Foutz Motorsports 5-Link Rear Axle Lower Link Mount Kit – Weld-On 2021-2023 Ford F-150 Raptor

These lower mounts include the limit strap mounting point as part of the bracket, rather than leaving it as a separate thing to figure out later.

That is worth having because a limit strap is what stops the rear suspension overextending at full droop. Without one, the shock becomes the part that stops the axle — and it was never designed to be. Building the tab into the lower mount means the strap pulls from a point that is already tied into the housing properly.

The straps themselves are in the rear limit strap kit.

Converting an older axle to Gen 3 five link

A Gen 1 or Gen 2 Raptor axle housing has none of the Gen 3 five link pick-up points. These brackets put the lower link mounts where the Gen 3 geometry needs them.

Repairing damaged factory mounts

A torn lower link mount does not mean a new axle housing. Cut the damaged bracket off and weld these on in its place.

• .250" (1/4") mild steel, laser cut
• MIG welded assemblies
• Limit strap mount integrated into each bracket
• Raw steel finish — no coating to burn off at the weld

Doing the whole axle? The complete axle mount kit bundles upper, lower, panhard and spring mounts.

Built to the Gen 3 and Gen 3.5 Ford F-150 Raptor five link axle configuration, model years 2021 through 2026 including the Raptor R.

Also the parts to use when adapting a Gen 1 or Gen 2 Raptor axle housing to Gen 3 five link geometry.

Welds directly to the axle housing. Qualified fabricator only. Mount position sets your rear suspension geometry.

We do axle work in-house in Mesa, Arizona. Install guides are at Install Instructions.

Are the limit straps included?

No — the mounting tabs are built into these brackets, and the straps themselves come in the rear limit strap kit.

Do these come painted or coated?

No, raw steel. Coating burns off at the weld, and this way you match whatever finish the rest of the axle gets.

Can I replace just one damaged mount?

Yes. That is a large part of why this exists.

Where are they made?

Laser cut, welded and finished in-house at our facility in Mesa, Arizona, USA.
