Hey everyone FNG here...I just purchased my new to me 2018 Raptor with 40k miles back in December. Found this very informative forum and Happy to be part of the Raptor community.
Anyway I've been doing some research and trying to figure out if the wheels on my Raptor are actual beadlocks I know ford makes the capable beadlocks but I haven't seen any set-up like mine...plus the tire looks wider then a standard Raptor tire. I'll post a pic if anyone can confirm it would be great.
Previous owner was the Ford dealers son. Also if these are the real deal does anyone know what the Torque specs are for these or where I can find the maintenance requirements on them. Never owned beadlocks. I had a fully built Jeep Wrangler last 12 years but never got the beadlocks for that either.
Thanks in advance.
Not sure on OEM but most aftermarket beadlock wheels are between 16-25lbs (Raceline 16-18lbs & Method 20-25lbs). Crazy that Ford is 48ft lbs). Both companires recommend a re-torque every 200-500 miles. You could probably check them every 500-1000. I think most companies are just covering their a$$e$ when they say 200. This really is the biggest downside to beadlocks on a street driven vehicle (especially if it's a daily driver). If you're driving 100+ miles per week you probably should be checking them once a month.
