    Spare Tire Life Span

    The date of manufacture is usually noted on the tire after the DOT stamp. In this case, under the R, is 4022 embossed into the sidewall. This means the 40th week of 2022. It's only done on one side usually, so you may need to check the other side for the stamp. Hope this helps. ( And no, this is...

    Long time wish came true.

    Beautiful truck. Looks like it's been lifted. Just wanted to mention Fuse 27. If it hasn't been changed to Fuse 70, you may want to have the dealership do that also. It has nothing to do with your stalling problem as once it blows, the truck won't run at all. $30 and less than an hour for...

    Just another H O R N Y Raptor owner. Welcome to the forum. I would've guessed you were from Texas. Nice Bug too.

    4WD button came apart, Ever happen to you?

    While making a slow right turn, it felt like 4WD was engaged. I noticed the locking differential light was on. When I pulled the button out to check, the whole knob came out of the dash. Fuse 68 (25A) was pulled and it disabled the whole assembly. Being a pavement princess, I only engage 4WD to...

    Transmission updates - aftermarket pan and dipstick?

    Harbor freight sells a battery operated transfer pump that fits perfectly in a Motorcraft quart bottle for $12.99. It worked great for mine. The motor is at the bottom. On button on top. Got mine free with purchase of a 5 gallon diesel can.

    Lack of aftermarket options with stock offset?

    What happened to the "Welcome Prius owner" posts? Show us a pic or it's a Prius. Computer images do not qualify. I'm disappointed . Also if it's Ruby Red or Tuxedo Black, then those wheels are specific to the Special Edition (SE) package with the red trimmed seats. I'm keeping mine stock, but...

    Dumb question on glass cleaning

    I stand corrected. We don't get much snow over here in the swamps.

    Dumb question on glass cleaning

    Down here in the south, the sun rises and sets east to west, which is why I thought they had the time zones set the same way. The things we learn on Raptor forums! However, we'd sell the truck if it didn't have a fleur de lis ( Who Dat Saints). Guessing thatJeepguy lives in NORTH GA. :)...

    New Guy! 2024 37's

    I enjoyed the Ranger photos. We don't have anything like that down here in Louisiana. The only hills we have are overpasses on I-55. Welcome to the forum. Disregard all the future comments about the primer color on your Raptor. :)

    New Member in AZ - Gen 1 - 2014 - Need Guidance!

    Very nice '14 model. I have the red one. Red seats mean Special Edition (SE) which was only available on the Ruby Red and Tuxedo Black along with the SVT rims only found on the SEs. I did just about all the maintenance required items myself and am glad to see I saved unbelievable amounts of...

    WTB: Gen 2 Shelby Raptor

    Wouldn't mind buying one myself for THAT price. Good luck.

    Drunk driver almost blew up my house!

    Dang Meat2022. Close call. Hope they catch him. Things like that are just one of the reasons my driveway is 900' feet long with a couple of curves before you get to my house. Hate that happened to you. Doesn't sound like you missed any work though. Good man.

    HVAC Troubleshooting

    I had the similar problem with the a/c on my '14. It turned out to be the recirculation door, aka actuator, aka blend air door as seen above . A trusted local mechanic shop replaced with part #DL3219A618A. He also replaced the actuator motor #YH1770 while he was in there. Part #s are probably...

    Oil on running board

    I own a Peterbilt with over 2 million (that's correct...million) miles on it. Needless to say, it collects a LOT of road grime, grease, and oil on my fuel tanks, battery boxes, and overall trim and frame. I haven't found anything better than a product called SUPERCLEAN in a purple jug. I buy it...

    Gen 1 as the daily?

    While I'm not a mechanic, only mechanically inclined as a do-it-yourselfer, that looks more like a gasket issue. My '14SE has 151K miles, is not a DD, and 3.5 years ago, I paid $32K with 136K miles on it. Drove home from Dallas 515 miles non-stop, except for 1 gas stop. Didn't know about Fuse 27...

    New guy

    Welcome and beware. Beautiful truck and I'm not big on black vehicles, but that one looks great (while it's clean). Just noticed however your attempt to hide your Raptor plate for privacy, yet you didn't do the same on your Mustang.:eek:

    Bought this last week

    Welcome. Nice truck. My research showed 2014 was the first year Ruby Red was available on a RAPTOR. It was available before on other F150 models. The red seats were only available on SE models which were either Ruby Red or Tuxedo Black. According to my original sticker which I ordered from...

    How to strap this down?

    You should join the DNA; the National Dyslexic Association.

    What ya putting in your lip

    I used to do Juicy Fruit, but now I do Doublemint. You can tell I've lead a non eventful life. :) But I do find it amazing what you'll find on a RAPTOR forum:D:D

    Shelter Green Satin PPF

    I like Braptors. That color looks like it just drove up the a$$ of someone who just ate a Sonic Chili dog. Just saying.

    Thinking about buying this truck. What do i need to look out for?

    Sorry. Missed the word REAL in the OP. Just my opinion.

    Thinking about buying this truck. What do i need to look out for?

    3 prior owners with only 27K miles? Red flag!! I personally like the styling but wouldn't have much use for the extra tires in the bed. I'm not a BAJA racer. I think I'd wait for a used RaptoR about the same price.
