    Shock rebuild on Long Island

    I wanted to know if anyone knows of a good shop on Long Island to have the shocks rebuilt. I am on the east end and really don’t want to have to leave the island to bring them somewhere. I’d rather not have to send them out as I don’t want the downtime and really just want someplace I can drop...

    Aftermarket gauge question, aeroforce interceptor

    I'm getting ready to install a whipple kit in my 2014 raptor and want to install a couple gauges to keep an eye on things like AFR, intake air temps, and boost. I am currently leaning toward 2 aeroforce interceptor gauges in vent pods on either side of the steering wheel. I know the aeroforce...

    DIY Shady Tree Whipple Install Thread

    I know this is an old thread but is there any way to see the pics, the hosting site seems to have taken them down, getting ready for my whipple install, have it and kooks headers and full exhaust on order. Trying to decide if I wanna bite the bullet and get the SDHQ alternator now too.

    Boatec Fenders and offsets?

    I currently run on trails in the North east, definitely not everything that the raptor was intended to do, but I am taking a trip out west soon, and intend to start doing so more often and start pushing the truck harder. Do I NEED all this stuff? Probably not. Does any of us NEED a raptor...

    Boatec Fenders and offsets?

    I have a 2014 (52,000 miles on it so when warranty is up at 60,000 I'm starting some work), I know if you plan on offroading it just the mid perch with 37's wont cut it, you need to go with glass fenders (when I switch to 37's I also plan on adding some 3.0 shocks haven't decided which ones yet)...

    Boatec Fenders and offsets?

    I am considering going up to 37's, I know you need to hammer the pinch welds and go with glass fenders and everyone on here seems to suggest the boatecs. One question I have is regarding the offset, can i get away with using the stock OEM wheels or do I need to get a different wheel with a...

    Oil Pump gear necessary for supercharger install?

    I've been searching the forums trying to decide exactly what setup to go for a supercharger for my 2014 raptor as it is nearing the end of it's warranty. When I do the supercharger I will also do headers and a full exhaust. I was initially going to go with ARH because I've installed them in my...

    Moonroof?

    I've had my truck for about 4 months with only 5,000 miles on it and last week one morning I got in to drive to work. I had been raining all night and as I was turning off my street I noticed water dripping from the passenger grab handle. Then when I inspected closer the entire roof lining on...

    First time taking it offroad

    That's Smith's Point its 5 miles from the road to the end of the beach with the jetty. I didnt get the empire state pass before they stopped selling them for the summer this year (they dont sell them between May 1st and Labor day) so I wont be making it out to sore thumb at least until labor...

    Corrosion on Rear FOX shocks AARRGH....

    Damn, I just got my raptor and plan on using it mostly on the beach and towing my jet skis, so it will be seeing a lot of salt. Maybe I should try coating them with some spray silicone like I do to the engine compartment of my skis to try to prevent this?

    Got my new Raptor

    Well I picked up my raptor at the dealer 2 days ago and I gotta say it is great. It is exactly what I would have ordered except it has the bedside graphics, and I had planned on taking them off when I got the truck, now after seeing it I cant make up my mind on whether to keep them or not. Not...

    Removing bakflip F1

    I'm about to pick up my new raptor in a few days and I am definatly going to put on some sort of bed cover. I am currently leaning towards the bakflip F1 because I'm not a fan of soft covers but dont want a hard fiberglass cover either. I regularly remove my bed covers and put them back on, I...

    Graphics question

    Oh well, considering how late in the game I started looking and how its getting harder to find them I'm happy that I found one that it literally exactly what I would have ordered but only with the addition of the graphics(which I can take off). And while its not much the dealer did knock 700 off...

    Graphics question

    I only just starting looking for a raptor this week because I learned they were becoming hard to find and I was interested. Luck would have it that my local dealer is having one come in on May 3rd (its already being shipped from the factory) and it is exactly what I would have order with every...
