Haha we'll just mob around in our long travel raptors. Boats and hoes.

In my opinion, if you short on money and want to go fast now, the best idea is to build the rear 1st while you save for the front. The front cycles just enough that the rear could be lacking, once you get the rear cycling more/cleaner the front will handle better
Has anyone looked into the cost of the axels for the front?

Oh yeah, a correctly built cage should be mandatory if you plan on going fast, the stock cab is built well, but you don't want to take that chance

How do you build a cage properly without chopping the roof off and stripping the interior out completely? That would be a big job

To upgrade the RAPTOR suspension !!!

Cool!! Not sure it will be on my mod list anytime soon, but very cool.

* 2"-4" of lift
* 16" Wheel travel
* 2" wider per side

I would love to see some overall pics with this kit installed. The install requirements seem to have been copied straight over from the '09-'10 F-150 and not modified for the Raptor. It noted that 4" flared fenders and different wheels were required, but it doesn't appear that they made those changes to the Raptor (well, the fenders anyway - can't tell for the wheels).

Here is a vid from Brenthel of the previous body style ('04-'08) with their kit installed:

Very cool, but why would you buy a Raptor in the first place if you were going to rip out all the stock suspension anyway?

Just wait. I bet someone will do a solid axle swap on one someday...
