I tryed once with a 03 ford lightning that i had before this ford raptor.


How did you handle the potholes? It sounds like they are the reason behind your $20K endeavor to have a LT raptor.

My truck got screwed.
I was riding offroad to the rice farm on this dirt road, not even fast when the truck made a sudden stop without staring again.
Almost or even all the warings were shown on the dashboard.
Truck almost fit on the plataform.
Had to be taken to ford dealer

Probably one of those wiring harnesses that weren't secured when you were disassembling everything. That should be all it is. Might just be disconnected. Worst case scenario, it got caught in the suspension or wheel rubbed it and ripped wires...

Good luck

My guess? Wiring harness wasn't secured after the fenders. Swung and hit his hot manifolds and melted. It happened to a guy in the HARO group. Pretty easy fix if you're handy with solder and have some wire to fix it. Otherwise be prepared to pay for an entire new harness to get it fixed.

Yes, will be more rhan 1000$ on this. I broke a harness plug that was pretty tight

As well the harness on the strategy code was kind of bitten by the bottle reservoir from the shocks.
