hey guys im thinking of a long travel front suspension like the raptor for my 2006 f150 for raptor looks and extra offroad performance.

just wondering how this will perform if front wheels have a 6 inch wider track than rear wheels, mostly in deeep now but some mudding too?

probly just use extra power to get back wheels spinning their own trail as well rear end might jump back n forth to left n right into the front wheel tracks.
should be about the extent of the problems?

Might handle like a snowmobile, but I don't see any mechanical issues.

Most, if not all, trophy trucks have a wider front track. It improves stability on a turn at higher speed.

^ This....

pulling a turn at 65-70mph in the dessert requires a different set up than floggin' it through a mud pit...its hard to get the "perfect" set up, because "perfect" changes depending on conditions....i.e. most pre-runners are 2wd....an almost positive no-no while mudding....

The only thing you will notice is a more stable front end from the wider track width. it will not be an issue. I have raced desert trucks and built lt suspensions for years.
