[QUOTE="KaiserM715, post: 155019, member: 63"] Front fenders (OEM or Aftermarket) Rear fenders (OEM or Aftermarket) Front suspension (upper & lower A-arms, tie rods, CV shafts, shocks, springs) Rear suspension (springs, shocks) Gears front and rear Rear e-locker Tires (OEM or Aftermarket) Raptor specific programing (off-road mode, etc - would be extremely difficult to replicate) And all of that is if you don't care that it doesn't look exactly like a Raptor. If you want it to look exactly like one, add the following: Wheels Hood Grille Marker lights Rear Axle (to get the rear track width correct) As far as cost, depends on what you can find where. The grill by itself is about $800 new from Ford. ^^Here is your answer. They swapped the Ecoboost engine only into the Raptor.[COLOR=Silver] [SIZE=1]---------- Post added at 03:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:01 PM ----------[/SIZE] [/COLOR] That won't really work as the fenders are wider. You would have to convert the front suspension as the Raptor's A-arms are about 4" longer than stock, otherwise the wheels would be 4" inset inside the fender. [/QUOTE]
