24' Cactus Gray Ranger Raptor
Hi everyone! I bought my 24' Ranger Raptor used and the previous owner made some mods to it, one being 20" wheels which I already took off thankfully, as well as some RPG perch collars. I am pretty set on changing the collars to a strut spacer, but I am not convinced that its worth it to spend 4x the amount of money on at the end of the day a puck. I found very limited information on the rough country strut spacers but they seem like they would do the trick for a much cheaper solution. Anyone installed these and have any feedback on them?

I am also looking for install instructions and I am having a tough time finding a video or written instructions with pictures. Only thing I found was the GOAT offroad install pamphlet but theres no pictures but the torque specs are nice to have.

Rough Country has the installation instructions on the product page. I don't see how these would perform any differently than the 2" GOAT spacers.

I'm leaning toward the Rock Krawler 1.5" spacers. I need more front-end ground clearance but would like to retain some of the factory rake for when I load the bed down.

I'm looking to install a spacer lift also. It would be nice if RC made a 1" rear as well. I'm having trouble trying to justify $500+ for a set of these from across the pond.

Out of Nevada. He has the correct size to actual lift ratios for the Ranger Raptor as well.

I have the Fordrangerlifts 2/1 on my RR. Quality lift made in USA and shipping is fast and cheap.

Nice looking truck! I appreciate the feedback and I'm definitely going this route. Patiently waiting for my wheels to be me made, which will be a couple months.
