Lol, sounds like better to get a new leftover 19 put bumpers on myself and leveling kit. I assume those are ok?
I always tinker with every car I own. I’ve fully build my M5 and spent about what they are asking for the truck into the build. I know I’ll end up tinkering with this one

@WHYUMAD what was that dealer that mods the trucks you know of. This dude needs a truck he can throw shit on and have in the loan for a good price.

Those 22s and the lifted look is garbage. Leave that for the regular F150s.

IMO.

assume BDS kit is still not a good option for this truck, correct?

NO NO NO NO NO I would not even be looking at this truck. If this shit were true no one would buy mid travel kits and they would just buy this shit. They sound like they are trying to say you'll get another 4" of travel due to their kit *****

2017-2018 Ford Raptor 4" Suspension System. This new lift system for the Raptor is based on the popular BDS 4" system for the standard F150s. Many of the components from the standard F150 kit carryover like the ductile cast iron steering knuckles, laser cut/CNC formed, fully welded crossmembers and differential brackets, etc.

We determined in testing that the 4" lift height allows for the best use of the full range of suspension travel allotted by the factory suspension components. These factory components include the high-end Fox Racing Shox at all 4 corners of the vehicle. These internal bypass coilovers (front) and shocks (rear) are what really make a Raptor the truck it is.

By properly relocating these coilovers and shocks, we are able to maintain that amazing performance that makes the Raptor a true offroad machine. The front coilovers are relocated with a heavy-duty spacer at the frame mount while the rear shocks are relocated at the axle with bolt-on brackets.

Other Raptor specific items included in the kit are front brake line relocation brackets that maintain adequate brake line slack for the massive amount of wheel travel available. Raptor specific front skid plate relocation is also included to maintain the signature Raptor front aluminum skid plate and have it blend cleanly into the BDS front crossmember.

Out back, in addition to the rear shock relocation brackets, is a 5" block and u-bolt kit. The 5" block replaces the factory block to net a level stance and includes a bump stop wing for proper bump stop engagement offroad.

my neighbor runs BDS on his Duramax and it's ok... for THAT kind of truck IMO, but no "lift kit" is good for a Raptor. remember with a little modification you can get 37s stuffed in there.

that picture of the lift block on the front Fox shocks made me want to puke.. god that's terrible!

at the end of the day it's your money, but the majority of us on here would tell you if you want a lifted truck buy a regular F150 and lift it. If you go down this road and buy a lifted Raptor and you keep thinking "everyone on FRF loves their truck yet this thing sucks!" yeah that's because we warned you lifted Raptors are shit lol.
