What did u do to your raptor today?

Took off the front sway bar end links to isolate a rattle. Truck handles bumps way better now so I’ll see what it does on the highway

My last prerunner had 3.5 over control arms, a 2.5 coilover & bypass, and no swaybar. It felt plush, in control, and was Big Fun on dirt roads. A Raptor without a swaybar should be the same.

Scored a set of these Fox 3.0s. Easy weekend install, rides smooth and stable on road, cant wait to take them off road. Previous owner had a set of "radflow" 2.5 shocks upfront and blown rear stock shocks, I'm not familiar with that brand but it rode like trash to me. I also swapped out the IWEs while I was in there. Deavers, bump stops, brakes and wheel hubs on order.

Are the 3.0's a straight bolt up or is there mods?

She's a southern girl for sure!

@CleverGirl_ I would think you might only notice on a bumpy turn. EX: An interstate on ramp high speed sweeping turn. The bumps on the outside of the turn will set the roll hard. Other than that I see no problems. The big truck been missing stab links/sway links. for a long time. This is the only time I notice. some day when I am not lazy I will fix it. LOL but been like that for at least a 150k of 350k

Took it out of winter storage this week for a bit and fllled up with a fresh tank of Costco's finest

Lots of side to side wave like movement on the highway but may be due to my older shocks. Rides way better regardless.

I removed my sway bar and links way back in 2015 I think. I love without. The only time I have noticed it getting floaty is at 170km/hr+ on a flat road. Offroad it's great and planted, quick abrupt maneuvers I have never had a sketch driving experience. Granted I'm no Kent Block, rest his soul.
