New Shocks

[Jordan@Apollo-Optics]

There are two ways to get 37's to fit with stock shocks.

First way: Have a 2010-11 Raptor. Put it on Top Perch. Pound the shit out of the pinch/seam weld in the front fender wells and take an angle grinder if needed to certain parts for clearance. I think bstoner has his truck this way.

Second way: Any Raptor (although 2010-11 is still preferable due to lack of Torsen front diff). Mid Perch. Boatec/Glassworks front fenders. Pound the shit out of the seam/pinch weld.

Well, if you want more lift, stacking a spacer on it is definitely the wrong way to go about it. I would strongly disagree with your tire choice as well. Those tires sound like a jet airplane driving down the highway and I cringe every time I see them because, for lack of a better word, I think they're disgusting. Your preference is your preference though. You wont fit those in a 37 without major trimming. Stacking the spacers on top of your suspension "perch" adjustment will cause all kinds of issues. I'd reccomend another route.

I have the 2 inch spacer on the top of the stock shock and i see where everyone says how terrible that is. I would like to have more lift in the front just to make the stance of the truck look better. I am about to put 37 mud grapplers on the truck and would like to prevent scrubbing as well.

I have 37 Nitto Trail Grappers and have never rubber. Including off roading

yeah i think ill be fine with the 37s i clear 35s now without even being close to scrubbing. I like my mud graps no matter what anyone says. They're the meanest looking tire on the market!

If you haven't rubbed with the stock tires, you are not driving hard enough.
