- 2018 Raptor sold 2021 Tremor
Well I finally had the time to install the new shocks. It brought the front end up about 2“. The install was slightly difficult due to the remote reservoir brackets needing to be modified and havin to drop the bash plate down. Really had to disassemble the front suspension to make enough room to remove the stock shocks. The new ones slipped in rather easily with the exception of routing the reservoir in to place. A two man job for sure for the front end.
Now for the ride. It’s freaking amazing. I have a big dip in the road near me house and that’s the first place I went. Usually have to stay around 10 mph to go through it. I hit it at 25 then 30 and it was like ridding on a cloud compared to the stock units. I’ll be heading out to the desert soon to give it the real test. I think it will be close to the way my Raptor handled.
