Like everyone else stated, my SCAB for what it is (offroad truck), handles very well around corners. I'm guessing it has to do with the overall wider stance.

I know some curves that I can do much faster on my bicycle than a late model corvette. At least I used to be able to, when I was racing a lot, and when I picked a fight with a guy in a vette... :893karatesmiley-thu

The truck handles curves well. Feels very planted - I live on a curvy mountain road, and the truck takes the curves a lot better than my taurus did.

It's the width of the track. This truck has its tires planted wider than virtually anything else on the road, and it corners like a sports car because of it. It is the best handling vehicle I have ever owned or driven.

Agreed, I run no sway bar and at mid perch and is nice. With sway bar on it is nice and tight, but I like the little more lean when I ask for it.
It is a truck though, so keep that in mind....
I kind of would like a less turn ratio rack lock to lock, so I less hand movement is needed, but oh well..... maybe one of our vendors can look in to that one.

Hmmmm. Rear ARB. I've only seen one other raptor with that. It came off after nationals were put on.
