    2013 Baja 500 trip

    No, we were going with the traffic. Maybe I should call it west-ish. I'm not really into going on the course, but with one spare left and darkness coming I opted to get out ASAP. We watched for traffic religiously. During the time we were on the course we were passed by 10 cars, 4 of which we...

    2013 Baja 500 trip

    We decided to head down to Baja this weekend for the Score Baja 500. We saw at least 20 Raptors, plus many Raptor bodied race trucks. The weather was warm inland, about 100F and much cooler on the coast. We started at Ojos Negros, then we drove towards Valley De Trinidad, spectating along the...

    Bfg stocker vs Bfg 37 vs Toyo 37

    I've seen quite a few Raptors successfully running 37's with stock fenders, most of those are running the stock wheels. I think wheel offset and tire width (13.5 for Toyo) are the deciding factors for 37" tire clearance.

    Other uses for an Icom radio?

    You can use it to monitor police, fire, and other services that operate on frequencies the radio receives. You have to know the frequencies and program them in advance though. I had a Kenwood 271a before my icom, I could tune in any frequency on the radio itself, I kind of miss that.

    2014 Ford Hennessey VelociRaptor SUV First Look

    I'm not sure why so many comments associate this truck with street queen status. The old Ford Bronco was built on the same chassis as the F150, and was a formidable desert prerunner. The last Bronco was built in 96, yet they still have s strong presence in the desert community. Sure, they are...

    FRF help! Judge, Jury, & Executioner

    I'm going to send the buyer the money for the repair, it's up to him to decide if he will fix or replace the ring. Even if buying a new ring is cheaper, there might be shipping/Paypal fees etc, I just want to be done with this- he can keep the change.

    FRF help! Judge, Jury, & Executioner

    I appreciate everyone's input on this, but I don't think we need a poll to determine what the right course of action is here. I will pay the purchaser for the cost of repairing the wheel, $155.34, based on the estimate he provided me. I failed to inspect my merchandise, and that is my fault...

    FRF help! Judge, Jury, & Executioner

    For the record, I had no intention of "Outing" you in this matter. I appreciate that you have released the claim with Paypal, and I would like to say that I did receive a PDF of a repair estimate for $155.34 from a business located near the buyer. I'm still at my offer to pay half of the repair...

    FRF help! Judge, Jury, & Executioner

    Given the deal on the wheels and how I use my Raptor, I honestly think I would touch them up and move on- that's just me. This member has a new 2013 Roush truck, I can see that he would want it perfect in every way. This member negotiated endlessly on price and payment method, yet didn't even...

    Stadium Super Trucks LA

    That was a great race last night, my group really enjoyed it. I was apprehensive with the monster trucks, asphalt, and metal jumps, but it was really exciting! I'm sure Robby will fine tune the event over time and it will only get better.

    ford raptor bead lock wheels legal in any state in USA?

    It looks like the Ford beadlock has a dual lip. When the tire is mounted traditionally, it's inside the outer mounting lip of the wheel, and the standard ring is only a simulated beadlock ring. When the tire is mounted as a beadlock, the outer lip of the tire is outside of the wheel lip and the...

    ford raptor bead lock wheels legal in any state in USA?

    Cops would sometimes write a ticket for bead locks here in SoCal, but that was15 years ago. There are so many fake locks now, I think they gave up.
