    Brainstorming Potential IWE Solution

    and FWIW the other OEM's use unit bearings aka live axle like the raptor should have used from the beginning. It just works.

    Brainstorming Potential IWE Solution

    There is no such thing as a "no compromise" each route will have its positives, and it's negatives. You have to decide for you, what you want. There are solutions to the iwe issue. And people have had great success with them. A forum member that used to be on here way back in the day ran an...

    CADILLAC Escalade or Raptor

    the gas job in the F450/550 is still the 6.8 V10. the 250/350 gets the 6.2

    CADILLAC Escalade or Raptor

    Hell I'd take the sound of ticking lifters over the tiny V6. the lifters are probably louder on their own.

    like mentioned, a lot of vehicles have a live axle. It's not as big of a deal as a lot of people want to think it is. having things constantly spinning doesn't drop your MPG much at all, if any. It's free spinning. it's not taking any power when in 2wd to spin itself. there is no load on any of...

    Nothing wrong with unit bearings IMO. especially with RCV axles. the front end is an open diff so it wont cause any issues really. It's not bad on the axles. or boots. IMO it's actually better for them to always be moving, instead of sitting still in one spot. many trucks have live front ends...

    Wheel bearing replacement

    I guess it depends who's doing the work. I'm guessing thats a quote from a ford dealership? Sounds about right along the lines of what they would take.

    Towing capacity

    legally speaking, nothing can be done to increase your towing/payload capacities. that being said if you don't care about legalities and insurance, stiffer springs, better brakes, etc will all help with towing. Much of what applies to the first gen in regards to helping with towing, will apply...

    The 2017 Eco-Boost vs V8 Bench Racing / Whining thread

    I'll take a weak arse NA V8 over a Weak arse TT any day. the potential for gains in a large NA V8 engine are far greater than potential gains in a smaller already FI v6.

    New BFG T/A KO2

    also, on the off chance a street queen does go offroad, the E range is by far the better choice. far less chance of punctures or sidewall cuts (goes for street driving too, but less of a chance) ---------- Post added at 08:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 PM ---------- Good excuse...

    New BFG T/A KO2

    Keep in mind the weight ratings of the tires however. the C range tires may be more comfy, but is it worth the sacrifice in handling? the C range tires on my light ranger are marshmallowy enough when on pavement. Can't imagine they would be better on a heavier raptor. probably be 100% fine no...
