    Forscan out TPMS

    I'm more interested in just lowering it a bit, the factory 36 or 38psi on my load range E KO2's is about like running wagon wheels. TPMS on Gen1 is all or nothing, it's OMFG DANGER WILL ROBINSON you're below threshold or no light at all, if I could set it to 20 or even just 30 the system would...

    Hey all, happy to join you. This is my new to me 2013, 66k, F150 Raptor. Looking for recommendations on running boards and winch bumpers.

    Looking good! I agree with others that the stock ones are really decent, and failing that (or out of necessity) a set of RPG rock sliders would be a good option...or at least the ones that are on my wish list haha!

    GEN 1 Transmission flushing procedure for DIY guy

    I agree, the flush isn't necessary if you're doing it as preventative (so not likely to have debris in the cooler & lines), and the stock dipstick is redonkulous. I dropped the pan and replaced fluid & filter shortly after I got mine, at 155k miles, and at the same time added Performance...

    GEN 1 Bumpy bump stops

    Can't beat the price though, would be worth trying. I know for sure the bed bolts are different from Gen1 to Gen2 so chances are the frame itself is a little different, could be just bolt hole locations (step bit is your friend), might be width between rails (well hello Sawzall)...

    GEN 1 Bumpy bump stops

    Hmm not sure how the RPG's work without the corresponding strike plate since the factory lift block has it built in, I would call/email 'em and see if those hockey pucks come with just a flat strike plate like what they use with their bump setup (seems most likely). That's the cheapest option...

    Looking at a 2010 Ford Raptor SVT with under 100k miles.. how expensive to maintain them?

    [Sarcasm=heavy] Yeah you can even get something with one of those 3.5L Ecoboost engines in it...

    Looking at a 2010 Ford Raptor SVT with under 100k miles.. how expensive to maintain them?

    That's a sharp truck. When I found mine I had a short list of must-haves, one was nav (and so decent backup camera, those rearview mirror ones are ridiculous) and the other was 6.2L (no firsthand experience against the 5.4L but the spark plug horror stories were enough for me). I'd rather have...

    HELP!! Code U0300

    I looked at a couple Border Patrol Raptors in El Paso before I found mine in Andrews heh, some of them were definitely rode hard and put up wet! One thing to dovetail with @FordTechOne's post; Make sure the battery is new or very good condition, lotsa systems will freak the F out when a...

    High beam issue

    That is odd, can you check the connectors and test for voltage with a multimeter? At least find out if the truck is sending volts to the headlights; from there I would trace the wiring back to BCM (?) and then switch itself. Good luck!

    Seat Memory Button Not Working

    Pretty sure it will only switch between 1 & 2 when in Park; you can adjust and hold the 1 or 2 to save it anytime, but it'll only beep at you if you try to switch between them whilst driving. And yes the pedals/steering should both adjust along with the seat to the two different settings...

    Question. Interest in affordable brake caliper upgrade. Blue Collar BBK.

    Ok I should S T F U because I'm not an enguhneer but 100cm²=15.5in². Just sayin' heh, since it's squared the 2.54cm=1" has to apply to just the two sides (10cm) instead of the total. I didn't run the total area of the rotors because circles are a pain but I don't even know if they would total...

    DIY - Stock Raptor 2.5 Shock Rebuild.

    It's been a while and I'm re-reading the instructions but yes it's messy and you're going to have excess fluid, that's ok, it'll displace the air as it should. Good luck!!

    DIY - Stock Raptor 2.5 Shock Rebuild.

    Nothing, unless you're losing like 500ml of the oil! You will lose some, but better than having air in the shock, make sure the bleeders are open...

    New hood graphics install Monday

    +1, mine's been needing replacement for a while now, thinking sitting in the summer sun is going to make it plenty warm enough.
