If you will measure all the links height and everything I need I'll put it in the calculator and post the numbers. Are you 2 or 4 door? I'm not sure if the link attaching points are the same. I'd have made them longer on the four, but that is not economical.

Good healthy skepticism here on this system. If you want a long, deep dive on the amount of work Ford put in to the Braptor (and I'm sure similarly on non Raptor Broncos) to give them a fantastic ability both on AND off road give this a read (it's an oldie but a goodie):

I'm absolutely not saying people can't best Ford OEM via upgrades, happens all the time, but that said, such major mods are not without downsides and ARE NOT engineered nor tested at the level of the OEM.
That's great for a stock suspension, but the people looking at this mod are already running longer than stock coilovers.

The Bronco suspension is great, and I appreciate the work Ford obviously put in to it to make it a fun driving machine both on and off road. If I had bought a Ford Performance trim like your Raptor, I would want to leave it stock, too.
Frankly, the Bronco Raptor is not how I imagined the ultimate Bronco. I think 74Weld hit my vision nearly dead on and will spend the Raptor price difference going in that direction.

I decided on a Ranger Raptor for a daily/backup, because you're always tinkering on a modded car. That suspension (and tire size) will stay stock and the only mods I will consider are for more power if I feel it could use it.

I really like what I've seen and know of the RR. I'm reasonably sure it'll be faster than the BR as it will have a better power to weight ratio. Are these on US streets yet ? How long until you get yours? OT.... sorry...

2024 Rangers just started shipping last week. RR’s hopefully this week. I don’t have a vin yet but my dealer said I was their only order. Hoping I’ll get a build in May, but it’s Ford. Could be next year… lol

@EvanPeterson from Adventures of Rogers & Henderson got his in today as well. Looks pretty impressive. Can’t wait to get mine on.

Definitely more and more of these getting out there... At least the 4 link rear kit.

I'm also curious if anyone has their complete kit, interested in how people feel about the shocks.
