    GEN 2 2019 Faulty Exhaust TSB 19-2286

    I was looking for this part on a local dealer's website. They show a different part number (not part # KL3Z-5230-A referenced earlier in the thread). Is this the correct part? I'm further confused because they also list vehicle fitment on both the limited and raptor? Home 2018 Ford F-150...

    2019 B&O Stereo upgrade

    Yes, Apicella Auto Sound makes a kit to replace the center channel speaker. Here's a link to an awesome system they built for a Gen 2 with details on the center channel kit. They offer the kit separately and it's around $500...

    Waiting over 2 months for part--- dealer blames Covid

    That's great that you are at least getting some feedback on the status of the parts. As mentioned, North Central Ford could have cared less and acted like I was a bother every time I called to check on the status (which was only the two times they said the driveline was supposed to arrive). I...

    Waiting over 2 months for part--- dealer blames Covid

    No kidding, for Ford anyway. DEN, hope you have better luck than I did with the ETA the dealer provided.

    Raptors built during COVID

    My glove box looked the same as your description when I got it. It was actually just the owners manual causing it not to shut properly. I moved it to the tray at the top of the glove box and it shuts completely now. The owners manual for this thing is ridiculous, 600+ pages plus all the...

    Waiting over 2 months for part--- dealer blames Covid

    Great suggestions, will be doing both and I look forward to receiving a survey from Ford as well. At this point I honestly don't want North Central Ford touching my truck again. I'll definitely check with the other dealer and see if they can help locate the part though.

    Waiting over 2 months for part--- dealer blames Covid

    Hahaha I think I'm more annoyed by North Central Ford's attitude about it. They told me initially the driveshaft would be in 11/20. I call then to check on it and was told it's now due in on 12/20. Call yesterday and they tell me it's still backordered and they will call me when it's there...

    Waiting over 2 months for part--- dealer blames Covid

    I actually bought a used one from LKQ already LOL. I was hoping I could just keep it as a spare. It looks like the warrantied part might not arrive any time soon so it might be going in now.

    Waiting over 2 months for part--- dealer blames Covid

    Yep, I have an appointment with another dealer (Five Star Ford) next week. Since this all started I've had them service my truck and had much better luck.

    Waiting over 2 months for part--- dealer blames Covid

    I've been waiting over 2 months for a front driveshaft to be available for my truck. Is anyone else seeing similar holdups on parts for their trucks? Covid or not, I think waiting 2+ months is unreasonable considering the truck isn't even 2 years old and that's an essential part in operation...

    Stock exhaust cleaner/ sealant

    I used something similar to Smokyray, Rustoleum Flat Black "High Heat". I used it to touch up some scratches and it matched up really close to the factory finish they put on the exhaust tips. I also found this tool works great to straighten the tips out if they get out of round. It's designed...

    Fully Loaded 2018 or No Option 2019

    I was debating the same when I bought my truck. Found a great deal on a 2018 802A that was still new and sitting on a dealer lot in March 2019. It was hard to find a truck back then that wasn't loaded out. The only base trucks I could find were in New Mexico for some reason and were sold by...

    WDH, Class IV Hitch, or Timbren? Combination?

    I tow a 6,200lb trailer with my Gen 2 on stock springs with WDH and it tows great. This is the best weight distribution kit IMO and the one I use with the 4" drop: https://andersenhitches.com/Catalog/4-droprise-wd-kits.aspx It's really simple to attach/detach, has built in sway control, and...

    Start Stop insanity

    Ford only cares about meeting fuel economy standards and the engine making it until it's out of warranty. Obviously an engine is going to see more wear with the stop/start constantly on.

    Start Stop insanity

    For me the negligible gain in mpg isn't worth the damage it does to the engine.

    Start Stop insanity

    You can permanently disable the start/stop for free. All you have to do is unplug the black plug at the bottom of the trailer brake light module. I unplugged mine before I even drove it off the lot. The only time you'd need to plug it back in would be when you are towing a trailer. If not...

    New Goodyear "Wrangler" tire

    I've had horrible luck with the last 3 sets of Goodyear tires we've owned. The last 2 Audi's we bought had Goodyear tires from the factory. The treadwear was horrible on those cars until we replaced them with Michelins. We also had 3 tires we had to replace because of bubbles in the sidewall...

    Raptor Assault

    Do the trucks run different skidplates? I thought I saw a photo of a Raptor Assault truck that had the Foutz Motorsports style skidplate. The front skid on these trucks is pretty stout. The stock transmission/tcase skidplate won't hold up to much from my experience though.

    GEN 2 Towing Track Car with 2019 Raptor - Need some help

    You will definitely want a weight distribution hitch and brakes on both axles of the trailer. I use the Andersen setup and tow a 2,200 lb trailer with either a viper or jeep on it. The jeep is heavier and weighs about 4k lbs so total trailer weight is around 6,200 lbs. This is the kit I use...
