Default Raptor conversion??

I was planning on doing a long travel kit from camburg or bajakits but I was wondering if I could just buy all the suspension parts off a raptor and do you think it would bolt right up. I mean raptors use the same exact frame just with f350 shock mounts to make it a little beefier.. Has anyone done it and would it be hard? I don't see it being much of a hassle. Would just have to get extended brake lines.. and I should be okay with the front end.. I don't know how much work I'd have to do with the rear. I could just get deavers and run the same rear the raptors got. What're your guys opinions. I know I would save a **** ton of money.

Well the raptor is mid travel setup. So if you want true long travel, raptor parts won't work.

This might help:

You're right but it would give me some travel. & i would save a lot of money. I don't need a true long travel setup as of now since I moved. But it would perform better and look better as well.
