Nice rig. Looks killer. Still debating whether to lower or not. They look so damn good like that.
Thank you. I love it. The Ridetech kit rides almost like stock.

Killer truck!! I'm going with the Ridetech kit on my '23. Just need to order the rear flip kit. I have the front stuff and air helpers coming next week. How do you like the sway bar? I've been debating on that. I have the Hot Pepper red.

Nice truck! I love the Ridetech kit. I recently installed the traction bars but didn’t get pictures to post. LOL
The rear sway bar is needed for how I drive. LOL

How is the sway bar ride with the flip kit?

I've been looking at the potential for both front and rear but being lowered already is stiff enough as it is.

The sway bar makes a difference. I had a different brand sway bar on my 2013 and it also made a difference.

I followed the lead of a smart person on one of the Raptor forums to make a plug and play harness for my up-fitter switches. The top part of the harness is hardwired to a ground on the truck and to the up-fitter relay/fuse box.

As he stated, this is over the top however I’m doing everything top notch on this truck.

Here is the truck side wired into the up-fitter relay/fuse box.

Beautiful truck! I love this red! Silly question: where'd you get the glove box organizer? That looks pretty handy.
