By no means long travel? hmmm

Any other production trucks with a foot of travel at each end? How much does the stock F150 have up front? 8" ? Im no math wizard but 11 or 12" > 8 all day!

I think he was just trying to say it doesn't compare to true aftermarket LT setups.

Ya not really long travel but close. The 11-12 inch's of travel is nice for that truck cause the suspension is tuned for the travel and its a plus that it comes with a warranty. But im sure the warranty doesnt cover hucking it off a jump and your suspesion breaks in half.

To the original poster, if you already have a truck just invest the money into buying after market long travel for it. It will pull more travel and handle the ruff stuff way better. Believe me, i know. The Raptor is a killer truck but you can build your truck for less then it would be to buy the Raptor.

Also for the record, i wouldnt install the rize LT for the new F150's if they paid me. Horrible kit. Also the Raptor suspension wouldnt fit on anything other then a 09-10 F150's.

Long travel doesn't mean 3 inches more than stock. Whatever, you have a point it is better than any other truck, stock.
