    [Gen2] New Engine Price? Follow up on Blown Engine...

    Not even sure. I asked if I could find out what actually happened so it didn't happen again, and they said ford usually doesn't break down the motor to find out? Seemed weird. They said they manually cranked over the motor sounded like a mess internally?

    [Gen2] New Engine Price? Follow up on Blown Engine...

    What I learned is a big expense of a 5.0 or a 7.3 liter swap is even though the transmission will work with it, the housing locates and mounts the transmission in a new different location than the ecoboost. This requires a new transmission in the swap and a lot of added expense.

    Long Travel

    Yes, I will be doing a C notch to gain about 3 to 4 inches of above travel which I think is a big deal. As it sits right now, the front end way out performs the rear.

    [Gen2] New Engine Price? Follow up on Blown Engine...

    I just replaced my motor in the fall here in Gilbert AZ with a brand new Ecoboost for $21k with a 3 year unlimited mileage warranty. My truck had 93,000 miles (it’s a 2018) and I change the oil at 5000 miles regularly. Major bummer. I looked into several 5.0 or 7.3 options and they were at...

    Long Travel

    Sorry I realized this is a gen 1 forum and my truck is a gen 2. But the kit is the same either way. Yes 10" stroke shock, that is a big deal. Rear end is a deaver spring over with a 18" 3.5 king. I will be going spring under soon to get more uptravel at ride height.

    Long Travel

    Here's my front end. Kevin at H&M did it. Super solid setup. Been very happy over the years with it.

    Expected MPG?

    Since the GT 500 can’t finish a 20 minute track session without running out of gas. I wouldn’t be so optimistic.

    Help! Out of Patience. Truck at ford dealer 6 months since April!

    They ordered parts that just got in. They let me take the truck home about a month ago. It will go back to the dealer the 22 of February and will honor the warranty.

    Help! Out of Patience. Truck at ford dealer 6 months since April!

    Honestly the dealer has been awesome to work with but I do think I have some ground to stand on to complain when it’s been 6 months this year and 2 months last year. Plus they promised me it would be done and that’s months ago now. Truck hasn’t even been started for months. I know they aren’t...

    Help! Out of Patience. Truck at ford dealer 6 months since April!

    I have a 2018 Ford Raptor with 59,000 (dealer wants to keep it to stay under warranty) miles on it and it has been in the shop with Larry H Miller in Mesa for 24 weeks since April. In fairness, some of that time was to replace a steering rack. However I’m out of patience. They are trying to...
