I understand that this is a brand new era of wheelin' for Ford, but what're the most popular aftermarket items at the time? I mean it has one beefy engine, a sick looking exhaust system from what I've seen, some nice tires, and Rims, as well as a superb interior... What's there left to replace?
My personal issue is to add fog lights. Checking on the Raptor Forumz, there are some methods of adding lights but most require a light bar of some sort. Otherwise, I have "Raptorously" happy with the way the truck is stock.
Bullbar or Prerunner tube bumper with some real lighting. Preferably something both strong and light in weight so as not to mess up the damping of the front shocks and ride height.
No go on the winch, too much weight up front.
Supercharger for some extra gratuitous power and sound.
Haven't seen the bottom of the truck, but some additional skid plates and rock sliders might be in order as well.
I definately have every intention of getting one of these when I'm home from UTI! Been doing so much research on them, these things are built to the T. All your talk of upgrades, it's tough finding something to put on them, turbo/supercharging it is great... otherwise look at the link, it's the SVT Raptor website and their videos explain almost everything!
Do you have an install written up and / or some pics post install? Which size did you select front and rear?
I bought their "C" size, the largest ones. All you do is place them where the top outside edge blends smoothly with the fender flares and the top edge of the first vent butts up against the bottom of the flare and level it out.
I had to remove the rear tires.
By the way, those suckers (the tires/wheels) are freakin' HEAVY!
You can see them installed on the raptorforumz, quite a few folks are putting them on. I didn't take any because they look just like everyone else who's installed 'em.
I doubt it... From what I've heard the springs they already use are top of the line, your pretty pennies...
True about the suspension, but get a leveling kit, there are pics here to show what it looks like side by side with and with out, http://www.truxxx.com/product/ford

Hadn't even thought of any of that! Is there any room under the hood for a turbokit or supercharger?
