Supercrew vs extended cab svt raptor stock suspension

[bstoner59]

The stock rear springs affect the ride quality. When I got my new truck I noticed how much better the ride was with the Deavers. I also think the swaybar can add a little more harsh feeling to the ride in the front...or maybe I'm just crazy and want an excuse to take off my swaybar

Try getting some Deaver or National springs first and see if that works.

Have you tried lowering your air pressure? I run mine at 24 rears and 28 fronts.

Sorry for my posts but, i m worry about my raptor roughness feeling

Your the only person I've heard of that isn't happy with the ride. It is still a truck and can't be compared to a luxury SUV.

Why not just put the stock tires/wheels back on there and see if the ride improves? That's what I'd do if I were you.

If you still have them, that is.

They're load range E tires, those are basically made with steel sidewalls so there's no give at all in the tire. I don't see any reason to have an E on a truck like this. I had E range tires on my one ton Cummins and swapped those to Ds even.

there is your whole problem... that is why your ride is crap... i suggest putting those on craigslist and like somedodge nutswinger have them..

Well my father has those same tires on his 2008 ford 6.4 turbo diesel, so he liked those tire a nd he wanned to get them as well on the svt raptor.
The svt raptor with sct xcal 3 efi stage 2 and corsa are given 8 mpg so he rather use his diesel truck

I totally agree. Load range E tires are for 3/4 and 1 ton trucks. That is why your dads truck rode well with them. It is much heavier than your Raptor. Try the stock tires and see if that helps. If it does, go with some different tires in a C range. The sidewall will be much softer and help soak up those little bumps. However, you are driving a truck still. My wifes Expedition is much smoother on the small cracks and such but the raptor shines on frost heaves pot holes and speed bumps!
