    MBRP Turndown exhaust.

    I removed my spare tire to get my stock exhaust out ...not sure if that was 100% necessary but it made it possible without lifting the truck at all. Another option...

    How To Wire Raptor AUX upfitter switches

    All the wires that "pass through" the firewall from the glove box area to under the hood are the same gauge. The actual aux wires behind the glove box are sized according to what is appropriate based on their fuse rating.

    Netix's Raptor!

    Holy crap. So the "new + improved" V1.1 snapped and they wanted to send you "new + improved" V1.2? The one you waited 7 months for snapped in 5 minutes?

    Well, I'm sure others would love to hear details, but nobody is twisting your arm. Sorry it didn't work out for you.

    SOLVED: How to remove scratches from gauge cluster!

    No, glaze is like an oily substance that enhances shine and fills in light scratches. It is basically hiding the scratches, not removing them like wet sanding. I hit it with some glass cleaner afterwards and it didn't dull at all. I'm sure I will have to do it once in a while when the glaze...

    SOLVED: How to remove scratches from gauge cluster!

    If at first it doesn't work, keep at it. In other words, your arm should be tired before you call it good.

    2008fx4 2013 oxford white screw mild buildup

    Those don't look too bad. If they don't grow on you then you can probably live without the rear ones. The front ones are definitely worth more in the function department therefore looks take a back seat.

    SOLVED: How to remove scratches from gauge cluster!

    The day I was leaving for home from the Havoc run I decided to give my interior a quick wipe down and clean some of the dust off my dash, seats, etc. In my haste, I used a dry microfiber towel that was apparently covered in dirt to wipe my gauge cluster. Bad move, idiot. I knew better but I was...

    How To Wire Raptor AUX upfitter switches

    You can put a slightly larger fuse in but ultimately the wiring will be the weak point. That being said, you can get away with running 15a thru the Aux 4 wiring. I wouldn't try anything bigger though.

    Havoc in the hills picture & video thread

    The first words out of Randy's mouth after stepping out of the truck and looking at the tire were to me. I said Randy Wtf or at least I gave him a look implying that. He just nodded his head slightly and said "we did it man." Lol

    First Mod

    If you're going for smile factor and day to day functionality I would say intake/exhust and tune. Mostly the tune, I giggled for weeks after getting my 5 Star tune. It's Raptor beast mode.

    Bakflip F1 vs Fibermax

    It has basic information for example the F1 has a 3 year warranty vs 2 years on the Fibermax. Other than that they are the same except for the hinge design. The flush mount hinge on the F1 is more water proof than the hinge on the Fibermax. The 1/2" vs 5/8" thickness is a bullshit marketing...

    Will these speakers fit?

    The factory speakers are 5 x 7. My JL 5x7s lined up perfectly to the factory screw locations but were just a hair smaller than the factory speakers. I remedied this by layering Dynamat around the opening/lip to create a nice air tight mounting surface. In other words, 5 x 7s will fit perfectly...
