once I'm completely done i will have a truck that will outrun a raptor for $20,000 cheaper. I like building my own things when i can. you learn to appreciate what you have when you build it yourself. the fact that I'm 23 and have a truck that looks like a $70,000 truck and push it further than most can do in there stock trucks makes me love sitting in the driver seat. i can tell you my truck doesn't have the electronics, 6.2L engine, or interior but she gets me from point a to b with compliments everywhere i go.

Just so long as you acknowledge that the compliments stem from the fact that they think its a REAL Raptor lol

Oh, and you can't outrun my Raptor, nanny nanny boo boo!

$16,000 for the truck with 18,000 miles, $800 for the bed, $500 for the grille, $350 for headlights and tail lights, $1000 for hood, valence, fenders, $200 for the vents, $1800 for rims and tires, $3500 for front suspension. $8200. then sold most of my old parts for about 4,000 so all in all about $4,200 for the conversion.

I only think it'd be an issue for certain events. Snoball would definitely be a no go. I'm sure you saved a lot doing the work yourself. It may be a wannabe but at least he did it the right way.

Jackrook, if you don't agree then leave it be.

aww is someone mad??? hahaha relax dude don't call something fake if you don't know. you forget to realize 4wd has great benefits but why do you think trophy trucks dont run 4wd??? travel once I'm done i will be able to pull off another 4-8" of travel than other 4wd raptors. my truck already outruns stock raptors. everyone asks what year is my raptor so if i never told you it was a f150 theres no way you could tell. plus theres a reason i left all the raptor badging off my truck because people like yourself get all butt hurt about that type of stuff.

Looks good. My only criticism is "no 4x4 " . Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Plus when you can't get that Chevy out of the ditch all of us will be judged by one trucks weakness. :(

Otherwise great job and some hard work I'm sure.
