22 Jan Big J and his challenge to Raptor Performance Group
Saturday was a great day. Β BigJ from San Jose came down to RaptorAddicts shop in the Valley to install his new RPG Stage 3 rear suspension kit. Β Jason, or BigJ as he is most commonly know is one of those rare breeds with a heart of gold and a passion for life. Β When someone on FordRaptorForum wants to do a run through the desert, BigJ is the man they look to in order to guide the way. Β He embodies everything a Raptor owner should be. He loves the dirt, has a love for his truck and an attitude that is no b.s.
We couldn’t be happier to have a person like him running RPG products. Β We know he will put them through the test and give an honest review for those who are on the fence. Β One of the main concerns Jason had was the underlying question that many Raptor owners ask themselves is why do I need a frame support? Β I don’t beat on my truck. Β I don’t jump the thing or do high speed desert pre-running so why should I spend the money for something I don’t really need? Β The best advice we can give you is read BigJ’s post onΒ FordRaptorForum.com
Big J approached us with the idea to do a write up for everyone to see. Β He wanted to get the real story to the Raptor and F-150 community about the frame bending issue. Β He proposed that he drives down and have us do a thorough inspection of his truck to deterime whether or not his frame was indeed bent. Β He made a bet with us that if it wasn’t bent he would still do the write up and claim the frame bending issue was over hyped. Β However, if his frame was bent, he would install the RPG Stage 3 kit rigth on the spot. Β This may not sound like much, but Big J is one of those people who spends thousands of miles in the dirt and has by no means been abusive to his truck. Β He doesn’t run 100mph across the desert. Β He doesn’t try to one up the truck next to him. Β He simply drives the truck as it was originally intended
