Do you prefer lifted or stock Gen2 Raptor?

Great to see everything from stock to leveled to raised with 37’s. They all seem to look pretty good when done right. To each their own. If it’s a DD with little off road, I suppose I’d lean towards stock or front leveling to preserve a pretty great ride the stock has. While I literally live off road, I opted to level the front with the Eibach’s and think the ride is the same...just partial to the non-rake look. It’s all personal preference.

Feel lucky to have such an awesome truck I can do so many things with. Though my bank account doesn’t appreciate all you guys suggesting this or that. Within 6 months I’m gonna pour probably 10 grand into this fun little project. But, having a blast doing it!

Stock was fine for the first week,till I got used to the truck limits. I haven't even consider a leveling collar or springs its a 20% improvement over stock in my book. But it simple ,people with off road passion ,experience and love will lift there trucks and spend X amount of $$$ on the suspension and other supporting modes.People with mild off road or newbies who have never drove an off-road truck fast in the dessert will be satisfied with the stock height because the approach angle and ground clearance is better than any other truck in the market.

I prefer the stock, and need to have it stock lol. With about an inch clearance in most house garages, we barely fit it in the garage in the Midwest.

This ^^^^ is a very good explanation of the different setups, IF it remains true.

The issue I see are the ******-nozzles that jack them up to ridiculous pinion and CV-joint angles because they can't afford to do it correctly for optimum performance, or just too stupid to realize the difference.

My guess people looking for attention just jack those trucks up and some of them spend good amount of cash on these upgrades. Yes to each his own but man why would you destroy a very capable off-road -on road truck and turn it into a very uncomfortable stiff ride on road and off-road just to show it off and get that thumbs up.

The most irritating part is when I come across a lifted 4 inch raptor with a 4K likes on IG and people really dig it.

Makes me wonder why?

Stock is plenty high enough

Finally got to a place where I could take some pictures. 1 inch lower in the rear.
