Brian,

Thanks for the comparison it gives me something that I can relate to. I appreciate your efforts and detail in your writeup. Driving over the same turf gives alot of credibility to the products

Glad to help!

As for power... I have done absolutely nothing. And I have the "boat anchor" 5.4L. In my opinion the power of the stock Raptor, be it 5.4 or 6.2 is more than enough to take full advantage of the upgraded suspension. Stuff like what you see in that RPG video are a perfect example why. Any more power than what we can already push with mods like those, and you're in a performance territory that demands a full cage, full 5point harness, full helmet and neck collar, bigger stronger brakes...

This is strictly my opinion, and I reserve the right to change it at any time ;) but the stock Raptor is already an extremely capable consumer level play toy. Add mods like the RPG stuff and you've elevated it to the level where even a professional trophy truck driver comes away grinning from ear to ear. Throw another *** horsepower and torque at the thing and you've created a race ready truck, that demands race level skill and safety. Your margin for error has evaporated.

Long answer to a simple question, I know. Sorry for rambling :)

No, you need not apologize. I am not into breaking things, especially my neck. Thanks again. Stephen

Stoner,

As short as it was, it is always good seeing you brotha. Guys, I'm trying my hardest to get this video done for everyone to see. It seems like there is never enough time in the day. Anyway, we took a big swing at the rear valving and the the rear-end is dialed in. Next up, getting the front to work as good as the rear now. Don't get me wrong, it works insane out of the box. However, I sure most of you have learned by now average doesn't work for us.

Rest assured that when you buy the Fox 3.0 bypass's from RPG we have spent many hours and miles testing in the harshest conditions to make sure these things are dialed in to work in harmony with our Stage 3 kit.

Fox hit a homerun with these shocks no doubt about it. Corey just happen to step up and hit a grandslam to ensure you will have the best working truck available when rocking RPG parts and setup.

Here is some pics to hold everyone over until I get the video done.

Testing, RPG style.

Big thanks to Marc and Rowdy for helping to make all this happen these past few days of testing.

I absolutely want the shocks, but my main question is if you can adjust extension and compression independantly?

I can't see that info anywhere, but I'm guessing I missed it.
