My fingers are crossed that becomes a reality! Broncos are very popular in that scene too
New Ford Ranger Raptor!

Would love to build a Bronco for offroading.
You know what's done to it?

Raptor is just an option box.
No different then “max tow”.
It’s not a specific model, too many forget that.

@blk02edge what is your opinion on kings vs fox shocks?
Hopefully this makes it to the US with the 9" style rear end!
At 67.3" track width, presumably on 33's, Ranger Raptor is 1.5" wider than the ZR2, should get slightly more wheel travel. Based on the Aussie Ranger specs, Ranger Raptor would be 6" wider, 3" over each side....should be good for 12+" of front wheel travel.
Lighter truck, swapped with bigger tires and bigger shocks....wouldn't be surprised if it could keep up with the F-150 in the whoops with less power.
ZR2 Dimensions: 2018 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2

Sounds like the Ranger Raptor will come with 2.5 internal bypassed Fox Shocks, similar to the first gen Raptor.
Lol at people using marketing material to convince others Raptor is a race truck. No wonder fake news works so well, people are idiots.

That one was entirely built in house by Solo motorsports, whats not done is a better question
Dont have an opinion, I own Radflo because they seem to have better corrosion resistance, I have never owned a set of Kings, id assume fox vs king is like ford vs chevy
Lol ok.
So I guess the brand is F150 now.

Haven’t heard of them yet. Im about to check that one out.
When I looking to do suspension work on my FX4 years ago. I was told by an off-road shop and many others that King was for ones who actually used their trucks and Fox was for the Mall crowd.
Where Im at we got a couple full long travel tacomas running around with cages in the back and i see them running kings and just wanted another opinion

wat? so the svt cobra is just an option package for the v6 rental mustang? Is that how that works?
Way I see it:
1.Brand: Ford
2.Vehicle: F150
3 Model/Trim (Limited, Raptor, XL, XLT, etc)
4. Options(Towing package*, Leather seats, navigation, or 800A/801A/802A for packages etc)
Ahh, definitely not just a mall crawl brand lol, in the offroad shop world you get severe bitter brand bias because everyone screws eachother over. Doesn't reflect much on the actual product. I had a shop tell me Radflo was junk, even though at the time they were the most popular shock in Dakar.
Fox-king-swayaway-icon-radlfo etc id be hard pressed to believe one dampens better than the other as long as you have a big enough shock and the correct length travel you're golden.

Taking an 02 Ranger over the new Ranger Raptor? Lol
You dunn hit yo head boy!
Yes. Even more so since it is literally the same model of car.
The ranger is a different model lineup altogether

I can see where your coming from.
But an raptor is just an f150 with different shit to me.
Like I said before fx4 goes across every line of truck. Fx2 as well.
If it sells ford will put it as a package on any line it can.
Platinum(in your example), I think, is another one that is almost available on every single thing they make. So should they limit platinum to, oh I dunno a flex?
No more king ranch’s for the super duty’s either that’s half ton only option now.
Do you see where I’m at?
Either way the R2 is gonna be a blast if it comes here and unless you need a higher tow rating probably the way most people will go. I know I would.

I had one. Bought it new in 2002.
You’ve said some crazy shit on this forum. But this takes the cake. JT disapproves and he will not let you open the box.
Lol. Noooo I take it all back.
Everything from a base(are we talking about 03-04?) mustang can be unbolted and swap in a cobra driveline.
Tell me I’m wrong
