I think Jarrett is trying not to get into a pissing match like a couple of the other vendors. Very commendable, and speaks highly of him and this company. (granted like others have mentioned spelling counts.. Tisk. Tisk)
In my opinion, they have done their research on this kit. For the price point, and ease of install it is very comparable to the others. I find no issues with the install process (after watching the videos), or the materials used.
At the end of the day it comes down to how much are you willing to spend, and how hard you are going to push your truck. If your truck is a street queen, then stock bumpstops are more than enough. If you go on some of these balls to the wall runs, you might need one of these kits from the vendors. If your a SoCal crazy that jumps your truck every chance you get or prerun baja, Greg Foutz can hook you up. Its your truck and your money.

GJMcManus first sentence is exactly why we won’t respond publicly to certain questions. It usually turns out ugly and just hurts everyone involved in the long run. We feel our customer’s feedback plus all the information we have put out there should answer most people’s questions of why Raptor Performance Group vs. ACME. However, I will always answer any questions that could start a fire with a private message. I know this doesn’t always make for great forum reading, but it’s a path we will never go down.
As far as the spelling issues, the good news is my partner who the engineer is creating all these great products is not the one posting on here. I am, and I admit i'm a terrible speller. It’s plagued me my whole life all the way through college and probably will never change. Sometimes I just type too fast and never catch the little stuff. Either way, the brains behind the operation doesn’t suffer from this issue so it’s all good. Hence, why I’m selling performance truck parts and not teaching English classes.

GJMcManus pretty much nailed it on the head except for one thing, even street queens want some bling...And the leafs do make the truck feel much better on the street.

Thanks,
Jarrett

Yeah, yeah, that's what I figured. You guys are doing a great job, keep it up!

Sorry, you are correct. The "stock" springs are the weakest part of the Raptor. In my opinion. The stock lift blocks aggravate the flimsy leaf spring pack. Causing more unwanted axle wrap, and looseness in the rearend. The skittish feeling going over whoops over 40 mph. The addition of a quality leaf pack in the rear of the Raptor will balance out the vehicle. And allow both the front and rear suspension to work as designed.

I should have ordered the National leafs with my bump stops, idiot! Looks like they will be the first addition in January.
