    2013 silver SCREW

    I do a lot of business with the dealership, so suffice to say it was a very good offer. I can put someone in touch with the right people if they're looking to buy it.

    First holes I think

    I almost went magnesium, but wouldn't be enough contrast with the terrain. They do look great in silver/blue

    First holes I think

    I just got my method hole matte blacks installed (posted in the "what did you do" thread too), and I haven't seen any others with this wheel, so I thought I'd share. I'm going to color the beadlock bolts and swap to black lugs, but all in all, very happy.

    Ready-lift 1.5" drop blocks - anyone have them

    Open to all options- The reading I did on running a drop block seemed to be the most economical and simple way to drop the rear down a bit.

    Ready-lift 1.5" drop blocks - anyone have them

    After reading the threads on dropping the rear with the ready-lift 1.5" drop block set, I've decided it's a great way to go. But $150 for a set of blocks is a little painful... does anyone have them around the shop or know a place to get them? I read a few folks who ran them then upgraded to...

    Light bar- base of windshield

    I was thinking the same thing- luckily this one has the full matte hood wrap graphics. I'm planning to use an el-cheapo bar as a proof of concept and go from there. Anyone have a set of no-drill hood mounts I can trade for the rigid fog light brackets? ---------- Post added at 05:20 PM...

    Light bar- base of windshield

    I'll work on getting a plan drawn up- it would be a curved bar that hugs the windshield line, and mounts to a similar mount like the SDHQ (most guys put duallies or light cannons on them)- if the hood clearance is there, I don't see why it wouldn't work.

    Light bar- base of windshield

    I've seen a couple trucks here and there with a bar mounted at the base of the windshield; thought it could be a good idea. I was considering using an SDHQ cowl mount and fabbing it to mount a 60" or something similar. Thoughts or experiences? main driver behind it is garage clearance, and...

    Lights- LEDs only from now on?

    Thanks for all the input- kinda what I was thinking. I asked because I was trying to sell a light bar here locally with 4 PIAAs and wasn't getting a lot of interest. But lots of LEDs around

    Confessions of a wheeler turned mall crawler

    I spent the better part of my 20s building, breaking, and wheeling a jeep TJ. We were out every weekend and lived by the mantra "if you're not getting stuck, you're not wheelin'." Fast forward a few years and I had the means to finally buy my dream truck- a brand spankin' new '13 Raptor. When I...

    Lights- LEDs only from now on?

    Admittedly, I have all LED on the truck now (some china copies, some rigid, all great). I notice most other raptors in the area are rocking light bars as well. Is there still any demand for the circular PIAA and KC lights we grew up on? Not a complaint, just seeing what the general consensus...

    Light Bars - simple but effective

    For the behind the grill, I bought cheapo 40" and drilled out 2 L brackets I had lying around.. it's the last light to be turned on and is just for some extra light. The rigids up front do most of the work.

    So far, the spots still remain, and what has been done: -Invisible glass -Vinegar -CLR -Razor blade -Clay bar -Steel wool We hit a test section with glass polish and a glass pad on a drill (didn't have the buffer on hand) The dealer is going to try to polish it.. if they still...

    Tuner / Warranty / Performance

    Thanks for all the insight- I'm going to get the 5*... just need to do some research for a good deal.

    Prepping for tune

    Of course- I was wondering if most tuners suggest pairing it with intake/exhaust.
