What did u do to your raptor today?

Lol I'm aware, but I was on the fence with them anyways, but I'm glad I got the DS.

Smart girl recognizing that the DS's where the best choice....she's a keeper!

I (in my white raptor) saw and waved at another raptor (which happened to be a black raptor)...and he waved back at me....I guess racism is dead...at the very least in Colorado....maybe it is the weed who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ before I get hate mail know that this is a joke....it is the new year so lighten up! It is kinda early in the year to already be offended

Replaced all the old tape on the underside of the rockers which was all falling off or missing already!! Cleaned the area and installed gorilla tape over all the holes. Guys please check your trucks, don't be lazy, I left it too long, thinking I was one of the chosen ones by ford that had better tape, not true!! The tape wasn't even over the holes in some areas from the factory. 10 minute job at the max to replace both sides.

I did that before the snow came just to be safe, especially since some was just starting to peel. Bought a big role of Gorilla tape just for the truck.

Finally joined the methods club! Wrapped in Toyo RT rubbers. Got Vince's caps coming soon to complete the package. View attachment 72058View attachment 72059View attachment 72061

Give us a review on how those RTs perform. I was debating between these and the Cooper STT Pros and ended up with the Coopers. Not a bad choice, just wondering how the other option is.

Finally got around to getting my 37" ko2 mounted up. They've only been staring at me in the shop for about a month.

What material did you use for your dovetail edge?

What material did you use for your dovetail edge?

Just standard automotive edge stripping. I used some black sealeant before install so it sealed the raw metal and also keeps it in place, but it pretty much just clamps right on.

What tape?

 

[CoronaRaptor]

Tape like this which is suppose to be covering the holes on the underside of the rockers but isn't even put in the right spot

What tape?

 

[CoronaRaptor]

Here is the same area with new tape installed, there are about 8 holes on each side of the truck under the rockers where the running boards bolt on.
