Please don't do the fabtech lift... I would sell those 38's and go down to 37's. You will benefit from the lost weight versus 38's and 37's will go with stock suspension. If you do the fabtech lift you will ruin your raptor. There is a plate that lowers your front diff and with that much power, I'm not sure how long that will last. Just go with the RPG stage 4+. Front beef up everything and give rcv axles a call. Ask them what their axles can take. I know they are tough but I'm not sure how tough.

I am still up in the air about suspension. Not really interested in Rpg I will most likely look into SDHQ or Rogue. The Fabtech covers a lot of my needs I live in va so there is no baja racing and big jumps in my future. If it doesnt work out I can just swap in another setup. RCV axles have had lots of problems so not sold on them either.

Looks like it will be an awesome build! please share pictures along the way. Also please please dont run the fabtech lift! SDHQ or Rogue will set you up with something much better

Please don't lift your Raptor the stock suspension is truly incredible and one of a kind it makes the raptor a raptor. It does not deserved to be neutered. A Fagtech lift will never get you that soft plush ride of the factory suspension!
