    2017 F-150 5.0 to Raptor build

    The reason I bring up my situation to the OP is that there are available actual Raptors out there that may work for you. It would be a win win for you. I get wanting the 5.0 8 cylinder but in the end the energy and parts to do this will escalate beyond what you can stomach and you still won’t...

    Wilwood Brake upgrade 6 piston fixed review

    A quick one! Wilwood all four corners saved me. It’s been 3 years and they are barely worn. I did 20” VR601 wheels to get the biggest set I could. Thanks Nick at Apollo. They match the wheel well mouldings. A buddy of mine did Alcons which do work but are dirty as hell and spit hot brake...

    2014 Downshift crash

    What happened to the 3 year 36k miles on repairs? My assumption was it would be covered throughout Ford and not just a random dealer. Sorry if this was said already but contact Ford satisfaction program. I think you said it ran out within days. Good luck.
