The concept
behind the MegaRaptor™
Conversion
Every MegaRaptor™ will be unique.
They will each go through the conversion process that has become a very standard and fine tuned procedure, but after that, the options are endless.
Let me tell you a little about the MegaRaptor™ conversion process. The fun begins by starting out with a Brand New Ford Super Duty, either provided by you or we can find source one.
​
We will start from the ground up. Each MegaRaptor™ will be rolling on the best name in tires, Michelin. A Brand New Michelin XZL Tire will be mounted on Custom Forged, 2-piece Mega 4x4™ Military Grade Aluminum Wheels rated at 10,000 lbs each. The tires are also "G" rated, so weight is no issue for a MEGA. We balance them for smooth operation on the highway on a special machine designed exclusively by Hunter for these large radial tires.
Now that we have those gigantic tires mounted and balanced, each axle is re-geared to a higher gear ratio, so that no loss of power is felt and that diesel engine has no problems pulling the larger tires.
I bet you are wondering how big of a lift kit we have to go with to cram a 46” tire under the truck. Well, actually, we only put a mild 6” lift to level the truck and to keep the center of gravity low, a wider track bar to keep stability when cornering and longer shocks in the front and rear.
The key to a great all-around truck is to LIFT the differentials/axles (with larger tires) so they clear rocks, snow, mud, and other obstacles. The tires are also wider than stock, which help to prevent the tire from sinking into mud, etc. At the same time, our patented fiberglass body design allows you to run these larger tires with little lift. We move the front axle forward for several reasons. Not only to clear the firewall with the larger tire, but longer travel suspension for much better offroad capability.
The low center of gravity allows the MegaRaptor™ to do what it was designed to do. Keep the ability to tow.
Once all of the pieces come together, your new MegaRaptor™ is ready for paint. Once painted, it is rolled out, and custom accessories are added. Because of extensive changes to the body, normal accessories do not fit the truck but don’t worry.
We thought of that. We partnered with big-name accessory companies to private label our branded accessories to fit only our builds.
