Looks really good!
Considering doing this same thing due constraint on 37 packages. Looking forward to seeing more pictures. Were you able to fit the 37” spare ok? Was your shop able to calibrate the speedometer too? Also- I read that changing the tires on the 35 Raptor could cause warranty issues. Does anyone know if that’s correct?

The 37 Spare fits fine with no modifications. The shop didn’t calibrate the Speedo, but I have forescan and was planning to do that myself, along with a few other changes. I strongly doubt ford will deny warranty claims by putting 37s on. They would have to prove the 37s caused what ever part to fail. Given these parts share 99.9% of the parts with the 37” raptor I don’t see how they would have any grounds for denial. Unless on some super rare circumstance where the 37s actually did cause a parts failure.

37's may fit for a mall cruiser but if you try to "raptor" your raptor you are going to take out your fenders unless you put in taller bumpstops...

I’m not too sure about that. Here are two examples of 37’s that are doing just fine without bump stops. Both of these were originally 35” trucks.
