Looks awesome!

Did you remove the blocks in the rear?

Appreciate it, 2” level in the front, nothing touched in the rear, likely will be getting the Ford Performance (bilsteins) once I get the truck paid off which will be very very soon.

Just do the normal 6112 kit! Same stuff and cheaper!
Yeah I have been doing some research and have done a few kits myself, this time around I want to save myself the headache and time of swapping the top hats, I found a company that will install them on the 6112’s for an extra fee, which brings the price right back to the Ford Performance kit.

Such a clean build, nice work. Pretty much the visions I have for mine. Just picked up a 24 Avalanche this week and already got it tinted, OEM wheel liners, and bed cover on it. Was planning on adding the Raptor wheels to mine but found out I can’t due to having the Max Tow Package. Pretty bummed so now have to find another option. Going to be adding some bilstein 6112s or the Eibach 2.0 kit w/ some JBA UCAs. Awesome build man, love the clean look.

Appreciate it. I plan on upgrading the suspension here soon, paying off the truck this month so I will be doing some more upgrades!. Max tow definitely kills that option. Plenty of nice aftermarket options, I just love 17’s. I have been looking at the lock offroad mojave and the commando wheels, both are nice looking!

Small but significant upgrade. The steering wheel feel of the stock STX wheel is horrible. I looked at replacement wheels and then came across stitch on covers that look factory when done right. Patience is the key here but for $40 it was worth every second. Took about 2 hours total and that was with me redoing 2 sections to get it to my standards.

Best update yet…paid it off with only 3400 miles on it!. Should really be getting the upgrades going now!. I miss my Raptor at times but having a paid off truck is a much better feeling!

Awesome truck. I had a question about your experience going from a Gen 1 Raptor to a newer F150. I currently have a Gen 1, and want something newer (and slightly smaller to park), but am worried I'll miss how "special" the Raptor feels. Any comments on making the switch?

Easy answer…..don’t do it, if I could do it all over I would have kept my 2014 Raptor and never chased the latest and greatest. Miss that truck.
