Get the bump stop kit! Your frame can't be fixed as easy as the cross bar. Plus lets be honest if you would have just watched where you were driving you would not have damaged the cross beam. You were the only one and you were mildly driving vs Jeremiah and I.

lol if i could i would cover the whole bottom with skid plates :) plus i want to hold off on the bump stop kit until i see how all three kits have been tested... im almost 99% sure im going with the RPG stage 2 kit but want to give the other kits a chance to impress as well...

Take a look at the Outlaw kit.

Alpha 1 FOX Racing Bump Stop Kit.

The Alpha 1 FOX Racing bump stop kit is designed unlike any other bump stop kit on the market today. The Alpha 1 kit is the only one to fully box & encapsulated the Raptor’s frame rail on the inside and outside and it utilizes the factory OE frame curvature on both the back and front side of the frame rail. By encapsulating the frame entirely the frame has 100% protection against compression bending but will no compromise the crumple/impact zone in the event of a rear end accident. The Alpha 1 bump stop kit is designed to take the full compression load off of the Raptors frame by letting the FOX Racing bump stops absorb the compression impact when the Ford Raptor rear suspension completely bottoms out. The 120 walled chromoly cross bar insures a exact fitment from frame rail to frame rail with use of 3/4” FK heim on both ends. The use of heim joints allows you to pre load the cross bar by turning it tight and locking down the cross bar heim’s jam nuts. This is a accentual pice as no to frame rails are the same. By doing frame supports this way, we were able to preload the encapsulated frame supports to maintain the correct geometry rather than using a flat plate that misses all OE supporting contours of the factory frame rail like other kits do. The design of the kit allows the use of Deaver or factory OEM rear leaf spring. The leaf spring bolts on the lower axel bump stop strike pad in integrated in to the mount. The bump stop strike pad is relocated from the inside of the frame rail to the outer of the axle. With the the proper engineering, design, and off road testing behind the Alpha 1 FOX Racing bump stop your Ford Raptor will have the maximum durability and support.

This is the exact same kit Outlaw Raptor runs on it RSV vehicles on the Raptor Expedition adventures. With over 15,000 miles of harsh abusive off road use this product is tested and proven.

All Alpha 1 FOX Racing bump stop kits are powder coated black.

from all of the reccomendations and build quality its outlaw and rpg seems to be the favorites but price and test proven outlaw seems to be the kit of preference.
