    Has anyone needed a new Clock Spring?

    A week or so ago, I noticed an AirBag fault light. I am still under warranty (the truck not me), so I made a Service appointment through the internet. The next day ALL steering wheel controls stopped operating (Except the actual Steering-Wheel. The horn was gone, cruise, mode, etc. etc...

    OBD2 Port cap has wires coming out??

    OK, So if you are at least 70 tears old and are reading this, probably no explanation is needed, but as most of you Raptor owners are younger (a few in diapers), Let me explain..... Yep, I told the dealership NO, NO, NO to their $700 alarm. They of course explained that it was already...

    So what are these two threaded (empty) holes for, just under the tailgate, right side? They should be filled with at leased some chrome screw? Someone with ALL the options tell me what these are for? Beer Cooler bracket? Childs safety seat? Tow hook for Chevy? Empty stuff drives me nuts...

    Aux Switch Manufacturer? Momentary Aux Switch

    Does anyone know the manufacturer of the Aux switches used on the Gen 2 Raptor? I am trying to locate a matching "momentary" switch for use as a garage door opener. I have not tried pulling the switch panel apart yet to see if I can locate the switch manufacturer. For example, most lighting...

    Raptor Assault - Yet another question

    Hey thanks so much for all the info. I just bought the Hero9 with suction cup. I noticed on YouTube that most all of the attendees appear to be like I used to be about 40 years ago. I mean, in my excitement to sign up, get rental car, hotel, etc. I totally forgot I am pushing 68. I may be...

    Raptor Assault - Yet another question

    Sorry, but after some forum searching, I got a little conflicting info, and a bit outdated info from a few years ago. I am registered for the November session. I wanted to buy, and take a GoPro camera along. I have emailed the Ford contact, but have not yet received an answer, so I thought I...

    Shafted by the dealership?

    Four weeks ago, when I purchased my SCAB, I was trying to work with a dealer I trust (I know...trust and dealer do not normally fit in the same sentence)). I had purchased several trucks from this same salesman in the past, and had achieved a more or less NO BS relationship. Problem was, they...

    GEN 2 Rear Driver Seat Fold - Yes it only takes a week!

    I'm confused, what do you mean "my seat problem" Damn, now I have another issue when I go down to the VA hospital. I thought it was Fords seat problem. Anyway, I am keeping that strap I found. I hooked it onto my zipper on my jeans so I can cancel the order for the second Built Right Latch...

    GEN 2 Rear Driver Seat Fold - Yes it only takes a week!

    My son in law has a Gen 1. The latch appears the same. The defining issue is clearance! The SCREW seat back moves forward as the bottom seat cushion is lifted. This provides an opportunity to at least see the latch. The SCAB seat back does not move forward, leaving it mostly all guess work. I...
