Broken tie rods

you are witnessing the limitations of IFS in this video.

My solid axle CJ7 couldn't do 90 miles an hour down a fire road, that's for sure....

That wasn’t a TRX. It was a ZR2, and it spanked his 37 Raptor from a roll. Which I definitely did not expect.

Lol oops my bad ! you are right ,its a ZR2 but you do have to consider all the extra weight in the Raptor ,tires, and drag from the kc lites... that was my point. Was not a fair race .

It’s a couple of tires, you act as though he was towing a loaded horse trailer. And those KC lights don’t make a difference at such low speed (below 100mph) roll races. Stop making excuses.

Stock Raptors are slow. Stock Raptors on 37’s are even slower. That’s why we have @GooseTuned

Lol! A stock Raptor is still faster than a Silverado ZR2 .Only lost that race because of the added weight of the aftermarket parts ,tires , and passenger. Its not rocket science.
The only thing slow here is you my friend.

running muds, which will kill acceleration. this guy lives in the West Chester PA area. I hate him with a passion.

A video of a ZR2 vs Raptor I think was done by TFL and the Raptor spanked it. Raptor is the second fastest truck out there for offroad models. Third I guess with the R now.

Ok just watched again. This guy clearly has very little experience as indicated by flooring the throttle while in 4low on an obstacle. Its a one way ticket to snapping driveline and or orther suspension components . Probably would have snapped a shaft if it was a solid front rig. Opening scene with the adolescent medium shirt , pitbull rockers and aviators is an immediate red flag…Pegs the ****** meter. im jealous honestly i wish i had the cash to not care about a beautiful rig like the code orange in the vid.

Since this is the “R” forum, I don’t think anyone has broken them…

Non R stuff doesn’t belong here… move the threads over to non-R for these things

For an actual Raptor R drag race we of course have this:

Raptor R is stronger in a rolling start. Anyway, I got morbidly curious and watched a little bit of those broken Raptor videos. Yeah, it says something when the reviewers make it a point to sling insults at Ford owners in general. They're outright proud of their bias. I had to feel bad for that Raptor 37 being bought by someone for the purpose of hating and abusing it.
