These Billet Top Hats are engineered to provide maximum strength and reliability for your stock shock upper mounts on the Ranger Raptor.
CNC-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, each top hat is designed for a perfect fit and long-lasting durability. High-quality FK uniballs are used in every kit to ensure superior strength and performance, while the 17-4 stainless steel spacers provide exceptional quality and long life.

WHY STOCK TOP HATS FAIL
The factory top hats rely on a rubber bushing to support the shock shaft, which is a known weak point—especially with aftermarket springs. If a stock top hat fails:
- The shock can drop completely out of the spring bucket
- Surrounding suspension components may be damaged
- Expensive repairs can result—damage that can be avoided with a stronger billet top hat
Upgrading to the Foutz Motorsports Billet Top Hat eliminates this failure point, giving you confidence and durability for off-road and performance driving.
Kit Includes:

These billet aluminum top hats feature a serviceable and replaceable uniball that will require periodic maintenance over time
- The uniball is pressed into the billet aluminum housing manufactured by Foutz Motorsports. While it will naturally wear over time, it can be easily replaced with an affordable replacement.
- The lifespan of the uniball varies depending on driving conditions, usage, and environment, so maintenance intervals may differ between users.
- Uniballs are not manufactured by Foutz Motorsports. However, we use industry-leading FK rod end uniballs in all of our suspension components to ensure the highest possible quality and durability.
- The uniball is considered a wear item and should be replaced when signs of wear appear.
For the standard billet top hat, we use the FK uniball part number FKS12T, which is available for purchase directly on our website here: FK FKS12T Replacement Uniball
