Any numbers on the springs? Looks like mid perch so probably not set for 37s. If stock springs front and rear, I would suggest dropping tire size to 35s.
I keep waiting to hear about a Ford lightning raptor, they're just so damn heavy with the batteries. I charge at home on a 240v 50amp line and never have range issues.Welcome!Sharp Raptor - gotta love a gen 1!
Your carbon emissions comment and Tesla sparked my brain (pun may or may not have been intended). I'm gonna get hate for this, I'm sure (but I really don't care, lol). I wouldn't mind an electric or hybrid Raptor. I'd certainly miss the exhaust sounds (although Ford did exhaust sound effects through the audio system for the electric Mustang, I think - not the same though). I do believe in climate change and I dislike the idea of pollution and tarnishing the landscape with oil drilling and all. One reason I haven't bought an electric vehicle is because I almost never see charging stations where I live and if I do, there's not enough of them. It's funny - I saw a Jeep commercial last night when watching a Die Hard movie and they had a charging station out in the desert with literally nothing else man made around it. So realistic...

Nice Gen 1. Good luck with the 5.4 truck.
Welcome and that’s a good looking Gen 1. You earned the right to blow some smoke and emissions out of the tail pipes. Keep your battery pack charged as well.
Actually the Lightning isn’t that heavy for a BEV truck. Have you checked the weight of a Hummer EV? A TRX is also quite heavy for an ice 1500 wide body.

Oh I forgot to ask y'all. I opened my sun roof on the first outing and half way open I thought, better make sure it closes. Well it doesn't and I got a burnt forehead outta it.
Was able to drop the headliner and manually close it with an alien key on the motor. Odd thing is it's not binding, just zero attempt to close at all. Curious if the button has gone bad, it maybe the forward/reverse contact. Anyone had the same symptoms?

The switch either works or it doesn't. Not only close part way.
I would check to see if there is something stuck in the track.

Might be a bad switch, if it doesn't send voltage to the motor. Try a voltage test at the motor and activate the switch. See if you are getting power and ground while operating the switch in both open and closed.
Power and ground.....plus and minus
You got both? Neither? One....let us know and diagnos it
