Trailmaster vs. Black Raptor was created by Lasse
Now that the debate rages on the suspension and lift topic then let’s see what people recommend and maybe why...
Trailmaster 50mm lift or Black raptor premium 50mm lift?
Or perhaps a third brand!

Jimny Doctor has just fitted a +50mm Black Raptor kit and was very complimentary about it..... said it was better than the X-shock Dakar kit that he had previously fitted.
Trailmaster is reviewed well and recognised as a quality kit.
AVO adjustable dampers +50mm and Eibach prolift +30mm springs with 15mm seats on my car and very happy.

I have no personal experience of either. However it is clear from the specs that the Trailmaster offers more front end flex/suspension travel. As it includes items to drop the front crossmember, where the Trailmaster does not. It instead uses shorter front shocks and long bump stops to restrict travel.
Personally I will be getting the Black Raptor kit, just waiting for things to return to normal a bit more first however.

I have standard height trailmaster dampers on Dreadnaught and they're immense. So so good well worth the hundred quid a corner.

If you are dead set on a 50mm lift, then this will be no good for you. I have just had the Old Man Emu (OME) 40mm lift kit delivered last week. Not fitted it yet, but I know two people that give it excellent reviews on there Gen4's. It doesn't come with a front cross-member kit as it's probably not needed for 40mm, but it does come with a rear panhard bracket to realign that.
