How to Level a Ford Raptor for Free

This is the fourth video in the Cheapest Roush Raptor in the World series and today we’re going to show you how to adjust the ride height of a gen-one Raptor for free! That’s right, the stock Fox Racing Shocks on the first-generation Ford Raptor came from Ford with adjustable shocks, allowing you to adjust the ride height of the front end of the truck by up to three inches without spending any money. The caveat is your shocks have to be in decent shape to begin with.
So come along with us as we tear into Uncle Jake’s Raptor to raise the front ride height to level the truck out. It’s gonna be awesome!

SALUTE JAKE. Nice duster, great vid 👍. MY raptor just arrived 1hr ago

I bought all new and had the originals rebuilt. Now I have a backup set.

A free lift, only $700+!

I’m pretty sure there are companies that will rebuild your shocks. You can send yours in and they’ll ship you a rebuilt set

That's a great call! We looked into getting that done and you're absolutely right, but they needed like 4-6 weeks in the current climate and we needed to get the truck back on the road. On a related note, look for some badly corroded Fox Shocks on ebay soon!

[@MotorsandMischief]

We did a video on installing that... we have a lot of videos... we think its the one where we do low cost upgrades for the Raptor: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIHKqXd7m6dofMU
