My measurements right now are 40.5” front, and 41.5” rear. I have the SDI top hats ready to go, but am thinking to either go with the Eibach 1.5” rears, the RPG 1” spacers, or the RPG 2” spacers. Need to decide soon, as I want to get these top hats installed

RPG 1.5" perch collars worked just fine for our '23 Raptor V6 EcoBoost with a factory Performance Package. We decided to re-align it in case something was a little off in it's front end alignment. It turned out nothing was off in the front end. Easy / peasy.

SDI top hat & eibach 1.5 rear installed 10 days ago. first i tought it was 5~10% firmer, but more i ride it, feels almst like stock. I have 23 37PP. after install my front raise to 43.5" & rear to 44" (before the sdi & eibach picture installed with height, i have no idea why it's 2" taller now, i will messure it again after something settles, in about one more week). Do i need UCA? Can i keep stock? I have SPC cambolts and wanted to know if i need the UCA before i do the alignment?
Damn that looks good

My sits even @ 44"s all the way around with the RPG collars, plus I took it to an authorized Ford dealer for a re-alignment after the collars were installed. It took them less than (1) one hour to align it, barely off @ all, so I was told by their service advisor @ Laird Noller Ford in Lawrence or Topeka KS.

My '23 Raptor Eco Boost has a "37" Performance Package, just in case that info is needed for Y'all.

Less than an hour in a half @ $85-$95 per hour out here plus + I had mine re-aligned @ $99.00 at a Ford authorized service department. It only took less than a half hour, I used the RPG collars, easy peasy install, just bolt them up, plug & play, and off you go.
