Rear suspension upgrade for chase rack recommendations.

[SVTRaptorNY]

That is an ongoing debate, currently being tested by several of us.



The +3 will jack up the ear of the truck, about an inch + over mid perch height.



If you dont want that look or need that travel go with +2.

So basically without load the +3 will give the truck that rake look and with load it should settle in even with front?

with weight, it will give you a level setting more at top perch levels. not mid perch.

Alright good to know. I'm going to be doing mid perch myself this weekend hopefully. Going to be a pain as this truck has gone through 2 New York winters so far.

Go with plus 3's!

I sacked out my plus 2's in less than 5 months running a bed rack. (500-600 lbs. in the bed at all times)

plus 3's are holding their own as of now.

Deavers or whose make +2's?

Yeah Deaver. Should have gone with +3's from the start running with a rack in at all times.

I am really happy with them thus far.

I have the Saints rack and run a set of Icon 3.0s. The rear sat a little low when bed was loaded with just the 3.0s. Recently got the Deaver +3 and now truck sits level when loaded. Very happy with ride quality improvement as well.

The jack skid plate is from Saints and the jack is the Harbor Freight 2 ton.

So 2 ton is enough for the raptor? I actually almost picked up a 2 ton raceline from harbor freight.

As for the suspension I think I'm going to go with deaver +3 and then do the rpg stage 2 bumpstops. I'll wait on the 3.0 shocks until I need them.

I tried to do mid perch myself but after 2 winters in New York it is t pretty. I made a appt with KHC for the 10th of July. Hopefully they can get it set.

Appreciate all the advice from everyone so far.
