| Parts availability for the Ford F150 Raptor is going to | | | | ground up situation for there parts as well. I'm sure |
| be like an explosion. As soon as this SVT truck hits | | | | they will attack this with all they have once the truck |
| the streets there is going to be everybody and his | | | | is available. There is one company that is in the |
| brother looking for parts. I have been on the phone | | | | position to supply a performance parts upgrade that |
| looking for parts manufacturing company's that is or | | | | will add approx. 150 hp to the Raptor right out of the |
| is going to be manufacturing even the tiniest of | | | | box and we will be selling that Raptor system at |
| Raptor parts. There are a few areas the Raptor that | | | | about the same time the truck will be available. |
| can be upgraded right off the bat. Parts like tires, | | | | Raptor suspension is another area that has limited |
| wheels and brakes can be upgraded with parts | | | | upgrades. As of yet there are no companies with lift |
| available in the currant after market parts that should | | | | kits on the drawing board reason being Ford has |
| fit the Raptor now. We can add parts such as larger | | | | major changes to the suspension and they are |
| calipers, better wheels with bead locks, we can add | | | | waiting to get there hands on the new Raptor, |
| bed covers, BAK is the supplying vendor for bed | | | | Shocks are an area hard pressed to see up grades, |
| covers for the factory F150's have bed covers that | | | | talking to Ross the lead engineer at FOX racing there |
| will fit. there are lots of parts that can be used to | | | | are no upgrades that are being looked at because |
| personalize your new F150 Raptor. Though there not | | | | Ross designed the system that ran in the BAJA and |
| allot of parts manufactures working on performance | | | | the Raptor already has the best, maybe later we will |
| parts up grades for the Raptor due to the cost of | | | | see something. He did say that FOX has a new |
| R&D and the decline in truck sales. But I would | | | | Raptor Style shock upgrade for the standard F150's |
| bet you that when this Raptor hits the market there | | | | that will up grade the F150's to a Raptor style ride, |
| will be a great deal of catching up to do. | | | | we will have that soon. |
| I've talked to Rousch Performance engineers about | | | | Another area that we have looked at for upgrade is |
| this very thing, Rousch is holding back because Ford | | | | the cast lower front control arms, we have a major |
| made some major changes in the Raptor engine | | | | player in upscale buggy parts manufacturing that says |
| management and there currant performance parts | | | | they can produce billet lower control arms, we will |
| and goodies will not work for the Raptor so its a | | | | continue to work on that and keep you advised. |
