I know you guys are gonna be hard on me because it’s lifted lol. I got it from the previous owner like this. 5.5 inch lift kit, upgraded eibach springs in the front and Firestone airbags in the rear. Sitting on 37inch nitto grappler tires. Bullydog BDX with custom tunes from 5*

Hey thanks man. You guys have lots of knowledge with these trucks. What is bad about it being lifted the way it is ?

Welcome to the place. Congrats on a beautiful Raptor. The worse thing about it being lifted that high is the angle of the front axles, you're going to have problems with those.

That’s true, at severe angles you can wear out the CV boots and joints. Lifted could increase rollovers in severe cases and just function in the suspension on how the factory originally designed it to work. Again a lot depends on your use of the truck.

Some of those lift kits just unbolt, but you would need a lot of of the factory parts to convert it back or good aftermarket pieces. Some kits you have to cut into the frame to get on or welded on. So going back is not easy or worth it.

Ok thanks yes I have none of the stock parts at all. Where would I check to see if it has been cut or not ? When I’m on it in 4a or 4hi the truck is all over the road. Pulling left then right etc. In 2wd it’s perfect could the lift be affecting it ?
