[QUOTE="Raptor 2014, post: 1369255, member: 12350"] Re-welding the front mounts on is what a body shop would do if damaged from an accident or whatever. Not difficult at all once it's lined up. If you do get into a major front impact with a Baja style bumper your looking at a Salvage title and then a major frame straightening / repair. My truck is a Long distance, tow, go most places vehicle with compromises. Does most things but not any one thing Great other than comfort and to get me most places that it will fit into - It is 6000+ LBS 4WD and low on HP. Even with a huge chunk of change spent on changing everything in the suspension it is still heavy. It is like a modded street car you take to an open track day event - Lots of fun but can't keep up with dedicated cars - Huge difference. If I were to really Baja a truck it would be 2WD Long travel suspension, cage, Cut bed for longer travel shocks, More HP and 4500LBs max - A lot frigin light - The Raptor is just limited by weight - I love my truck but It is a compromise vehicle sold to people with too much cash on hand. Well - I'm gone get flamed for that one. [/QUOTE]
