Combat Raptor

[factive]

I really like RPG's products and customer service. But when they sent my stage 2 it was thrown in a box, individual components clanging together and without instruction. The bottom fell out of the box and filled the UPS truck, the sidewalk in front of my store, the bed of my truck, the road on the way to my house, and my garage with packing peanuts that were also smashed up into small pieces. What a mess! I still need to install it. It looks straight forward but I'm waiting on a few tools to get here

You should've seen when the boxes I had in the back of my truck broke open on the road. It was quite a scene, people were not happy and it took me forever to pick up.

Some new go fast parts showed up today from SDHQ. 4.88 gears



Plus a shot from last week out at a place called Topaz Mountain in Utah.

Looks great! Let me know how you like the 4.88's! Should definitely have some more pep! Be sure to follow proper break-in procedure

Wow. Combat gray looks amazing. Combat green would have been too. Love the contrast!!!

I got my rear leaf springs re-arched on Friday. I had the National SDs that have sagged since day one and I've been suffering from a severe case of donkey-kicking on high-speed off-road runs. Here is a link from a full writeup: Springs and bumpstops - Page 37 - FORD RAPTOR FORUM - Ford SVT Raptor Forums - Ford Raptor

TLDR; National SDs have always sagged. I wont buy from RPG again. This is the best 'mod' to date. My truck performs extremely well now and I am happy with this suspension setup for the next little while. I highly recommend taking your truck into a professional spring shop and having them perform a little magic.

@factive where did you find all that sand? Is that coral pinks? Also next time you're in Moab let me know! I will head over, I have been wanting to do some wheeling out there with other Raptors.
