[QUOTE="Badgertits, post: 1462596, member: 31322"] what I don’t get about the guys using leveling springs (forget collars when quality springs are available @ similar price point) for looks as top priority - you say “you hate the factory raked look” - I say, that’s how a truck should sit & function/performance aside, while riding slightly nose high empty (which even if its 1/4” looks awful IMHO) & seems like many Raptors end up w/ this effect- hence why I haven’t installed mine yet til I get deavers- CERTAINLY riding nose high ass sagging carrying a time 500-800 lbs in the bed or a utility trailer is a worse look than a raked stance from the factory. I would add “IMHO” - but, I’m fairly certain this would be considered fact. So unless you never tow or haul anything of any kind of substance whatsoever- I don’t get just “leveling” the truck when many come out nose high empty w/ springs & ALL sag ass & point to the sky when pulling hauling anything. Question/observation more than a criticism, the Raptor is unique amongst 1/2 tons as pretty much any other make/model can be leveled by a number of ways w/o riding nose high empty & especially not sagging when hauling, so makes a lil more sense to me since a)not getting a big trade-off aesthetically like raptor nose high in place of raked, & b) most 1/2 tons already riding lower than a stock raptor to begin with [/QUOTE]
