So I've read through this thread I have some questions that have been partially answered but would love clarification. I have a 2007 F150 crew cab on toyo 33's, and I'm looking to mid-travel it and plan on using Raptor take-offs. My question is what components I need in order to mid travel? (I'm in an off road club but this is my first truck and everyone in the club drives yotas and jeeps) I understand that the raptor axle has a different spline count which can be remedied by different axle shafts, but do I even need to do the axle to mid-travel? I'm planning to do light off-roading with the truck and mostly want a better ride in the desert and on trails along with a more aggressive look.
You'll need:
Longer brake lines
Raptor tie rods
Raptor UCAs
Raptor LCAs
Raptor length axles - but NOT Raptor axles, yours are 28 spline, Raptors are 31
I 'think' you can use your knuckles but you should validate that.
You should also get a set of front fenders so you don't stuff the tires into them.
All you need out back is a spring pack and longer brake line.
You will also need Raptor Coilovers if you are using Raptor Parts.
The F150 shocks will not bolt into the Raptor LCA.
I'm just throwing it out there as well, if you are interested.
We have our Prerunner kit available for the 04-08 F150 2wd and 4wd!
Boxed upper and lower arms , custom axle shafts, extended brake lines, extended tie rod ends and grade 9 hardware. This kit is paired with a King 3.0 coilover or any Raptor Coilover including the Fox OEM 2.5.
12" of wheel travel and 3" wider per side.
Here is my personal truck with this kit and the King 3.0's. ( it's up for sale as well! )
JT who does your pictures? tell them to invest in a polarizing filter It will help a lot. Also basic easy editing to get the light stand out of the picture.

Hey Scott,
We have a studio close by to use that a lot of the companies in the area use.
We have like 50 pictures of my truck and some are edited and some aren't. Haha
Those are first few that I saw and just attached it.
Looks nice, but seems like a funny/vulnerable place to mount the reservoirs, just sayin'.

I've taken the truck out plenty of times and with no issues as the Raptor and our Prerunner kit are still limited on travel ( 12" ) compared to a full Long Travel Race Kits where of course we are mounting the reservoirs in different locations for anything to hit it
After just helping a friend with his Bajakit chase kit on his 2011 Silverado a couple weeks ago I am very impressed with the kit & want to do one for my 2013 F150 heavy duty payload package (7 lug) but was wondering if the kit will work for my truck since it has the heavier springs & etc???
