Anything to prepare for the battery? My raptor has never experienced this kind of cold. Works fine now, less than a year. I was planning on bringing my mobile battery jump starter and charge it each night, just incase....

I'll have a set of 6 gauge jump leads if anyone needs a jump, they don't take much space so I never leave home without them.

Yeah, you'll be fine. Remember, there's a bunch of us around if something bad happens.

It's Michigan, not a 6 month long expedition trip through the Antarctic to the South Pole...your battery will be fine. Many cars survive the UP winters on a daily basis...

And if it dies, there's enough people around to jump start you...we're good like that.

Can't wait for those to be done. Hopefully before TRR.


I would love to go to TRR in April it would be a nice birthday present to myself. Boss already warned me about taking off this summer. I need to start working for myself and write off my trips.

Your gonna have your hands full for a couple days. Did you buy the second shock also. I wish I could put them next to mine RPG and look at the differences.

Liking your choice of color. I have the following all laid out ready to install tomorrow:

* UCA
* LCA
* New Knuckles
* Upper shock mounts
* LCA mount doubler plates and cam kit
* Icon 3.0 Coilovers
* Icon 3.0 secondary bypass


I'm heading to the shop just after 6 via HD to rent a kerosene heater and hope to be finished by 10pm. First order of business will be minimal disassembly to get the welding done. After that just time to swap parts.
