Staylor74 Posted December 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2020 copy that, I got the project for free just had to go get it so I figured why not build it, but on my raptors over the years I've always had good luck with elkas, but its been 8 years and 150 lbs ago lol when I was just a highschool kid. I figured that would be the route I ended up at, just figured id see if anyone has had a similar situattion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted December 29, 2020 Report Share Posted December 29, 2020 Fox Podium rear and Floats in the front. Never look back. If you opt to keep your OEM rear shock, you really don't need a revalve. I have run OEM with different springs on everything from +2 to +14 arms. What kind of budget are you looking at?

locogato11283 Posted January 6, 2021 Report Share Posted January 6, 2021 I would go Alba +2 LT arms with Fox Float Evol and Fox Podium in the rear. Excellent set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what we are getting when start this banshee build. Got to finish installing the new tires and jeep wheels on the Wrangler before we can take her in.
