Default 08 Raptor 700 Build

I'd say its a build. I plan to add more but not for a while since shit is expensive. Enjoy.

First day I brought it home


First ride


New swing arm skid plate(a half burried toilet broke the stock one. HAHA)

Stock vs aftermarket


All was good then too much speed + too much rear brake + a mountain=


New shocks

New A arms

New tie rods(stock vs aftermarket)

End result

I also added a new engine skid plate, A arm skid plates...

and a new case guard


After all of that I waited a bit before I did anything else for a while because it cost me a good $1000 to 1200 to get it back on the road.

Then I installed HID lights(35 watt 6000K)





New exhaust tip
Stock

New


and just last weekend new tires(Maxxis Razr 2)




Future plans include FCI intake, Barker dual exhaust, PC5 with auto tune fuel controller, Trailtech computer, Trailtech bars, CCP steering stabilizer, Elka rear shock, nerf bars, GPS mount and possible +2 A arms and rear axle. I'm saving for a new truck so it wont be for a while.
