    2024 R for $5k Over MSRP

    Pretty sure that is incorrect. I know someone that has a priority 3 on his R and it is being built this month.

    As he is better off with a 50w mounted radio instead? Because if that is the case, I agree.

    SnoBall 2025 - first time - equipment feedback & tips

    If you are going to stick with the handheld radio option, then I would suggest the 9W version over the more common 5W one. It's more powerful. https://www.lvjmotorsports.com/product-page/baofeng-uv9-r-18w-handheld-radio

    SnoBall 2025 - first time - equipment feedback & tips

    Handheld radios can be spotty. The lead truck and the chase truck is the most important ones to listen to. Everyone else just has a great time chatting when traveling. Sometimes the distant is too far from the front to the end and they need someone to relay to the messages to the front and rear...

    SnoBall 2025 - first time - equipment feedback & tips

    Kinetic rope is a must. I have a 7/8' 30'. I just have a regular flat towing rope I bought at Oreilly's. I have never used it but have used the kinetic rope a lot of times. A handheld radio is handy when outside the truck but inside you really need a mounted 50w one. I personally have the...

    What's with the attitude from Dealers?? ADM...

    Hate to say it but there are MSRP deals on R’s out there. Oddly enough it was the first dealership I tried that I saw post on Facebook selling 24’ 37’s for $6k off. I asked about getting an R instead and when I asked about MSRP, I signed and did a deposit. Now I wait but priority code 10 isn’t...

    Off-topic but see it posted. What actual functionality is lost when it's below 13 degrees?

    Headed to Baja with EXO in my 22 (35” tires) which suspension MODS are needed?

    Been on an EXO run. Stock truck would be fine then you can determine after the trip what you want to upgrade. I would get a 3rd brake light upgrade so the person behind you can see you in the dust. You NEED to have a GPS unit (EXO likes Lowrance) and a 50watt UHF radio.

    GEN 2 My Turn for Pinion Bearing?

    I just had my pinion bearing replaced at 40k, it was pitted really bad. They went ahead and overhauled it with all new bearings and seals. I let them use motorcraft but I also had them replace both axle bearings too. Rebuilding the shocks isn't anything that I have ever seen a dealership do...

    Gen 1 Side Frame Reinforcement (Bucket to Body Mount)

    Mine bent underneath where the shock bucket is as seen in the pictures, reinforce it there for sure. Haven’t seen one bend further back than the bucket. I had an SVC frame cut bumper and when I nosed dived at Raptoberfest in 2015, the two front pockets that are exposed hit the ground after it...

    Anyone better options than OEM brake and rotor sets front and rear

    We sell SS lines in stock length and custom lengths. I always recommend getting them a little longer than stock, at least 2”. Different color options too. We sell the StopTech calipers, they are powdercoated red so will match your raptor. ;-) Message me and I can put together a package and offer...

    Anyone better options than OEM brake and rotor sets front and rear

    The OP stated in his first post about rotors and pads. We have had thousands of raptor owners over the last 10 years use our kit off-road with aggressive driving with great results. We get positive feedback all the time. When I went to Baja, no issues whatsoever and this was my 6th time plus...

    PPF Buyers Remorse + I'm an idiot = I'm lost

    Is this a suntek PPF thing?, because I did a full vehicle wrap on mine with Xpel Stealth (also on oxford white) and they wrapped everything except the door pillars, those were done in the glossy Xpel. I was told it could be removed years later without damage to paint and according to Xpel's...

    Are there better options for pads and rotors then OEM?

    You really should try our brake kit that has been on the forum here for 10 years and trusted by thousands of raptor owners. I replaced mine at 28k because I was headed to Baja and to be honest, I had plenty of rotor thickness and pad life but wanted to change them anyways. I had no real issue...
