There is quite a bit of information on YouTube about the Bronco Raptor suspension. I believe it will be using fox 3.5’s which won’t fit under your OBX. But you would get similar performance to your F150 with the fox 2.5 shocks or King 2.5. Suggest you also add upper control arms when you upgrade the shocks.

Would it fit on another version of the truck?

looking to get a good upgrade but also fit 37’s.

I would go with the King 2.5 set up and RPG upper control arms. With a little trimming of the wheel well liner, you can fit 37’s. It will lift the Bronco between 2-3 inches.

I don’t mind spending the extra to get to the 4” lift and upgrading shocks / springs / etc. what would be in that class?

You may be misunderstanding. the Fox 2.5 or 3.0 Hoss, 3.5 Fox, or others shock brands is not measuring lift, but the diameter of the shock. Larger diameter stays cooler and can add performance for serious off road use.

The closest lift Iv seen so far to a raptor build would be the icon stage 8 lift kit. With the electronic adjusting valving it’s the closest Iv seen to a raptor suspension. Hide your wallet though your looking at around 10k not installed and installed probably anywhere from 12-15k

What are your goals with your bronco? Lift it or crawl or race? Streets? Why do you need the biggest baddest suspension?

My bronco goals are mostly just a nice clean looking lift with a good ride quality. Most of my time will be spent on the streets. I don't think i need the biggest and baddest - just trying to overall find something that fits well for the outerbanks.

if you want that then you should look for a set of Badlands or Sasquatch coilovers. I have a badlands Sasquatch and am running 37's with no lift what so ever. Rides great and flexes good. I am going to be adding the JKS front body mount and there will be no rubbing at all.
