These are the ones I got, which are confirmed to fit the Ranger Raptor. I have not definitively confirmed they fit the non-Raptor 2024-25:Are the crash bars just the ones for the 2022 Ranger?
Just the day, dropped off in the morning and picked up an hour before close. They did the full alignment and calibration as well and test drive.How long did it take the shop to install? Just curious. Having mine installed in a week.

Thanks for the info brotherI did mine about an hour and a half per side.
It looks a little low in the rear in the picture. I'm assuming it's just my eyes playing tricks on me. As for the minor rear lift, I like the raked looked. Would that mean installing the heavy load rear springs, or just taller ones?Got mine installed too.![]()
Just the angle. Slight rake in both kits I believeIt looks a little low in the rear in the picture. I'm assuming it's just my eyes playing tricks on me. As for the minor rear lift, I like the raked looked. Would that mean installing the heavy load rear springs, or just taller ones?
Ride quality feels great IMO, on and off road. A recalibration is definitely necessary otherwise it feels very stiff and choppy. Recently jumped mine at the Raptor Rally too with no issues.Any updates on the ride quality of the RR rear springs? I do not want to lift the front at all, just restore the factory rake in my RR from a 200 pound topper. I do NOT want to lose that smooth ride over choppy roads.
Thanks,

Agree with all of this; my experiences are similar. I would echo Goldylox's statement about adding only the rear springs -- I'm not sure how much weight you're carrying with the topper and gear but adding only the rear springs is going to give you ALOT of rake, even with 200 lbs in the bed, I think.Ride quality feels great IMO, on and off road.

if you’re only looking to replace the rear just be aware they do add 1” of lift. You could maybe look for an aftermarket HD spring with the same length.
