weld a tab for the antenna and wire it all up.
i still need to make sure the two cars will fit inside the TH, i measured twice but untill i drive them inside you nevr know.
then i have to fabricate a 8'x4' platform on the back TH to hold the little ones Raptor.
eff me i think i will be fabricating on xmas day.

Look for the Bert's side x sides cruising through the dunes next weekend in Glamis. We will have the new Pro Armor doors and Two Brothers Exhaust on the Maverick. Thanks to Two Brothers and Pro Armor for getting us set up for the new year.
It well be nice to meet you Art i've been going to Berts when they where on Foothill blvd in Azusa and been dealing with Jason in the parts dept for years
I dont know what its like compared to the T4 but i did look at the dash and it looks like some plastic could be removed for more room. I fit ok but my knee's were right up next to the dash.

i just sat in both to see.
when seated with feet on the pedals i have about 9" from my knees to the dash in the T4 and 5" in the Maverick.
The dash definately cover more of your legs in the Mav than the T4.
my right leg has about the same room to the engine cover in both.
but my middle leg stands up while seated in the Mav.
i tried them all, rhino=with no tilt steering is now way jose. rzr=the middle dash has to be removed for me. canam comander=both left and right dash has to be cut out. polaris ranger=not too bad but oldschool. (felt like i was in a farm tractor) teryx=perfect fit. t4=perfect fit in all 4 seats. wildcat=was very tight all around but did fit. my middle leg stands up while sitting in trophy trucks. so i need to test drive the maverick. thanx for test fitting and measuring both.i just sat in both to see.

only the sound at 12k RPM.
that car turned into a frankenstein single seater with no reverse and a pita to get into. I also missed a few dune trips due to replacing the motor twice. It got old to wrench on it before driving it all the time.
