Truck’s at the dealership and they are asking what I feel is a pretty high quote to replace the thermostat and right side valve cover. Anyone who’s had this done, would you be willing to share what you paid?

If anyone is still monitoring this, after 3,500 miles I swapped back to the C Load KO2’s and they are a better daily driving tire. Tire shop honored BFG’s 60-day guarantee. I have full confidence that once they come out with the appropriate load rating of the KO3 for the Raptor it should be...

Ya I’d say if you’ve liked them, stick with them for now. One thing I forgot to mention - I asked the guys at the tire shop how the KO3’s balanced compared to KO2’s and he said they were easier to balance and required minimal weight. I never had trouble with my KO2’s not being balanced, but the...

500 mile update with the KO3’s (F Load) which I had installed two days ago. I’ve had a bit of everything to test them on - highway, snow, dirt roads, mud. I have run at 37psi all around with the intention of lowering incrementally until I find a sweet spot. Prior to this I had run three sets...

Currently getting KO3’s on my Gen 2. Also worried about the F load rating and added weight but figured I will try them out. Will report back once I put some miles on them. I’m coming off of the C Load KO2’s so will have a direct comparison.

How much higher over stock did the +3HD’s sit when you had the 450lbs weight in the bed? I’m deciding between +2HD or +3HD. I’d be fine with 1 inch over stock which I know the +3’s are supposed to be, but I’m worried it would be taller in reality. Have to fit into my garage with a cap on…

Firing up this thread again - I just put my SmartCap on and hooked up the supplied T cable to the 16-pin connector under the truck. No luck getting the third brake light to work. The cable from RSI had an additional single ring-end wire with no instructions on what to do with it. Am I missing...

Maybe more importantly, when do we get a Gen 4? No time soon, I’d imagine.

I'll reply to my own question here and flag that in the video breaking down the AZ recovery (reposted below) the guy says NOT to connect the rope directly to the hitch pin, for the reason I stated above (potential to bend/break the hitch pin given it's no longer true sheer pressure). I trust...

Question for the group... In what situation would you use a receiver hitch d-ring shackle like the below? It seems like this just adds another (very heavy) potential point of failure. If your rope/strap has a loop in the end, wouldn't you always prefer to stick the loop directly into your...

How are you liking the setup?

I run the Lewis dog boots. I put one wrap of tape inside out around his ankles, (sticky side toward the boot), then put the boot on, then go around the outside of the boot a couple times with tape. Trick is to have the inner tape meet with the outer tape at the top so the adhesive of both meet...

I’m here to please

Dogs will get comfortable just about anywhere. I bet they’ll fit, but they might try to steal some space from your son. If you do go the topper route, get a remote thermometer to monitor the bed temp while you’re driving and know if you need to bring the dogs in. It gets HOT back there on warm...

I’ve started using this. Works well.
