3" RPG Solves the problem and the rake is only noticeable if you tell someone.

Just cut it all off. Don't be scared. Most guys (baja guys) running 37" and higher cut it all the way to the wall. LOL. Im running 38" with just eibach springs and diberti fenders. I will be able to do 40" soon as i upgrade to 3.0 foxes and minor lift.

God forbid you lift the truck because you will get hammered on this forum. LOL. This forum is for stock setups mostly. You will not get any help here for actual suspension mods.

If your good with hack saw it is easy. These trucks are easy to cut since they are all aluminum. Just grind and san down the area and make sure to paint the area with some paint to avoid rust or have your body shop weld it shut again after you cut.

Your perception of why lifted raptors get hammered on this forum is ******.

People get bashed for stuff like kfc bucket wheels, lifts, spacers, and enormous fenders on stock suspension. Superficial mods, especially ones that take away from the performance of a purpose built truck, are not well received around here.

Wow. Talk about ignorance.

:specialed:

What backspacing are you running?

Pretty sure those are Icon wheels, which would be 5" backspace or 6mm offset.
