First time ive seen a trailer still conected to the truck with all the tires off not to mention the trailer! if one of those jacks under the raptor would let go it would not be pretty. a raptor with a flat tire looks totalled

For a tire rotation i dont think jack stands are necessary but seems to me removing all 8 tires was more for the gram if anything
LOL they did this while I was across the parking lot at Home Depot - they do this all the time they said, the trailer was lighter than the truck by a longshot - they said 2 pumps and it was in the air

+3 HD at a minimum

you guys are all saying +3HD - why so high? I was thinking Icons with the helper spring...

tongue weight of this trailer is 460Lbs, Raptor can handle 800lbs

I'll tow this thing 6 (maybe a few more) trips per year - I didn't have the WD hitch connected at this time either

what would the truck look like with Deaver +3HD with an empty bed and no trailer? I don't want a crazy down rake

No, I said +2HD or +3HD cuz I don't know what you carry around in your bed. From what you are describing, the +2HD seems to be the ticket for you. And Deavers > Icons.

First 3+HD because hundreds if not thousands of us have been in the same spot and that is what has worked.

"Raptor can handle 800lbs" that is the part that got me. Have you ever seen a Raptor with 800 lbs tounge weight, the bumper is dang near on the ground. That is the whole point of replacing the springs.

As stated the +3 is only 1 inch lift over stock ride height.
