Finally decided to lift the Raptor! Need help deciding....

Do whatever makes you happy. If you like the way it looks and don't plan on pushing its off road limits then more power to you. However if you ever plan to really take this thing in the dirt I would agree with the others and say look at other option.

That looks clean AF. Have you noticed any issues with handling or ride quality either on or off the road? Also what backspacing did you use? I'll have to get new tires and wheels too

Thanks!

Ride quality is still great. It is stiffer than stock, like a lifted truck usually is but only a little. Sticks corners on the road really well. Slightly less flex offroad. Deavers are on the wishlist one day. I really don't remember the offset though.

X2 on Deavers and Geysers with 37"s. Lift kits ruin a Raptor.

But the Op lives in Texas and all his neighbors have lifted trucks!

Looks nice! I feel like 4" isn't too bad. I wouldn't go 6" or 8" or anything like that and become too top heavy, but I definitely like the look of the 4"

Which kit?

I feel like those that are interested in a lift kit are going to like having a lift kit, and those that wouldnt consider it, aren't. The things that you gain by lifting it arent usually the things those that dont want a lift are after. Just two different kinds of owners.

Oh, and when they say it retains all the factory ride quality and such.....yeah, that's called marketing.
