So, I jumped my Raptor four times on the road this week.
After inspecting the truck, I found that the front tires had contacted the inner fender liner on two places on each side, and pushed on them hard enough to pull out the plastic push pins located at the front lower edge of each liner.
I'm running stock wheels/tires, and my tires are at 50% tread. The truck is also on the stock (lower) perch setting. I had thought there was plenty of Clearance in the wheel well for 37's, but now I'm not so sure.
I know if I ran the middle perch I'd have more preload, but ultimately if I hit something hard enough it's going to compress the suspension all the way.
The rear of the truck had plenty of clearance, and watching videos of the jumps in slow motion, it's clear that the rear of the truck never bottomed out unlike the front.
So who here is running 37's and jumping? How is the tire clearance on your trucks at full compression?
What mods have you made so the 37's fit when stuffed?
Thanks
