oh and im guessing your a badass with 15 grand sitting around to completely build on right. damn my apologizes I didn't know I was talking to Robby gordon. goes to show there's gotta be one ******* in the crowd. maybe I want my truck to look sick while I have to save the money to build the suspension since im like everyone else and don't have what you have to just got buy it all at once. so next time you decide to be a dick do us all a favorite and just keep it to yourself

 

Cool it. Way to introduce yourself on the forum. Good luck with your build.

 

thanks

 

I was giving you **** for bumping an old thread with no new comments in the last two years; searching for answers is good, but bumping old **** to the top and interfering with the current stuff is kind of irritating. Anyway, I live in the middle of the desert, and offroad on a daily basis. I can tell you that these guys running around with their truck lifted 4" up front are only doing it for looks, because it certainly isn't helping in the desert and the pro guys sit pretty much level, so I don't know where that came from anyway. But if you're not looking to build a full-on prerunner (with all the $$$ in long-travel suspension and such) give the Ford Raptor a look. No, I am not suggesting that you buy a $41+k truck for your purposes, just use it as a basic blueprint for your build. That truck, stone stock, works better out here than any other vehicle other than maybe a Rubicon. Just my $.02.

And FYI, I'm not a dick; most of us on here are going to give you a lot of help, but also are going to give some **** from time to time along with our own opinions. Gotta have thick skin

 

being a die hard gm fan im sad to say it but id love to have a raptor. living in Tucson and seeing border patrols version of them makes me drool everytime. where can I get the blue prints for there suspension. I've looked everywhere and all that pops up is dealerships

 

I'm in the same boat as you there bro, I am very impressed by the Raptor. When I was about to buy a new truck, I was interested in a Chevy or GMC but was very interested in the Raptor 6.2 Crew and the Power Wagon. You can see in my sig above what I ended up going with, but I still think the Raptor is a great rig for the price. I have access to several Raptors but I have never seen blueprints; I am out of town on business right now but let me know in a month or so if you can't find anything and I'll try to get you some decent photos.
