new raptor

[jut619]

hello everybody my names justin, new to raptor forum
im thinkin about selling my 07 tacoma for a new 13 raptor
ive read that if you drive your raptor to hard it might set the bed alignment out of place, but also you can purchase parts to make the back end more sturdy?
so my question to everybody is what is the first thing i should do when purchasing a new raptor. lift, tires, intake, exhaust, let me kno your guys opinions.
thanks again guys

Welcome aboard! As Fred stated, stay away from the lift & leveling Kits. Go with getting a Mid Perch done. Do a search on Mid-Perch and you'll find plenty of info on how to do it yourself, or have it done by a 4x4 shop or even a forum member/Vendors. Good luck on your acquisition of a new Raptor.

air bumps in the rear perch up front, No to leveling kits front.
Oh, and welcome aboard!!!

It's very advisable to troll this site for a while to get an idea of what mods you would like to do in the future. Meaning learn from others mistake's & gains before spending your money.

to the forum Justin. I'd say suspension upgrades if you'll be doing a ton of offRoading. But I agree with Blind, lots of great info on here that you may find useful.
