    Stereo Dual Battery - BMS Questions

    Do you all still do BIG Capacitors? Back in my day (early 90's) we would beef up the system with a 1 or 2 farad capacitor. Didn't require an isolator, but solved the problem with voltage drop when the bass was hitting hard.

    Ford B&O Replacment Amp?

    little sketchy on the power output. https://mobridge.us/wp-content/uploads/documents/K2/mObridge_K2_A2B_811_Ford_Amplifier_Manual_V7.pdf Says peak power draws 100 amps. Ohms law says 100 amps x 13 volts = 1,300 watts of power. Anything more then that and you pop the fuze. normally rms...

    Best replacement for OEM speakers...

    PREACH!!!!! 160 watts of clean power is way better then 6 watts of junk for any speaker. SQUARE WAVES kill speakers. you either know, or you don't know what a square wave is the B&O amp delivers maybe 7 watts of power to each speaker....and the sub amp is maybe 50 watts when I was doing my...

    Avoiding theft

    Honestly....I think I am done with the truck phase of my life. At this point, my wife wants me to keep it, so I keep it for her. And yes, having a truck is awesome for getting stuff done, but lets face it, the Raptor is only 50% truck when it comes to truck things like towing and hauling. I...

    Are there better options for pads and rotors then OEM?

    Same. Had them on for 4 days and 500 mixed miles. Did the break in process and the brakes just work. Don't feel any different than stock. Pedal feel is good. No noise. No vibrations.

    GEN 2 Can a Gen2 tow the StarCraft super light 262RL?

    THAT is still only about 400 pounds of tongue weight. Similar to what I towed (pulling a car trailer). He is talking maxing out the limit + 45 extra pounds on the tongue, double what a car trailer would be. 10,000+ pounds total. WAY over the specified limits of the truck

    GEN 2 Can a Gen2 tow the StarCraft super light 262RL?

    I would say HELL NO! I have towed with about 400 pounds on stick leaf springs and it was stable, but you can tell this truck is NOT designed for towing.
