FACTORY vs. FABRICATED
This Fabricated Coil Bucket Kit is designed specifically for the 2017–2020 Ford Raptor (Gen 2) as a complete replacement for the factory stamped-steel coil bucket assembly.
It replaces the OEM coil bucket with a fully fabricated boxed-steel design built for high-load off-road use and mid-travel suspension applications.
CAUSE OF STOCK FAILURE
On the Gen 2 Raptor, the factory stamped coil bucket and upper frame mounting area is prone to a known issue where the spring bucket begins to peel away from the side of the frame under repeated high-load off-road use.
This typically occurs due to:
- Repeated high-speed desert impacts
- Increased spring rates and larger tires
- Long-travel or mid-travel suspension setups
- Frame-side flex concentrated at the coil bucket mounting zone
Over time, the factory structure cannot adequately distribute load, leading to separation, cracking, and deformation at the frame-side mounting point.
UPGRADED SOLUTION
This kit is engineered specifically to eliminate the Gen 2 Raptor's factory coil bucket failure by completely replacing the OEM assembly with a fabricated high-strength design.
The fabricated coil bucket features a longer structural support leg that welds directly into the frame, allowing suspension loads to be distributed deeper into the chassis instead of concentrating stress at the factory mounting location.
An integrated lower corner gusset is incorporated into the design, replacing the need for the standalone corner gusset upgrade previously offered for Gen 2 Raptors.
THIS KIT IS DESIGNED TO:
• Completely replace the factory stamped-steel Gen 2 coil bucket assembly
• Eliminate the common factory failure where the spring bucket peels away from the frame
• Replace the OEM mounting structure with a fabricated boxed-steel design featuring an extended welded support leg
• Incorporate an integrated lower corner gusset into the replacement coil bucket assembly
• Improve suspension load distribution throughout the frame
• Increase durability for mid-travel and aggressive off-road suspension systems
• Support increased spring rates and upgraded shock systems in demanding off-road environments
COMPATIBILITY
• Works with Foutz Gen 2 Raptor Front Mid-Travel Kit (with Fabricated UCA)
• Works with Foutz Gen 2 Raptor Front Mid-Travel Kit (with Billet UCA)
• Fully compatible with the Foutz Gen 2 Fabricated Bypass Shock Tower Add-On System
FABRICATED COIL BUCKET STRUCTURE
• Complete replacement for the factory stamped-steel coil bucket assembly
• Fully fabricated boxed-steel construction engineered for maximum strength and durability
• Extended welded support leg transfers suspension loads deeper into the frame
• Designed for mid-travel suspension geometry and aggressive off-road use
FEATURES – INTEGRATED LOWER CORNER GUSSET
• Integrated heavy-duty lower corner gusset built directly into the replacement assembly
• Improves load distribution where the coil bucket meets the frame
• Reduces flex during repeated compression cycles
• Increases long-term durability in aggressive off-road conditions
INSTALLATION NOTICE
PLEASE READ BEFORE ORDERING:
• This kit completely replaces the factory coil bucket and must be installed by a qualified fabricator
• Removal of the factory coil bucket and welding to the frame are required
• Proper suspension alignment and setup are required after installation
• Designed for high-performance off-road and race-inspired applications
