04-08 F150 gen 2 raptor suspension swap
I got a 07 F150 4wd and I want to turn my truck into a prerunner and found that it's cheaper to swap the suspension out with the raptors and I was wondering for the cv axel if I could use a raptors cv axle or just buy a cv axle that is similar to the raptors anyone know?

Little late to the party, but no, the CVs are different entirely. The raptors simply push into the diff housing whereas the 04-08 have the traditional 6 bolt to the diff housing flanges. Best bet is to research longer axle shafts and build them/have a shop make them so they'll fit. I've been researching how to raptor swap my 05 for nearly 2 years now but funds are tight and I'm still trying to summon the willpower to make it happen 😂.
You've probably seen the "Raptor Swapped F-150s" Facebook group, they have a TON of really good info on making it happen. Plus you'll get responses almost instantly and not 3 months later.
