I will also confirm it is tied to speed limiter.. After removing the limiter on my Raptor, the rear diff stayed locked @ 116mph..
However, I strongly suggest not pushing the 3 ton pig at those speeds for extended periods of time..

Any greater than -6mm offset and you will have issues in the long run. I am saying this from personal (expensive, not covered under warranty) experience (17x10 -12mm)..
Just like top perch (leveling kit) once the front is lifted above 26.5" (measured from center of wheel to fender lip) on...
Over spray is good... I made the mistake on the rear of being too careful and only had light overspray. It was a lot harder to get it to peel off in one piece like the front with heavy over spray..

Just a little heads up.. Anyone using it on their front bumper, grill, etc...

Every pound of rotating weight is equal to 7-9 pounds of in car weight. For example, if you have a wheel that weighs 2 lbs. more then your competitors x 4 wheels, your car believes it has an extra 70+ pounds in the seat.
Also the overall weight of the tires have a greater effect on rotational...
I am sold on duratracs...
2 years at TRR
Snoball 500
Bullrun
Missouri mud and snow
They have served me well over last 33,000 miles. The main thing to remember the Raptor is a heavy ass truck. You do not float over the mud, you dig and power yourself through it. With the Raptor and Duratracs in...
Working on it now... I have a set of them, i was planning on testing them on the Bullrun. I did not receive them until after i returned home.
I will get them mounted for everyone to see!

I wasn't forgetting Snoball 500, at that time I was still set 24" or so. It was not until I received new nationals, I raised front to 26.5"...

You are talking about two different things..
Adjustability of UCA allows more adjustment in alignment (camber/caster). Once you go to mid/upper perch heights is sometime necessary.
Adjustment of preload/ride height is done through the adjusting the ICON coilovers. On 2012 and up you do not want...
Livernois said they can get a reliable 620-700hp out of supercharged 6.6l..
Had one laser save, several false laser hits from sun reflecting off objects, and some hid lights..

That is what I am kicking around.. First is trying to get the beast up to speed.. The Raptor is a great rally car... Brakes, and hp are the only things it is lacking.
It might come down to, it costs "x" amount for the raptor and "x" amount for sho.. If it is close, then Raptor, but if it is...
After the fact I realized had 3 handles of alcohol in the bed.. After about 15 laps or so, it was shaken and not stirred! Every bottle broke except the Jack bottle!

Short course and slick as hell! Couldnt get out of 1-2.. No matter what mode I put it in (4wd, off road, traction control on/off, locker locked/unlocked) it pushed bad through corners.. Still one hell of a good time!

The oil around threads is because of me fumbling the catch can when trying to take a picture..
As far as oil analysis i have base line before jlt, and I am going to see if there is a difference between with and without..
-Greg (aka squatting dog)
I was very surprised also.. It makes sense running at constant high speed produces less blow by verses on and off the throttle of driving off road.

Okay, here is the review a lot of people have been waiting for....
After 5000+ miles with 3500 being at high speed (116 mph max), tail of the dragon, big nasty mud run, and at least 1000 miles at 85 mph+ through 21 states and two Canadian provinces in 10 days.
Everything still firmly...
