The absolute best Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 kit for your 2014 Ford F-150 Raptor is the Stainless Steel Ultimate Plus Air Springs w/ Internal Bumpers # AL38UV. The stainless steel hardware and braided hoses mean they are more resistant to the elements than standard parts and then the internal bumpers ensure the air bags don't get pinched when you don't have much air in them (be sure not to go under 5 psi for this very reason).

I always recommend at least checking out an air compressor kit as well because it means you'll be able to monitor and adjust the pressure in your air bags on the go instead of having to plan out stops to ensure your air bags are properly inflated. For your application I really like the Air Lift WirelessONE # AL25980.
