I've changed my mind about the raptor bumper because it doesn't mount flush on the sides unless you run fender flares..I really just need a black OEM bumper like the one you took off!
Hey I know it’s a long shot after all this time but I see that the raptor headlight trim did not fit perfectly is it something that I dyi and fit the rest or do I have to go the same route as you and cut it and have it cut like that please hope you can help
Only added spacers after I did the full ADV fender conversion, at the point the truck was in this vid I had no rub. Went on to run 37’s with eibach springs in the latest version, check that vid out.
Thanks for video I want to do same conversation with aftermarket parts and stock suspension with 2.5 leveling kits. Help me please Do I need to buy extra spacers for normal poke? 17x8,5 (315/70/r17) rims with 0 offset on stock suspension. Thanks
This all depends on the features your donor truck has from factory, obviously can’t add features the truck is not installed with. I ended up swapping the seat harness with my factory harness so there was no issue.
Edmon Jiddou I have a 1.5” leveling kit. It has about a 1”-.5” rake. Will raptor wheels rub on my suspension in your opinion? Other than that, my F-150 is stock.
@@EdmonJiddou oh damn, i didn’t watch the whole thing so i thought you bought one of those aftermarket/take-off appliqués, i should’ve just bought the tailgate.. cool build though 👏🏼
@@EdmonJiddou very jealous, i wish i bought a 5.5ft bed but i did a raptor conversion on my 6.5” 2016 f150, i think i got it as close i can get to a raptor but you def got closer. My next step is to get the oem grille with that under lip. You can check out my conversion on Instagram @dia8etic
Hey man I'm really interested to know. For the front end, if you have every OEM raptor part, that's the headlights, front bumper, hood, and fenders. Can you just bolt it all up together?
How did you find a f150 for that cheap with no body damage? I mean i know it’s probably salvage because it was at Copart auction, but are deals like this common?
It’s actually a clean title truck, the airbags deploying usually sends vehicles to auction. Deals like this were easy to come by before corona, now used car prices are through the roof unfortunately.
@@EdmonJiddou wow that’s awesome that it’s clean title. It didn’t look like it had any structural damage either. Hopefully prices will come down soon. Great job on the build, by the way!
Yes both bumpers fit fine, (Raptor take offs) the skid plate needed a couple holes enlarged because of the frame on f150’s having a mounting hole an inch back.
Sorry man, been a crazy month, suspension is done, front fenders are done and working on bedsides now. All videos are shot, just need to edit! That will be up soon! Stay tuned.
@@EdmonJiddou Glad you got back! I've been literally planning to do the exact same thing and now that I've started working again I was hoping I would hav a plan. Keep up the updates and let us know if you have an instagram!
@@EdmonJiddou i just got the same truck this weekend and am looking to do a front raptor conversion. Did the stock oem raptor bumper fit on this truck mines a 2016 and has the same stock bumper you had before. Does the raptor bumper fit on these ?
@@kingsam9123 so it will bolt up yes, but will stick out 3 inches on either side past your fenders, and will not follow the grill shape since raptor grills have a different profile. I would hold off on installing the bumper until you have the rest of the front end parts.
Hey bro what were the parts and where could I find them for the front end. Ive been looking everywhere to find headlight trims to convert my 2016 f150 to the raptor style front end you did.
Thanks man! This is an old video, check the latest with the new body panels and wheels. To answer your question, everything is OEM Raptor except the fenders I went with ADV fiberglass.
Edmon Jiddou give me a heads up when you come across some good parts. I can use them for my build. I just started a channel. Im going to be building a F150 also. Its called @CarbonF150 check it out when you can.🙏🏼 Thanks!
Sick but that parts breakdown seems low to me. Unless you’ve got access to cheap parts, I see no way to find a raptor grille or bumper for less than $2000. Headlights and seats are the only ones that seem right based on what I’ve seen
The raptor swap community has grown and with this the prices for take off parts has gone up, but you can still find very cheap take offs if you check your local online marketplace.
Looks good, and you did a great job doing it. Your heading announcement is incorrect however. Only the Raptors between 2010 to 2014 are SVT. The 2017 through 2022 are Ford Performance. Your FRaptor (fake Raptor) would certainly fool the general population though. Kudos for the attention to details. I have the 2010 Raptor SVT 6.2 V8, and for the fact that I am the 3rd owner, and where it originally came from, it is in excellent condition for the price, considering that it came from a Ford dealership as a trade in.
nice! I'm slowly making mine. I just got my suspension, next will be bumpers
I've changed my mind about the raptor bumper because it doesn't mount flush on the sides unless you run fender flares..I really just need a black OEM bumper like the one you took off!
Where did you get your front bumper and the rear bumper inserts?
Going to be following your build i plan on doing the same to a 5.0 i really wish they made raptor body kits for the supercab but the bed is 6.5
Thanks Isaac! I am close to finishing the suspension, video soon! And fiber works makes a 6.5 foot raptor bedside.
Sooo you have the single cab ?
@@Tacomas_shop had a supercab 2 years ago i have a 21 crew cab now with 5.0
Hey I know it’s a long shot after all this time but I see that the raptor headlight trim did not fit perfectly is it something that I dyi and fit the rest or do I have to go the same route as you and cut it and have it cut like that please hope you can help
Hey, that was temporary, I ended up going with aftermarket fiberglass fenders and bedsides. Check out my latest build videos.
Did you have spacers on those raptor wheels to mount flush with the fender flares? If so did it not rub with just the level?
Only added spacers after I did the full ADV fender conversion, at the point the truck was in this vid I had no rub.
Went on to run 37’s with eibach springs in the latest version, check that vid out.
Where u got the fender flares
Love the build! To put the raptor style tires/rims did you have to level it?
Just realized what fender flares did you go with and how much did they run you?
This was the old setup, they were just some eBay flares. The new setup is raptor fiberglass from ADV.
Do you remember what brand those fender flares were? I bought a set similar but the fitment was awful.
Yo nice build your video popped up quick question by any chance will oem raptor fenders work with oem hood 2015 f150
Thanks for video
I want to do same conversation with aftermarket parts and stock suspension with 2.5 leveling kits.
Help me please
Do I need to buy extra spacers for normal poke?
17x8,5 (315/70/r17) rims with 0 offset on stock suspension.
Thanks
Are the shocks from a 1st gen. I can only find the 2nd gen shocks with live valve
2017-2018 gen2 shocks are 3.0’s without live valve, that’s what these are from.
Looks great
Thank you! Suspension video is getting put together now.
Where can we buy all that stuff?
Where did you get Raptor Tailgate from?
Bought mine from eBay, but check your local fb marketplace.
What did the suspension swap cost you?
UCM in the building 💪💪
Thanks joe! We’ll keep pushing 👊🏼
When you replace the original seats with the raptor seats do the features still work? Like heated and cooled seats?
This all depends on the features your donor truck has from factory, obviously can’t add features the truck is not installed with. I ended up swapping the seat harness with my factory harness so there was no issue.
@@EdmonJiddou so as long as you already have heated and cooled seats those features will still work when you put the raptor seats in
Can This Also be done with a 2018 single cab f150 ?
Yes of course, join “raptor swapped f150” on fb it’s a group with lots of info.
@@EdmonJiddou thank you
I got a question where did u get the seats and the steering wheel they looks OEM SO NICE
Got 2 sets of seats for 2k, flipped the spare pair for a profit. Facebook marketplace and eBay, just gotta search everyday.
Any problems with firmament? Where you able to retain functionality?
Nice video bro !
Thank you! Suspension and fiberglass next!
Edmon Jiddou ufff I wanna see that 🤟🏻
Does the original hood fit so the overlap does not exist or does the OEM raptor parts on the front interfere with the original hood?
My truck at this stage did not have Raptor hood or fenders, just flares and grille, check the latest videos for updated body work.
What size lift is that
Stock for raptor suspension, check the latest vids for updates.
hey, can you tell all the components of stage 2 please.
thank you
Check out my latest videos, it’s painted with new suspension and body panels.
AWESOME... what did you end up doing with your other f150 raptor clone?
Sold it last year, frame was rusting and so were the cab corners, this platform is MUCH nicer and much better starting point.
Edmon Jiddou Love the channel! Keep up the good work
Drxgnogg thanks man! Fiberglass and full suspension in next video. 🙏🏼👍🏼
Part 2 is now live, thanks for the support!
is this bumper considered black or gray?..i can't tell for sure..it looks black..i'm interested in doing something similar to my black F-150
It’s a metallic grey i would say…
@@EdmonJiddou thank you for the help,I appreciate it
No lift yet? Do the tires rub? Great looking build!
Just installed the raptor suspension, video on that and glass coming up! Thanks!
Edmon Jiddou I have a 1.5” leveling kit. It has about a 1”-.5” rake. Will raptor wheels rub on my suspension in your opinion? Other than that, my F-150 is stock.
PrinceOfPunk13 yes, 35’s will rub on the inside of the fender, a lot...
How’d you get appliqué on? I’ve resorted to caulk and screws 😬
It’s a full raptor tailgate, the appliqué attaches with push clips and 2 screws.
@@EdmonJiddou oh damn, i didn’t watch the whole thing so i thought you bought one of those aftermarket/take-off appliqués, i should’ve just bought the tailgate.. cool build though 👏🏼
@@NoonMight thanks man! Watch the rest of the build, it’s raptor swapped with new panels and painted.

Hey man I'm really interested to know. For the front end, if you have every OEM raptor part, that's the headlights, front bumper, hood, and fenders. Can you just bolt it all up together?
Yes, they will all bolt up to a F150. But you need everything. Grille, grill surrounds, fenders, hood, bumper.
Check out the rest of the build series I break down prices for the complete build out.
@@EdmonJiddou ok awesome i was thinking you needed to do everything oem for it to work, makes sense. Thanks man!
@@benclark9455 well fenders can be aftermarket, that’s actually what I did. I went with wider ADV fenders for a more aggressive look over stock.
Did you install Raptor Gen 1 or Gen 2 suspension parts? I want the uppers/lower control arms etc...
All gen 2 take offs, gen 1 works as well.
@@EdmonJiddou what shocks did you install?
@@A619D gen2 blues
@@A619D watch the rest of the videos, I did a full video on suspension and body panels. The truck is way different than it is in this video
What leveling kit did you have before installing the Ford Raptor suspension kit?
I forget, it was some kind of 2” eBay shock spacer.
Thanks man! You sure saved a lot of money buying that truck and turning it into a beast!
@@LuisHernandez-fy7kt thank you! I’m happy with it, paint will help the look tremendously. 👍🏼

Was that raptor bumper take off? Did it fit normally on your xlt?
Yes both bumpers fit fine, (Raptor take offs) the skid plate needed a couple holes enlarged because of the frame on f150’s having a mounting hole an inch back.
Do you know if i would be able to do this conversion with a 2010 f150? Or f250?
Yes, plenty of good info on the raptors swap pages on fb, you can do this swap on any model 04+
@@EdmonJiddou do you know if having a f250 will make a difference on the build?
I’ll be honest, I’m not sure how the 250 front end is set up. I have seen it done, but not sure what all goes into it.
what ever happened to suspension being next week???

Was Is it a lariat or XLT??
On the paperwork it’s listed as a LARIAT XLT so not sure on how Ford model listings work.
What is the trim piece between grill and front bumper?
Thats what Im also trying to find its the only thing I am missing for my build
Nice!
Start a channel!
Edmon Jiddou if only I had enough content!
Tyler Frost I’d watch day in the life shenanigans, especially silver lake trips. Think about it 🤷🏻♂️
Where did you get the grille?
eBay, good deals can be had if you are patient.
I’m confused, you state it’s a Lariat but you clearly see it’s an XLT.. am I missing something ??
Yo man can you link the bumper
It was purchased locally off of Facebook marketplace. It’s OEM raptor so search eBay for take offs.
How tf did you get the grille that cheap. On the oem website it’s $800, and eBay the lowest is $600
Local fb marketplace, I live in Michigan and the trucks are built here so parts come up pretty frequently.
Where did you get this front bumper ?!?
It’s a takeoff bumper from a local raptor owner. They are always on eBay for your $3-400
