Can you switch the RPG perch collar to 2.25 front and 1.5 rear so it's leveled out and still get 37" on stock rims

Looks awesome! The painted fenders really work on the blue. How do you like the trail grapplers so far? Noticeable degradation in ride quality moving to the D rated muds? Been looking to move to 38s w/collars as well and trying to decide between the trail & ridge grapplers. Like that the ridge can be had in a C rating in 38".

I have run both on multiple vehicles. In my opinion, it's hard to notice any driving difference, and I prefer the look of the trail grappler better.

I'm going to PPF, so hopefully they will do fine. Only time will tell

you will sag significantly in the rear. The rear springs are very soft on the Braptor. You won't get 1.5 in out of the 1.5 collar. Maybe half of that

I’m sure your Raptor is very nice, it looks great,but I’m pretty tired of seeing Raptors built ahead of earlier order’s with similar options. No offense.

I'm sure its tough for many. That said, the duration of the entire process is almost all down to the size of the dealer you choose to work with. The whole "Golden Ticket" thing was meaningless nonsense. I don't know the particulars but I expect there was nothing official in that program about allocation nor duration.

Like it or not, it is what it is.

Looks good, another example of painted flares bringing it all together. However having had my Raptor a bit now the black fenders don't bother me so much.

Those front tow hooks are rad, hot damn they are expensive though, would make me nervous they would disappear .

Agreed, they actually make a cylinder lock for the hooks. They are $50

I have a set of Gear America shackles that have locks.

I got the same set per your recommendation. Just nice to not have to remove a shackle to put a loop type strap on.

It sets a little less than 80 inches.

How much less? I am thinking using collars and 37’s but have to be under 6’9”
