DO A THERMOSTAT!!!

KHC bolts are a recipe for terrible galvanic corrosion, I would not use them with the OEM nuts. Also those grade 8 bolts are terrible when it comes to corrosion protection compared to factory.

I think offroad alliance has a video showing how to replace these bed nuts without any of the bed lifting etc... I just pulled my rear most bed bolts to re powder my bed supports and install d rings. I sprayed them like crazy with corrosion x and used the TP-50 and a breaker bar and went real...

No heated steering wheel trucks = red headed step child of Raptors in the North

This has nothing to do with the cam phaser issue. The original hardware was just not made for long term durability for the duty cycle.

I run 87 in my Gen2 all day unless I'm at an event or towing. I think i heard it knock maybe once and pull timing. Never again. I dont drive hard in normal traffic, no reason, so 87 is fine an I have almost 90k miles.

Yep you should see some of the dents on the bottom of the running boards that would have been my doors if they were not there

These look very clean. Like you admit, Raptor usage aside, even the OEM ones dont hold up to salt/snow. My neighbor has an F150 with them deployed all the time because they are broken. Also, you'll find your gonna have tons of rock chips up the side of the truck just from the road. The OEM...

Yep, got to keep them lubricated up. I have helped a few friends solve their issues in similar ways you describe.

That is what I consider minor or normal. I looked at mine once and was similar. You might try lubing up the seals and see if it helps, but mines always had some drips like that.

They all have a few minor drips , mine does a little. All goes down the drains, thats what they are for.

@Bryan_Arlaud See my post from quite a while ago, glad you figured it out.

And they will laugh at you... thats why its not worth over MSRP... because it does not go both ways with the dealer...

Looking forward to the progress! If the bones are good, thats a great start!

Mine has been going on awhile, also passengerside. 85k just found it being under the truck today.

Wow, i've had these for my GT350 and prior GT for a long time. Was always bummed they never made anything for the Raptor. When did this come out?

Find a private party to buy from. I dont trust any dealers on a performance vehicle that isnt knew. More than likely prople trade in problem vehicles then sell them outright

Mines never done it, 85k miles

Yep that will be my plan when its time.....

Mines well out of warranty and mine have been doing the same thing for a couple years, just took getting worse to notice it. I half wonder if its dissimilar metals with the beauty ring steel bolts and aluminum wheels... Ill have to pull my beauty rings when I get a chance and see where its...

Thats crazy, I bet you could get a F150 at Enterprise if you ask nice for the 65 bucks or if you rent anywhere for business and have a relationship. Not ideal, but maybe an option. Id start calling other dealers as well just to double check the concern/backordered parts. I got stuck in a...

Was there last Friday. Was nice a peaky! Love finding a good high speed run on the backside. Also a plus, probably 15 trucks and 20 ATVS in the whole place so could do whatever you wanted. If you didn't want to participate in the event stuffs you could just show up, its open to the public.

We drive these things in the desert every year, run them hard then drive them across the country back home.

Still available or sold?

lol somehow I got this mixed up with a Gen 2 thread, so my bad. Gen 2 specific I mean you can.
