Most here won’t call any lift kit for a Raptor great to begin with. If you do a search however. There was a guy recently that wanted to add a lift kit to the truck. He said it’s a street mall crawler and didn’t care about off road performance. He wanted to get a certain tire and wheel combo on. That brand recommended was the best option.
cool thanks will post pics when i get her delivered soon

so who does great work on lift kits on a raptor ?

If you're happy with two inches, throw some new springs on and reset the shocks. That will actually improve off-road performance. More than that? Honestly, buy a regular pickup and turn it into a Brodozer. It will save you money and you'll end up with the same poor performance off road.

If you're not going off road, you don't need a Raptor, but there's a lot to be said for buying something that's ready to go and not having to spend the time and energy doing mods, so if money isn't an issue, go for it.

Icon or Deaver leaf springs in the rear sized depending on your constant load + springs and/or perch collars from a multitude of different options in the front to level.
Nobody does great work on lift kits on a Raptor, because you shouldn't do a lift kit on a Raptor.
I live in Florida and even I know this. We Floridians don't know how to do anything well except make headlines and spread the Rona.
