I Bought Another Raptor

So, I bought another SVT Raptor. This is a 2014 SVT Raptor "Special Edition Package" in Ruby Red Metallic. It's way too clean not to be my new daily driver. So what does that mean for the Terrain Raptor? The plan is to make it a pre-runner Baja truck that is still street legal. (Suspension, wheels & tires, new hydraulic steering pump, new bumpers, chase rack, lights, exhaust, possibly engine mods, etc.) Hope y'all are as excited as I am about this! Just be patient with me because Imma need some cash... Thanks for watching!

"I didn't want to modify my DD so I just got another one to modify" 😂😂🤣 I like your logic

[@IndyAutoVlogger]

Glad to see you're gonna start posting again! Hoping to scoop one of these up myself in the next few months so look forward to seeing it progress.

Looking forward to seeing the build. I love my Gen1 and have done some mods and looking do more but I like to keep the stock look for the most part... they just look so good!

I can’t wait to see This raptor build series and this channel is for sure going to get a lot more views and subscribers for making this raptor build! It’s going to be badass! I say you should get king long travel suspension with the front coil-overs and the by passes that will smooth your ride and jump pretty smoothly! You should for sure put the 2 tires in the back! Maybe put a fuel cell or just leave the tires on. Also, maybe you can roll cage it for safety and you can do some intense off road driving and jumping!

Ha very nice rigs in your garage. If I had the time and money, I would drive my SVT Raptor down to RPG OFFROAD, get those guys to finish and complete the baja pre-runner build. In 2018 we drove down and had them bolt up the rear bumper, as well as dove tail the rear panels. The rear bump stop with frame stiffener kit is a great help from bottoming out. Corey and the rest of his crew are very good to answer any questions. Have fun go Offroad

I have the Howe power steering set which replaces the pump and res and I've never had a problem with it even when hooning around, for suspension I would hit up svc offroad, best in customer service and IMHO leagues ahead of everyone else across the board. I would wait on the chase rack until you get your bed cage in since you can probably tie a chase rack directly in to the bed bypass rack. I love it and good luck!

What's wild about this is that I just rewatched the raptor video last night.

Great find can't wait for Baja transformation, Subscribed !

SVC has a great section for upgrades, including all of the suspension upgrades you talked about and lights. ADD has some nice bumpers and chase racks if you want more options as well. Corsa has a COI set-up to match their cat-back exhaust upgrade. There's probably more aftermarket COIs for the gen1 raptor than anything else. For the exhaust portion I would check out Stainless Works for long tube headers and exhaust. If you want to have it dump out the bottom and be short they have that or a side exit in front of the passenger rear tire. All of the options are on their site and it's very user friendly.

Congrats on the Raptor, I love it!

[@NotAFuckinRaptor]

Svc and RPG make mid travel kits, gives you a chance to get fabricated arms and opportunity to run bypasses up front, then you could run deaver leaf springs and a simple 3.0x16 or 18 bypass shock in the rear with bump stops. Only thing is a lot of shocks are backordered currently. Since youre in texas TMX will probably be the best people to talk to. Currently making my 04 into a prerunner

Nice truck bro ! I just bought a 2014 tuxedo black , 37k miles excellent condition, for 49k , I know it wasn’t on the low end but I love the truck ! Feel like I got lucky with the low miles :)

[@caseycharity]

So… I don’t think there ever needs to be a justification for owning more than 1 Gen 1 Raptor. 😝

[@KyleSVT]

Sick dude! Awesome truck

[@jesse2534]

Congrats! On your 2nd Gen 1 that’s badass I just upgraded my power steering to the Lee power steering pump best one out in the market especially for what you want to do

[@nicholashealy8400]

Paid out door 43k for same exact truck. Bone stock. Came with 4 year warranty or to 120k.

[@zayne3869]

happy for you

[@raptorfoxbody9611]

You should get involved with Texas Raptor Runs! Would make for some great content and give you more ideas for the build

[@Cornell1]

Sick more updates on the raptors please
