Hello from McKinney TX

[Gofastrob]

OK, So I recently bought a 2011 CPO Raptor. Just wanted something that was fun to drive, looks good, and could pull the boat and motorcycle trailer.

I have this slight addiction to things with motors, so this purchase ended up being more than I had originally planned. ( just a truck to pull the trailer )

Anyway, first order of business. It needs to sound like a truck. So I had a flow master 70 series, I think installed. Tips are tucked up out of the way. Not in a "Crush" zone. Sounds better, not overly loud. No drone that I'm aware of.

Second option was slightly bigger wheels and tires. I went with Ballistic Jester's 20" with Toyo MT 37.5 X 13.5 tires. Talk about looking before you leap....Anyway, to make things fit.

I am now on the top mount up front, with some trimming of metal too. 35's may have been a wiser choice, but I really like the look of the 37's.

I plan on getting UCA's and probably getting fenders too.

Now you see my problem. For a truck that was supposed to just pull the trailers....to a truck that is seriously munching on the wallet.

Still, love the truck. More mods to come.

Thanks Rob

Welcome! 37's look great! Glass fenders will definitely help. You might check with the TMX guys. They are doing installs right there in McKinney
