Elevate Your Ford F150 Raptor with Fabtech’s 4” Lift System for Ultimate Off-Road Domination
The Fabtech 4″ System – K2263 for the 2017-2020 Ford F150 Raptor 4WD is an expertly engineered suspension lift designed for enthusiasts looking to take their Raptor’s off-road performance to the next level. By raising the vehicle’s suspension height by 4 inches, this system allows for the installation of 37″ tall tires, while retaining the factory SVT control arms and Fox Shox, ensuring that you get enhanced ground clearance and improved off-road capability without sacrificing the vehicle’s performance.
One of the standout features of this system is its heavy-duty ductile iron steering knuckles. These knuckles are specifically designed to handle the additional load and steering challenges that come with running oversized 37″ tires. Where stock steering knuckles may struggle with brake and steering performance, Fabtech’s knuckles ensure smooth and reliable operation, maintaining the Raptor’s electronic stability control (ESC) and traction control for safe, consistent handling.
In addition to the steering enhancements, the SVT control arms are relocated using 1/4″ thick steel crossmembers. This design retains the vehicle’s original travel capabilities, crucial for off-road performance. Meanwhile, the factory Fox Shox are maintained with durable front and rear shock extensions, ensuring that the Raptor’s renowned suspension performance remains intact, even with the increased height.
To keep the front CV angles within optimal ranges, the front differential is relocated and protected by a 1/4″ thick steel skid plate. This skid plate ensures the differential remains safe from debris and rocks during aggressive off-road use, further enhancing the vehicle’s durability.
This Fabtech system also includes a rear block and U-bolt kit to ensure the rear suspension matches the lift height. Paired with the right set of wheels and tires, such as 37/12.50R18 on 18×9 wheels with 5″ backspacing, this system transforms your Ford F150 Raptor into an off-road beast while preserving the handling and control you’ve come to expect.
