First place - congrats on the Dakar finish - that is one hell of an accomplishment. Also, very nice pictures of the Raptor. I was in KING yesterday talking to Elliot and they are pretty proud of their Raptor shocks. Nice job to all...

It looks like an extension piece and stock bump. The truck has Deavers and no lift block. There was a few guys saying that a common jeep bumpstop extender fits perfect in our trucks. Use that and you don't need to fab a strike pad on the axle when taking the lift block out.

Correct, It's not a King part, just something they made at the Fab School.

The way the bumper follows the curve on the front end is very nice. Maybe you need to enroll in the Fab School and build your own.
