There is enough room under there, you just have to NAIL the backspacing.
The export brace setup is awesome. I almost purchased it for my mav but there were too many differences between the Mustang and Mav firewalls to make it work. I might go back and purchase the shock tower plate and rods later if he'll break up a kit though.

Too bad the Maverick is not as similar in dimensions, to the mustang. That'd make it a lot easier.
I like your Maverick BTW !
For backspace, I used a 95-98 mustang wheel with a cut and weld on the inner rim, and machining on the hub face of the wheel, to go as deep as I could.
I'm not sure how that wheel fits on the maverick.
I did a lot of calculation, with wheel and backspace combinations, before cutting the wheels.
After I got it all together, I ended up pulling the wheel in a little tighter with the hub face machining. I'm maxed out with the 17's and the UCA's now. I'd have to go 20's to go deeper. Honestly I don't want to go 20's on the car. 18's max, and that doesn't gain me enough to switch.
I'm pretty happy with where I am now, but I run a race camber spec to make it all work and not rub anywhere
