    Performance Accessories. It's the standard F150 kit. The installer will need to drill new holes in the skid plate to reattach it after the body is lifted.

    Do you have a link with more info?

    Well since you said I would have to make the brackets, I guess that leaves the kit.

    Looks great and I agree with the reasoning............With the right attention to detail and even some bigger "Grade 8" hardware its a good mod!

    I would think moving that much weight that far away from the place it was intended to be will have a pretty big effect on the suspension too...It is made lower for a reason. I don't think this is the truck that thoe kind of changes would help...

    This is the truck that benefits the most from a body lift. The truck would benefit from running the same size tires class 8 and TTs run, which is 37" and bigger. But there is no way to fit those without changing the suspension in a way that either costs a lot of money, or reduces the wheel travel. Either way begs the question, what did you buy a Raptor for? So for a little bit of money, you can clear the bigger tires without changing the suspension at all. You are only moving about 20% of the vehicle's weight. The other 80% (frame, drivetrain, etc) stay put.
