I have installed one on my Raptor and it is fantastic! Highly recommend! No more one legged burnouts...lol..upfitter switch and you are locked up. Everything works with no fault codes. Must be comfortable with electricity and wiring. I will do a professional install for $300.

good luck with your exploding spider gears. theres a real reason why ford designed the disengagement.

Also, when traction control and/or stabillitrak kick it, enjoy the repair bills if the rear end is locked.

This.

It doesn't need it and you're asking for trouble. Raptor Assault staff has said for years it wasn't an option to lock the diff due to strength stock, let alone modded.

I've tore it up with the best of em and never felt the need.

Mud drags, dirt drags, nhra pavement drags, donuts, etc.


You don't need it

I agree that this is not necessary. It is also not necessary to have a 4 wheel drive truck with 600hp. The reason I like the push button rear locker is strictly for fun. Get on a gravel road, sand dune, or any low traction situation, lock up the rear end and steer with the rear. It is fun and that's it. The truck breaks without any modifications so if that is the argument, you may want to buy a hybrid Toyota, they are less likely to break and you can get really good fuel economy. I love my Raptor. My buddy has the new Dodge and it is always stuck in 4 wheel drive. He has the same problem multiplied by 2. My truck is no longer covered under warranty, so yes I get to pay to play. I have been flagged as an abusive Raptor owner, who makes all sorts of modifications, which seem to break the truck apart. The kit is really fantastic, highly recommended.
