here, I will try and list out the changes I know:

"muscular buldging" to give it an "all business" look.

Beveled edged in body work to help aid in the extra width.

Ok, other then body (thats far from all, but yall can see those differences)


New width = 73.6" (vs, regular F150 of 67.2")

Supercab with 5 1/2 foot box. Chasis length stretched an extra 15mm.

three amber LED lights built into grill. Fed standard due to width (body over 80 inches)

Raptor is within mm of being able to fit through the plant itself.

Slightly narrower then a dualie

colors: oxford white, Tux black, blue flame, and molten orange (optional tear graphics, still haven't seen em)

3.2 extra inches of wheelbase width per side.

New massive lower control arms. New beefy upper control arms, with a large beefy ball joints and much stronger tie rods. CV axles also get a massive upgrade, and are much bigger and many times stronger. Also able to run at far more severe angles. rear is a 34 spline 9.75". rear end has been widened and now with much thicker tubes for increased durability ! Front is now a 31 spline 8.8. They use a new type of steel for all the shock mounts, supposedly worlds stronger. Can fit a FULL SIZED 35" spare under the bed in normal location. OEM internal triple bypass shocks were developed with Fox Racing. If you don't know about a triple bypass shock, google it. Rear shocks also get "shin guards" which is extra shielding to help protect it. Rear leaf spring is a single stage design. Shocks have 2.5" body, piggyback resevoirs on the rear, 7/8 inch shaft diamtere. Shocks use 47mm pistons (standard Ford is 35mm front and 32mm rear). Front shocks have 7.1 inches of travel, rear has 10.9 inches of shaft travel. Front suspension together nets 11.1 inches of front wheel travel (stock is 8.5) and 13.1 rear (same number as stock). May not be huge amounts of travel, but this is a FACTORY vehicle, with NO mods on it yet. Also remember the triple bypass shocks.... would more then make up for the travel. Those shocks are gunna be nice. Shocks have been tested to complete the Ford's 10year/150,000 mile cycle before needing replaced.

Raptor now sits 2" taller then base model F150.

With the 5.4 and as of right now, hauling numbers are said to be about 1,000 pounds, and towing will be 6,000 but you still get the trailer sway and all the other fancy stuff (that can be turned off by clicking "off road mode" )

6.2 2 valve is coming in winter of 09 with numbers estimated around 400 hp and 400+lb-ft of torque. Crawl ratio of 45.1:1

Get a special marked steering wheel. Suppose to show you where twelve o'clock is at on the wheel. Used in baja style comps, when the wheel is rippin back and forth, helps let you know where your at. Also gets 4 aux switches for whatever your little heart desires.

locker works in 2 hi; 4x4hi and 4lo

electronic traction for the front.

REAL skid plates (not the splash guards found on regular F150's) Supposedly going to cover the entire under body. Real thick skid plates. Also added protection for front and rear bumpers, as well as differentials and even some engine coverage.

Hope this helps, and gives some people an idea of what this truck has to offer. I am seriously consdiering the 2010 model with the 6.2 liter. I guess we will see.
