Swarfworks Shock Guard

[Nick9323]

Hey everyone, wanted to share my experience here with Paul at @Swarfworks and their shock guard for my 2020 Gen 2 with stock suspension. I got a set of 2, passenger and driver side for the rear lower shock mounts and the passenger side looks great (the photo with all the clearance to the shock protector) but after sitting the truck back down on the driveway, the driver side one made a lot of contact. It pushed on both the oem protector and the bolt head that holds it in place. So I pulled it off, contacted Paul, and and he informed me they are going to make a drivers side specific one to help with the roost and will send me that one, for free, as a replacement and to keep the original as a spare. He also immediately updated his site to match this new info. Very happy with the way this went and it goes to show that if you are willing to reach out to vendors, they often take care of you. I'll update with pics of the new part once it arrives. Links to the two parts: https://swarfworks.com/17-raptor-rock-shock-guard/

Glad they are taking care of it. Looks like the revised driver side doesn't have the spine running down the middle. I liked that design better than the revised driver side which looks like a beefier version 1 they used to have.

I agree. I actually just shot him an email back with that comment, seeing if that's doable.

Did you reuse the OEM bolt and if so, I'm assuming they were long enough???
