At some point when I get done modding my raptor, I'd like to get some paint work done. Just to clean up 10 years of being a road warrior. Would that be called more of paint correction or would it make more sense just to spray the same color of paint? Not sure what to ask the local body shops.
Truck has 101K. New alternator was installed when I put in the 6.6L. So the alternator has around 16K on it. Unfortunately, it's under a whipple, so not easy to change out. Is the voltage regulator inside of the alternator? O'Reilly's has a way to test alternators that are installed I do...
At what voltage does the PCM kick on the battery warning? I was driving on highway at 65 mph and the battery light on the dash came on. Very random. I grabbed by tuner real quick as it shows the current voltage in the "about" menu. I was around 12.55 or 12.60 volts. I did look again later...
I want/need to get a boost gauge in my 2014 Gen 1. I'm seeing that Autometer has a triple pod to go on the A-pillar as well as OZ GaugePods and Glowshift. Really I just need 1 gauge, but I don't want a AC vent mount.
What all gauges are you running? I know that I want boost, what else...
I'll post some pictures of this here in a week or so. I ran into the problem of RPG traction bars and adding a KHC bump stop kit. Two plates and not enough length on the pins on the bottom of the shocks to run both. I figured out that RPG has a replacement plate that has the strike plate made...
Yes. Locating pins on bottom of the deaver springs. So dirty strike plate is what I've been running for a while. That was RPG I think to where I could use factory bump stops with extension until I could foot the KHC kit. However, it does not use the locating pins on the bottom of it. What I...
I purchased a KHC rear bump stop kit. 1) They sent the kit without hardware. They're sending hardware via USPS priority mail. I kind of thought they would expedite since it was their screw up.
Anyways.
I have RPG traction bars on my truck. The shop I was at said the locating pins on the...
Anyone have any other ideas? I guess I could install a boost gauge, then just start pullying down until I hit the same #'s? Or in Forscan, do a log and look at peak manifold air pressure, then subtract the 14.79?
That calculator is more for figuring pulley sizes related to mechanical force. Like using pullies to lift an object but using different ratios to increase mechanical advantage. In my mind, that's like using a 2:1 ratio to get a 2X mechanical advantage. So a 100 pound load would require 50 lb...
With the 6.6L paired with whipple - There is a problem with the pulley/belt setup from Livernois, when running the 10%OD crank pulley. Whipple pulley is 2.875"
The problem, per Livernois - The angle of the belt when engaging the pullies due to the large crank pulley allows the belt to fly off...

Looks like $168 for rear cushion from FORD and $150 bottom cushion.

2014 SCREW - Has the heated/cooled seats. Driver seat was severely lacking on air flow. Removed the filter completely and that resulted in very little change. I read where one guy had said his plastic housing broke on his and dealer had to replace it. I found the blower motor assembly for...
If someone wanted a 3D printed box with potentiometer, toggle switch and male/female connectors, I could make one for you. It's cheap compared to new shocks or something, but connectors are $60ish, maybe $40 if I crimp the wires myself. Then whatever the cost of resistor, pot and toggle. Or...

Get a bag of popcorn, it goes on and on and on.
Post 487 is a good write up.
On the glove box, pull in on the sides to get the tabs not to catch so that you can drop it down. If you are looking at the glove box opening...
The wattage does not matter as there is very little amperage on the circuit. I'm using 1/2 Watt resistors. This can be done in less than 5 minutes. Order a pack of the 330W k-ohm resistors. Order a pack of 22 awg d-sub contacts. On amazon, the cheapest I could find was a 200 pack of...
I go to all of that trouble because I can, to be honest. I originally showed a 330 k-ohm resistor into the back side of the contacts after I soldered on a couple of male 22 awg contacts. That worked fine. Low 40's when 90+ outside.
Then I saw where the guy was selling a setup where he's...
Our trucks use multiple of the WPT1078 and mating connector WPT965. Does anyone have the cheap alternative cross to a different MFR? i found to where a person could buy the connectors and contacts, but that's still about $15 each. I made me a little resistor/potentiometer box to go inline at...
I have the 6.6L livernois motor with ATI 12% OD, E85, and whipple (2.875 pulley). I do have their 8 rib pulley setup as well.
My problem for the last year is that my serpentine belt jumps off under certain conditions. Usually that condition involves a quick hit of the throttle in 1st or 2nd...
