The truck performed pretty good. I had a couple spots where the trailer seemed to be swaying a bit, but it was also windy out. Most of the trip it was a smooth ride. Averaged about 10.5 mpg. With the truck resting the bump stops were not even contacted. There was probably 1/4" or less gap...
I don't tow often with the boat. Getting it out of storage tonight and then driving it 2 hours away to the dealer that I bought the boat from for service. I will pick it up next weekend so another 2 hours back.
So far the ride has been the same. Obviously I am only driving on the road so no...
@Tazercat @98Craig @Rocu2zzz I get in touch with Timbren on the Bump stops that didn't work. For the second time they sent me some new parts to make this work. Timbren has been very responsive and helpful in helping make their bump stops work on the Gen 3. Both times they got with engineering...
Maybe it would help if everybody took their complaints about this clunking to the f150gen14 forum. I noticed a post the other day about a truck having a clunking noise on the passenger side on his truck. About 6 posts down, Ford chimed in to see if he could help the guy get his problem...
I have noticed a rattle when I am listening to music with more bass. I had also tightened the subwoofer in the back and noticed the other day that it definitely seemed like the sunshade.
I just received a message from Timbren saying they are sending me some new spacers and hardware out today. The nice thing about Timbren, sales has worked with their engineering and with me to try to get this right both times I have reached out to them. Hopefully I get the parts quickly since I...
So Saturday I attempted to install the new brackets with the extra spacers and hardware that was given to me by Timbren. They did not work, at least not with what Timbren sent to me. I got the bracket on the truck (need a fitted ratcheting wrench to attach to the truck). Several not very well...
I plan on installing my Timbren bump stops tomorrow. I had them on in the fall and had about a 3" gap between the bump stop and the axle. Called Timbren and they sent me the corrected hardware and extra spacers. I will let you all know how the gapping is after I get them installed. I am...
I bought the Timbrens back in October. I attached them on my truck to pull my boat. Timbren states that these should be about 1/2" - 1 1/2" gap between the bumpstop and the axle. Mine measured out to almost 3" of gap. I called Timbren and they sent me a new piece of steel and spacers that...
I will wave if somebody waves at me, so I am not a snob. However, I don't initiate a wave. The jeep wave is a jeep thing and lets keep it that way. Jeeps have become the most trendy vehicle out there and seems to be owned predominantly by chicks any more. Not knocking Jeeps, but there are...
This was all at the dealer that damaged my truck when I had it their for oil change and service. The clicking muffler being one of the things I wanted them to look into. Ford saw my post and reached out to me to help facilitate all of my concerns with the damage and the other issues I was...
I get they are ugly, but I only tow a couple times a year so this is the cheapest and easiest to obtain solution. I have seen the guards that mount to the trailer and considered that as well. Cost a little bit more, but a decent solution.
Anybody use Rock Tamers on any of their Raptors? Looking to get a set of Rock Tamers so I don't get rock chips on my boat when I tow it.
I see they have exhaust outlets for dual exhaust trucks. Anybody have any experience with these? Also curious if there are any other brands that work...
This has happened in Sport, slippery and towing modes for me. The one problem is if you don't answer the yes or no fairly quickly, the answers disappear quickly and go back to normal drive mode. Still not a replacement for the "My Mode" button.
You might just need to get an update from the dealer to fix it. I only have the stock bumper, but I was having some of the issues that people above were having. My sensors were worse after car washes and in the snow and cold. Had my truck at the dealer and they said they had to do an update...
New boat? That is a different boat than one of your other "towing" topic posts. Nice setup.
Is that a G23? What is your total weight with that boat? Did you add any suspension mods to help?
I agree. Ford advertised this as being good for tailgating. I tailgate for every Notre Dame game and never used it because you have to have the truck running. Because of this, it is actually terrible for tailgating. Nothing like tailgating and breathing exhaust fumes while watching a tv on...
