I have read through the forums...it seems like most people here recommend either icon or rpg front collar. All of the trucks I have had in the past...I usually do 2 inches in the front and one inch on the rear. Are there any out for the raptor that would be recommended? I really want to maintain factory ride etc. Thanks for the input!!

They best way to lift the rear an inch and have a better than factory ride is with Deaver +3 springs. They make a noticeable difference in ride and handling.

Does that work in combination with the front icon collar? Thanks for your input!

Yes it does, my buddy just installed the RPG collar and Deavers before Raptoberfest and it handled great. He said street manners are much better too. I have Deaver +3's and am at midperch up front on my Gen1 and on and offroad manners are much better too.

I have the ICON setup with the max 2.25 setting, and I love it. I went with the 1.5" when I first got the kit, but changed to 2.25. It looks better and handles the same.

I have RPG 1.5 in front and went with a simple add-a-leaf in the rear to raise the rear 2 inches. See my thread in the suspension sub-forum.

Go with 2.25. You won't be disappointed.
