    Dorman IWEs?

    Hi All, DO any of you have experience with Dorman IWEs? They have them on Amazon for under $75, which seems cheap. In general, Dorman parts arent bad, but I dont know about these. Dont know how much they are through Ford, but usually the box for a part like this would be about $50 alone from...

    Front Stock Fox vs Fox 3.0 vs Icon 3.0 vs King 3.0: Dyno Results

    When I first put the Gieser Bros Springs on, I put them on low perch. That leveled out the truck with stock rear leafs. As I said earlier, I didn't care for the ride, but you might like it fine. Its not a bad ride and much better than the stock pogo stick springs, but to use dirt bike terms, it...

    Front Stock Fox vs Fox 3.0 vs Icon 3.0 vs King 3.0: Dyno Results

    If you want to step it up another notch, go with the Gieser Bros progressive front springs. It made a big difference and didnt break the bank! I have mine on mid perch now, the low perch was higher than stock springs on low perch and nice and soft over small stuff, but i felt the ride was a...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Picked up a set of National SD springs from a member here (Mil T) for a GREAT price. He went with the hd springs, but he's more hard core than I am. They were rusted from sitting out, so I wire wheeled them and shot them with a few coats of urethane black, going in this weekend :win: I already...

    Colorado Raptor owners, Need your help

    Can you expand a little on the Alpine loop? Which passes are involved? Towns/communities or unique areas that you go through? thanks

    Dirty Deeds Exhaust

    I've been eyeballing the Hemholtz resonator for awhile now. Questions; Does the whole exhaust system add any noticable power/mileage gain over stock? Gotta be less back pressure than OEM. I dont want much noise, unless I get on it (Im a stereo guy too). So how big of a muffler can I get on...

    Sadly, no. Not any Raptor groups I know of in the Phoenix area, but there are some forum members here. Its pretty damned hot in the desert during the summer and prime time is fast coming to an end. But Im up for something if anyone else wants to put together a good run this summer, maybe in the...

    Colorado Raptor owners, Need your help

    Howdy from Az, Im planning to go to Denver this summer to visit my kids (no date set yet) and want to get in some off road trips in the Ouray area on the way there. I've always wanted to do it but am finally getting the opportunity. I've been through Silverton to Durango many years ago in a car...

    I usually check the garage sale section of FRF for deals and have found some good ones. But I dont do Facebook, the wife does. Any specific Raptor parts pages I can check on her FB account?

    Thanks all, I'll be on the lookout for a used or scratch & dent rear bumper too (just cant justify $1500 for new). I forgot how flimsy the stock bumpers are, especially the rear bumper.

    Transformation

    This past weekend, i finished my ADD bumper install & color change. I got a Venom front bumper from ADD's scratch & dent lot and decided to have it powder coated silver to match the truck. Then I decided to go for it and paint the flares & rear bumper to match. My truck went from this...

    New raptor owner

    Audio & sound deadening was my first priority. Then went with suspension mods (work still in progress). Fair warning; the upgrade bug is very contagious with the side effect of wallet deprivation!

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Driving a parted out Raptor for a few days :crazy: Actually I picked up a scratch & dent ADD Venom front bumper. So, I decided to get it powder coated silver (close match to Ingot silver). Then i decided to pull of the flares & rear bumper to paint them silver too. Just picked up the bumper...
