Outside of the turbos, most of your mods seem to be very similar to the stage II tunes we've seen from other members. What increases were you expecting from the turbos?
I really don't to move the camera or do a anything to mess with the factory electronics. I've watched too many wiring horror stories on motorcycles and other vehicles with CAN BUS type systems stemming from the slightest alterations or modifications.
I'm willing to give up a little bit of...
That's an aesthetically pleasing idea. I'm more of a function over form kind of guy so I'd probably opt for 4 LP9's. There are cows and deer out there that need to be turned to ash at a 1000 yards.
That being said, mounting LP6/9's in the outer positions may be the ideal solution. Does...
I think for the cost of a TRX I could keep my Gen 2 Raptor and by a gen 1 Raptor. Then supercharged the Gen 1 Raptor, add a trick suspension, a full desert set up with two spares and full beadlocks. I could then fill up both trucks, insure them for a couple of years and still save s*** ton of...
I have installed a set of BD Squadrons/S1's in the bumper pockets. They're great on the road. I do a lot of traveling between Denver and Spearfish, SD. Deer are a big issue on US85 and other places I travel. I also travel a lot in Mexico on adventure bikes.
I just had a hip replacement (I...
I think a better solution, to ensure safety for the system, will be to wire accent lights from the S8 into my Amber fog lights and consider them an additional bad weather marker. My fog lights are wired into the upfitter switches.

Ok. @FordTechOne I just happened to see your post. Does that mean I'm creating a potential problem running the S8 backlighting off of the marker lights? That's been recommended in the kit.

We had about 4-6 inches here the other day. I ran the 3 miles of county road (dirt) in Baja mode because I never tried it. Lots of fun. By the time I got to the pavement most of the roads had been driven on or the plows had come through. I drove home in 4A/normal. The truck never slipped...
Find a Craigslist bumper, Replace the headlight and facia. Use a good paint shop. You'd probably be done for $2K. Then drive it and enjoy it. Tell the kid to get a job and pay for it. But maybe I'm a little old school.
When I was in high school, in Georgia, with my dad's 63 Ford there was always an 870 and a 30-30 in the rack. Never a problem or worried about it. Now it's a raptor, Beretta over/unders and a self absorbed social justice pioneer on every corner. Some of the magic of it is definitely gone...
I drove back to Denver from South Dakota. Blowing snow and 25 degrees the whole way. There's probably 300 pounds of ice on the truck.

Assuming Ford goes with the Powerboost option as the standard engine, what does it add weight wise? With batteries, doesn't it require frame re-enforcement as well? I'm not familiar with the hybrid setups.
Ok. The shocks that have been discussed her are Kings, Fox 3.0, Icons and Sway-Aways. All of them are premium shocks and are rebuildable. All have ride qualities that can be tuned to just about any driver's satisfaction. My question is what is the service life between rebuilds for these...
Off pavement does not always mean off road. My experience is really from the adventure bike market but I think the rules are applied the same way. Guys I have ridden with have had "incidents" on forest service and BLM roads and have had that damage covered. Some have been ticketed and some...
I understand that the ride height needs to be set on live valve (19-20) raptors and I understand how this affects the performance of those raptors. I also understand that a ride height calibration is not necessary for the 17-18 Gen 2's. Is there any ride height or other calibration that SHOULD...
I picked up my raptor last week in South Dakota. I drove back to Denver pretty much at 80 and getting 15 mpg. This was my 1st real road experience with Raptors. This is easily the nicest truck I have ever been in. I stopped in Guernsey, WYOMING to take a break and a State Trooper wanted to...
I just bought my first Raptor. It's a white 2018 with 33k on the clock. It's fully equipped with everything except the Recaros. It probably won't see any mods other than a leveling kit. WooHoo!!!
So...Now for the hard question. What's the best shop in Denver to work on these? My dealer...
