Deavers didn't fix my axle hop. Just broke 2nd drive shaft:(

When ya play ya gotta pay. This will be an problem you will be dealing with the entire time you have the truck. Big HP and TQ are hard on the power train period, deal with and accept that fact. Dealt with it for 20 year with oil burners that were running a lot more power than what we can get out of the Raptor...

Not to be harsh but it is just a fact..

I didn't post on here to get sympathy. I was looking for solutions to my problem. If I wanted sympathy, I would have called my mom.

Luckily not everyone on here is a hater like you and I actually got lots of great answers. I appreciate everyone that took time to post their ideas on how to fix my issue. Ford is going to warranty the tranny and I should have the truck back next week. As soon as I get the truck back I will be addressing the wheel hop issue. When it's fixed, I'll be sure to get a pic of my raptor doing a vicious burnout.

As for my lead foot..... I'll never change. I just keep the throttle wide open cause that's how I roll. All or nothing. If it breaks, I'll just rebuild it better than before. Thanks again for all your great solutions.

Man that is awesome that Ford is standing by the warranty on your tranny, Best of luck to you on your driveshafts

Not beng a hater at all----Ford is not the solution to your problems the aftermarket is. Everytime you fix one thing it moves to the next weakest point. Trick is to anticipate what that is. Good Luck. Maybe your Mom can help you lol.....

Been where you are done that many times---hell the Boss Hoss with the 540 Shafiroff built specifically for my bike showed me that nothing can be built bullet proof (drive train) but it can be improved upon. Pretty much forget about a single solution here because it is going to be a combination of things many have been mentioned.

Good Luck.

Maybe you should read my whole post again before you comment. Obviously ford not going to solve my wheel hop. They are just going to fix the tranny. I posted this thread to find answers on how to fix my problem. You have posted on here twice and neither time have you offered up an intelligent solution. Thanks to everyone who actually tried to help me with my problem. Everyone else can just keep your useless comments to yourself.

I just call 'em like I see them. Don't like it, don't read it. Someone else may consider that a vehicle as AWESOME as the Raptor should be improved but NOT ABUSED!

With that attitude you probably won't last very long here. Especially if you fail to realize how much knowledge and experience is here, Boss Hoss has had several Oil Burners with much more power than you have. If you chat with him he might be able to help you with some of the things he had to replace as well.

If I can't pin the throttle off the line without it breaking, it's a piece of s**t. I don't think that half throttle is awesome at all. It's like putting in just the tip. There is a way to fix this and I will find it.

The whole point of this thread and forum for that matter, was to find ways to improve the truck. If guys like me don't push the truck to the limit then the truck will never get better. All I have left to say to you sir is: you're welcome.
