Perch Mod Discussion

Man, I looked all over the place and I can't find any information on mid-perch, can someone explain it to me??


....I kid, I kid! I have two questions:

1) Has anyone had a dealer or shop do it in the Nashville (I know I can DIY, I don't want to DIY)

2) Is there any impact on mileage? I haven't seen that asked. Since the aero on a Raptor is not great, I suspect there is no impact, just wondering though.

Thanks!

Mpg? You bought a raptor and you're worried about mpg?

I haven't checked the mileage on any of my vehicles since 1998. I just drive 'em and fill 'em. I reckon there would be an impact, but it would be minimal, less than 0.2mpg if I were a bettin' man.

No impact here. Mine got better!

Asking this question on mid-perch vs. MPG is like asking if Vortex mudflaps actually saves you any MPG.

LOL, if I was really worried about the MPG, I wouldn't have bough yet another one (I am getting worse mileage with the SC model, because I get on the skinny pedal way too much).

Mostly, I am just interested.

Got the mid perch and alignment done last week at 1200 miles. Paid around $230 to do it at a local truck shop. Haven't gone offroading yet, but as far as daily driving, feels the same, but the truck sits much better (almost level). Could be placebo...but turn feels much smore responsive

Doing the midperch this weekend. On the alignment, New tires and rims next year. But set the alignment to the factory settings? Just want to double check.
