    Oil catch can needed for Gen 2's?

    So, I have owned my '18 Raptor for almost two months now and like most of you I suspect, plan on keeping my truck for a long time. However, I am still a little confused and am hoping that some of you seasoned veterans can not only help me understand, but educate me about the benefit of a catch...

    Raptor Overland

    Ok, thanks. It appears CJ Pony carries the wheels. Maybe I just need to pony up (no pun intended) and ship my Raptor to ADD.

    Raptor Overland

    Looks amazing, and congrats! I hope you don't mind, but I am going to copy your wheel and tire setup. Oh, I think I may order the drawers as well. I assume those are 37" Toyo's? And, are the Rotiforms 6X5.5 or 6X135? Again, well done! Dang I wish I lived closer to ADD.

    Hit 36,000 Miles today

    That is freakin' awesome! Can you provide more feedback as unixadm has requested? Curious to know how it's holding up after being treated the way it's supposed to. Merry Christmas to you and that beast of machine.

    Ford Performance rear diff cover

    Great insight and who knows if the cover really makes any difference. Honestly, in my humble opinion, I think the fluid you put in the differential is more important than the cover itself. Therefore, I have 4 quarts of Amsoil waiting to be inserted. Regarding the FP cover, if CJ Pony...

    Ford Performance rear diff cover

    I paid $209 shipped. So, the spicer after shipping probably comes out to almost $40 which is worth it to me as the FP stamp is worth at least 10hp. Also, the FP cover eliminates case distortion and ring gear and bearing cap deflection while improving support. Now, I don't know what that...

    Ford Performance rear diff cover

    True, but for an extra $40, I like the Ford Performance stamp rather than Spicer :) ---------- Post added at 03:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:16 PM ---------- Not saying that it can't rust, but man this thing is powder coated and seems as durable as a tank. I simply like the...

    Ford Performance rear diff cover

    Awesome, and thanks for the heads up. Just ordered the gasket. I have never heard of lubelocker, but I am impressed with the reviews. The gasket that came with my FP rear diff cover is paper thin and flimsy. The lubelocker seems to be a much better alternative. Question: torque specs...

    Ford Performance rear diff cover

    I looked at the aFe and Mag Hytec but ultimately decided on the Ford Performance simply because I wanted cast iron compared to aluminum. It's just a personal preference, and I really like the looks of it. I am throwing 3.5 qts of Amsoil in that puppy!

    Ford Performance rear diff cover

    Santa came early today and delivered this beauty. Can't wait to install. Edit: Installed, and am very impressed. Holds 1/2 quart more than factory and is built like a tank. The lubelocker is a must for those thinking of changing your diff. I am confident this mod give me at least 5 extra hp...

    Installed Bakflip MX4 - love this thing

    I got it for exactly $719.84 shipped, which only took two days to receive. I just started chatting with an online rep on their website and talked him down, which he guaranteed me was his best price: Hello Steven Phillips, Thank you for your order from BAKFlip.com. Once your package...

    Installed Bakflip MX4 - love this thing

    I know there was a thread recently about which bed cover is your favorite and I remember this one was excluded. However, I just installed the Bakflip MX4 yesterday and wow do I love this thing! I think all bed covers are overpriced, however I was able to talk the sales rep at Bakflip down to...

    New Mass Raptor Owner...any dealers out of state with no markups?

    Call Mike at Lebanon Ford in New Hampshire. I purchased my '18 for $2k under sticker, and they just recently sold their '17 for $2300 under sticker. If they have an allocation, I am confident they will let you have it for at least $2k under. I realize it's a few hours away, but maybe it's...

    How Necessary is the Torsen From Dif?

    I don't understand the science behind it, but I guess I would rather have it and potentially not need it rather than need it and not have it. So, I am glad my 802A came with it.

    Pedal Commander! Awesomeness!

    I have had the PC on my '18 for only 3 weeks, and so far no issues. I have not read all 67 pages of this thread, but other than Cory, has anyone else had any issues with the PC? This is my first Ford in almost 20 years, much less my first Raptor, and am slowly learning as I go. So, should I...

    GEN 2 Who is interested in a Whipple Stage 1 Group Buy?

    Todd, have you mentioned a second group buy to them? I barely missed this as I was in the 50's on the list, and when I recently spoke to Whipple, they did pull 4 from the extra's list. However, I had no luck in convincing him to honor the price for those of us that were not in the 45.
