- Adding a winch to the Raptor made it a little sad in the front, so we try and get some height back with a leveling kit and also add some lights cause those holes need filling!

Life saver!!!🙏🏽thanks for this video
I’ve never seen anyone do that without taking the whole spring off So now maybe I will attempt to do mine
Good luck!
Same here I’ve wanted a shop to do mine but now nvm I’ll do it myself thx
Man if i could use your skills and knowledge and wallet for one week my Ford Ranger would look awesome. SOrry we only dream of Raptors here in Malaysia
great video
Great video
Good info thx
Very helpful video! Thanks for posting! Just one things... You shouldn't have cut those relays off. The upfitter wires aren't rated to provide full power for the amperage of those lights, especially all of them on one switch. If you don't blow fuses, you may not get full brightness out of the lights.
so how did you wire your lights up? Im buying a set. Thanks
How difficult is to mount the light brackets? I'm having a heck of a time with the passenger side top bolt. It seems to be too high when compared to the drivers side.
Hmm I don’t remember having any problem with it. Maybe something is bent?
Hi. Would like to know how hard to install the RPG leveling kit? Did you just take off the wheels or anything else? Went to shop they asked ~ $400 without parts. My is 2018 raptor. Thanks for sharing the video.
I also unbolted the front sway bar but I’m not sure it was necessary. The hardest part is getting the spring compressors lined up right. And then having the courage to keep cranking on them when they seem like they’re going to break :)
Zero To Awesome thanks a lot. Keep learning from your videos.
Raptor looks great! With front just little lower looks heck of a lot better than just level! How are you liking I your lights? Reviews I’ve read, people have said there to bright! LOL. That’s the whole purpose!
Thanks! So far I’m liking the lights. They light up dark country roads no problem
How do you like the lights. Mine kiss coming. I’m wondering is there way to get an amber lens cover?
So far so good. Just grab some amber vinyl. Should work
What do you think about RC fog lights, would you recommend?
No complaints so far. I give them a thumbs up!
Where did you buy that leveling collar? Looked everywhere can’t seem to find it thanks
Right about here: www.rpgoffroad.com/product/raptor-coil-spring-perch-collar-3/
Makes me wonder how much current the AUX circuit is rated for vs. the total of all those LEDs.
15 amp circuit, 9 amp draw from the lights. Haven’t burned the truck down yet
Is that 9 amp per light?
Can these be wired to run amber color while running at night with headlamps etc?Then when you want to turn them on to white fog lamps you turn on the auxiliary switch
You’d need some different lights that have amber in them but yeah, I feel like there’s a company or two that make some like that
Which kit did you get? The black series or black series with white DRL?
No drl
Why don’t you just change the spring to level out the front end? As soon as you put a lift in on your shock, you decrease it’s overall play. Truck will run different.
MOOO-AR COW THANGS
All cows from now on. Just for you
So you wired all of the positive wires to aux 1? Any issues?
Yes all wired to aux 1 and nope, no issues
Is aux 1 hot, did you have to disconnect the battery?
It’s hot when the switch is on! Disconnecting the battery is a good idea
Don't forget Aux 1-2 switch is good for 15A
Aux 3-4 switch is good for 10A &
Aux 5-6 switch is good for 5A
Hello! Perfect Raptor! Why you chose RPG leveling kit instead of Eibach springs? Thanks in advance and good luck with Raptor!
Easier to install
What brand and model of fog lights did you use?
Rough country

How are the lights? Not alot of videos on them.
So far they’re doing great. I’m sure they’re not as good as some more expensive options but they light up a dark country road and work well enough for me
@@ZeroToAwesome appreciate the reply.
My wire harness, does not have Red and Black. It has White, Blue and Black. Please help?
Its Rough Country Fog Lights FYI
Start at the lights and there should only be two wires going into each light. Those are the ones you want. Touch the ends to your battery terminals to figure out which is positive and negative. If they’re LEDs they’ll only work one way
U sure that the ground location that you use is correct?
Hasn’t set the truck on fire yet
Why did you decided to use just a collar level set up vs a new spring level kit? I think had you gone with a 2.5 inch kit, with that winch in the front it would have sat about perfect.
Still, very nice looking set up. Now go get dirty!!
Easier/cheaper. I wasn’t sure how much the front end would sag with the winch. Now we know!
Like the lights joke
weathertech already makes this.......
Levelling kits preload the spring which isn't great. It's kind of a cheat that impedes the full range of the spring and removes performance off road. You really should look into geizer or eibach spring upgrade instead. Found your channel last night and been enjoying your videos. I have a 2017 Raptor with mods. Also a 2017 GT350 that's got a lot of upgrades. Check out Keep it Dirty Offroad. That guy has great information on everything Raptor including suspension. You'll wanna do Deavers in the back and maybe bumpstop if you are gonna be getting aggressive with the Raptor (jumping or whoops at speed)
