Rubbed Permatex Anti-Seize 81343 on every bolt. Was able to use my Makita Power Drive on setting 2 to install all of the bolts. The lub clearly helped. Did all 4 wheels in 1 hour. I'll find out how well it works in April when I swap my studded tires for my BFG KO2
Is this when trying to remove the tire while the ring is on? Neither Les Schwab nor Discount will touch the rigs so that is why I removed them myself and will re-install. Not many tire shop options where I live
I plan to dab on some Anti-Seize and start by hand, then use my cordless impact drive on low, then use my torque wrench to set them all uniformly. Tires getting installed Monday so I'll be doing this Monday afternoon
ok .. that will save some time. it took about 20 minutes to remove all of them from 4 wheels. hopefully the cross-threaded bolts can be re-installed. they were a PITA to back-out
I have the OEM wheels that came with the 37PP. Still using the original BFG All Terrain KO2 37x12.5x17LT 116S and during winter (Nov thru April), I use Studded General Grabber A/TX 37x12.5x17LT 124R D2.
The old-school independent tire shop closed in my town this year and I learned that the big...
I have read there is a potential problem with the some of the chemicals in octane boosters and ford's exhaust/catalytic system so I am sticking to 91 and when I am in CN, 93
unfortunately the closest e85 gas station is 600 miles. To get 93 octane, I have to drive 2 hrs and cross into Canada so I only get it when up there on a trip
Don't think the injectors will add anything with 91
Recently got the Goose Tuned Gen3 2021-2022 Raptor Stg1/Stg 2 Tuning Package with COBB TCM. @GooseTuned has been great to work with. had to drive 30 minutes to find a straight, flat road to do the logging. Truck is noticable quicker with the 91 octane tune. Will be in Canada in 5 weeks so...
FWIW I have a similar problem in Sport mode w/ no Accessport. I just installed my Accessport and will get my initial 2 logs to Goosetuned tomorrow. I also ordered the transmission tune from him with the expectation that it could address the shifting issue in Sport mode.
@Bob Sacamano
are you liking the dragy? was thinking of getting one to compare my stock setup to my soon-to-happen tune. only 91octane around here so it will only be a accessport+tran tune but curious how the horsepower/torque increase translates into 0-60 and 40-60, 60-80+ times
@GooseTuned is the 10amp charger still necessary for the accessport install?
sending in my ECU today - removal was very straightforward due to the helpful videos from you and Cobb
Just placed order for Stage 1 for 2021 37PP. Seldom gets above 80 were I live and drive so no IC. Looking forward to getting improved acceleration and shifting under full-throttle
@Gary Gere . I also live in WTF but unlike you, I primarily use Safeway 91 octane w/ 10% ethanol. Zero catalytic issues and have 14k on my 2021. I only use the 91 octane from Town Pump or Alpine for my snowthrower.
Hi Winfield .. was watching your "2021 Gen 3 Raptor Stage 2 ..." video and at the end, you showed stats for Stage 1, 91Oct vs Stage 2, 91Oct. I guess somewhere buried in 92 pages of posts there might be the actual dyno charts comparing these two but wondering if you could post them (again)?
I...
@GooseTuned .. I've been look at various tuning options and the correspodning dynos for a Gen 3, 91 octane. I live in MT and there is no 93 or E85. As a comparison, HammerBuilt shows more increase around 3400rpm whereas your tuning has the increase starting at approx 3700.
I am curious why you...
I've been looking at a variety of tuning options. In Montana, I am limited to 91 Octane .. no 93 or e85. Ford also specifically restricts/warns about octane boosters using MMT
From what I know about dyno-tuning, the ambient temp & humidity can have an impact on results as well as inconsistency...
Upin startup, my '21 will ask if I want to continue to use the Drive Mode if it is anything other then normal. ex. SLippery, Sport, etc
When in Normal Drive Mode, I can use the Exhaust button on the steering wheel to change the exhaust mode to any mode including Baja. This is not remebered...
