The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor pickup truck is just about the closest thing to a desert off-road race truck you can buy from a standard automotive manufacturer’s dealership today. To be sure, there are plenty of other trucks that may have come close, such as the Ram Runner (a modified Ram 1500 concept shown by Ram Trucks a couple years ago) and the Reaper (a Chevy 1500 worked over by Lingenfelter and Southern Comfort Automotive, and available through both). However, neither of these two have been met with the rabid enthusiasm that has propelled sales of the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor.

The automotive performance aftermarket industry has also gone bonkers over the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, with nearly uncountable numbers of companies offering parts and accessories ranging from superchargers to bumpers for the truck. One of those company’s is ICON Vehicle Dynamics, a performance suspension and shock absorber builder that has delved into almost every vehicle, be it car or truck, and has produced yet another kick-ass suspension kit for the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor with the introduction of the RXT Rear Suspension System.

The RXT Rear Suspension System fits 2010 to 2014 Raptors and includes an all-new RXT 3.0 Rear Bypass shock and an RXT Multi-Rate Leaf Spring that works together with the ICON Raptor Rear Bumpstop Kit. Together, the system offers 15-inches of rear wheel travel, with a 20-percent increase in up-travel, a 30-percent increase in down-travel, and the ability to adjust the leaf spring rate to account for different vehicle setups.
