First mods to do

Mid-perch is nice. Supercharger is awesome, but a hefty investment. As mentioned above, it's highly likely you need to rebuild your shocks. I have a 2012 and I've rebuilt mine twice. I'm at 83,000 miles.

I'd first decide if you are going to a 2017 in a year. If so, I probably wouldn't do much. After driving my buddy's 2018 Raptor, I'm sticking with my supercharged 2012, hands down.

Some of my priorities would include bumpers, lights, and a winch. But it really depends on what you are doing with it. I tend to get into sketchy situations!

Thanks for the input! My raptor is very high in mileage so I’ll definitely get the shocks rebuilt! Also because of the high miles I’m scared of doing a supercharger.

Cold Air intake would be right up there in priorities. I liked the AFE one (before I supercharged).

I'd shy away from so called "cold air kits." Mostly snake oil, and speaking of oil, the added dirt ingestion into the engine wears down rings and valves, dirtying the oil. Also,oiled filters have a tendency to be over-oiled, causing problems with the MAF sensor.

Deaver Springs would be an awesome upgrade, if your shocks need a rebuild I’d do that first. Upgrades depend on what you plan to do with your truck. If off-roading is a priority I’d do suspension mods first, then bumpers and lights.

Check the status of your shocks and rebuild or upgrade, if needed. Adjust the truck to mid perch. Add some lighting in the openings in the fog lights or light bars behind the grille. Bed covers are also a popular option and swapping out wheels on the existing tires.

If any of the above sound good, let us know and we can help get you setup!

Rebuild shocks. Mid perch. Amsoil in everything. Paper filter. Enjoy

Honestly, a tuner would be my top priority. The shit points on the truck are abysmal, literally infuriating. Get a 5 star tuner/tunes. The truck will hold its gears longer, be far more alive, and way more fun to drive. Partner that up with an intake and youll be smiles for miles!
