[QUOTE="Squatting Dog, post: 266214, member: 1688"] This is NOT directed at any one member! First and foremost a Ford Raptor is a truck, if you wanted a car like ride. Then follow some of the suggestions for OG Raptor owners. Adjust your air pressure in your tires. Put some miles on your truck, to break in and loosen stiff parts. Adjust front shocks to mid perch. This allows an additional 1" or so of bypassed (softer) shock travel. Replace factory leaf springs with progressive leaf pack (national, deavers, custom) Get rid of low profile sidewall tires, the Raptor suspension is designed to work better with tires that have a sidewall.. No 50/40/30 aspect ratio sidewalls! Remove the swaybar, increases the body roll, but keeps front end harmonics down across little stuff. And if all else fails and you still want a car like ride, buy a car.. -Greg [/QUOTE]
