Perch Mod Discussion

For what it is worth, got a quote for $178 from a shop over on 620.....quoted it as if they were changing the shocks.

Does that include the alignment? If you that wouldn't be a bad deal. Bell's Customs or Krawltex might do it also (both in Cedar Park on 1431).

That price is just for the perch adjustment. I seem to remember they charge $85 for the alignment.

Mid Perch or Not?

Debating whether to go with mid perch from day 1 or not with my 2013.

Leaning towards driving it for a few months first so I get a feel at the stock bottom setting and then probably going mid after that.

I know top perch is a no go for us 2012/2013 owners but are there any downfalls to mid perch on a 2013? Are we still increasing the stress on components? Just less than top perch or do you guys think there's no appreciable difference between bottom and mid perch?

I want mods that will improve the off-road capability of my Raptor as it will not be a DD. It will see high speed desert and regular off'-road terrain.

Thanks for your input in advance!!

i just got mine done recently (as you already know) and i do notice there is less body roll around turns. i wanted to see how the truck drove first before i did any mods to it, so i waited a couple months

I wait a whole month! Love it and agree with Noah's comments above.

Wait if you like but it's absolutely worth it. I went about 6 months stock, then went to top perch for 6 months, the went down to mid. Mid is where it's at. No one ever went from mid back to stock that I'm aware of. Several people went from top to mid.

It took me about a month to get it done, should have done it on the first day!
