2017-2026 Gen 2 & Gen 3 Raptor Lower Control Arm Pocket Replacement Kit - Standard

• (1) Right front frame pocket assembly
• (1) Left front frame pocket assembly
• (1) Pair of longer arm mount bolts
• (1) Install alignment plate

Pockets are shipped raw.

The lower control arm pockets are the frame brackets that hold the front of the suspension to the truck. Every hard hit the front wheels take is fed through them, which makes them one of the most stressed suspension points on the truck.

The risk is highest when the edge of the pocket is exposed, especially on trucks with aftermarket bumpers. An exposed edge is more prone to rolling or ripping off on impact, which can lead to structural damage or complete failure.

This kit replaces the factory pockets with reinforced 4130 chromoly assemblies, adding strength and durability at the lower control arm mounting points.

• 4130 chromoly
• Includes a .250" thick lower ring support plate
• MIG welded
• Right and left pockets to weld into the frame
• Tool plate for proper alignment during installation
• Two longer lower arm mount bolts
