There goes my kid’s 529

(This is my dealership in Austin, which means this truck is too close for comfort)



(in truth there were prob more custom parts than true raptor swap-ins)

Nice! Will probably be the one and only, I’m sure it cost a pretty coin. Love the fender flares!

I know you’re being sarcastic, but that’s the thing: I’ve not yet seen anyone do more than a basic lift on a F150L

or on any F150 with IRS for that matter

this build was a lot more

I miss the ride quality of my Raptor more than anything

As a raptor owner, I love this idea. No truck drives like a well tuned(suspension) raptor.

So true! And for that reason I hope this never becomes a commercially available service/kit or else I am in trouble

ALSO, they swapped on a higher-trim grill and light bar onto the Pro, which is interesting.

I would like to hear exactly what they did parts-wise, though!

Still holding out for a Fox and/or BDS verified solutions. Heard it is coming (many calls and emails with them). But not sure it's going to be what we all hope. Looking for a 2"-4" complete lift, including the rear.... probably super pricey if they ever make it. That rear suspension is a whole other thing entirely.... Still hopeful though.
