What did u do to your raptor today?

[John813]

2016 was a good year.

All new fluids for Diffs, trans, power steering, transfer case, bigger pans for trans and diff, Rogue Racing bumpers and K02s.

2017 will start off with Mid perch(finally) and Method Mesh wheels.

Skip mid and get some 3.0's!

Been debating that.

Might end up just doing both. Mid perch now, 3.0's before the end of 2017.

Here I was thinking buying a Raptor would cut down on the modding addiction, compared to my previous Fords. lol it's worse.

NOT. A. CHANCE.


It's incredible how much better we can keep making them, with money.

Well, the shop got the diff cover on but at the same time figured what the grinding was. Bad pinion bearing and busted transfer case. C'mon 2017

Looked at buying a spare set of tires. Found some local on Craigslist. What do you guys think?



Said one has dry rot. $100 for 4 (3 if the one is scrapped)

I think he's trying to make the tread seem bigger with a dime.

Agree. Had to throw some calipers on a dime to determine tread. Seems like it's anywhere between 6/32 and 7/32.

Thinking of picking up so I don't trash brand new ones.

Got a bunch of goodies to install and set up. Lucked out and found a new local gun shop/military surplus nearby and picked up 2x30mm and 2x40mm ammo cans. Guy was so happy I took them he only charged me for the 2x40mm ones and threw in the 2 bigger 30mm ones for free! Going to mount the 40mm ones over the wheel well humps along my e-tracks. Going to mount the larger 30mm ones in the box on the driver side rear corner, and move my fire extinguisher mount onto the e-track as well, I think. Was very happy I could fit my 30' Big Bubba Rope, regular tow strap and 2 d-rings inside one 30mm ammo can. Vince's Method centre caps came in Wednesday so I have to get them on too so I guess it is time to rotate the wheels. Picked up and installed a set of Bosch Icon wipers and got some amber reflective tape to put in the fender vents to hopefully make the lights show up more. Also got a set of used HD Staun tire deflators that I have to get set up for around 26lbs for the next off-road run, whenever that is. Also picked up a set of used Gatorbak mud flaps to replace my Vortex mud flaps, only came with 2 rear and 1 front but will look around for another set of front ones in a Raptor/Ford/plain black plate on them.

Replaced my old chinese LED pods with some Bajadesign Squadron Pro & Racer series. Smaller but three times brighter, and a little more expensive

Thanks again @ Bailey from @Baja Designs for their great customer service !
