Maybe this will help with all that chatter from the 37s....

Added butyl soundproofing with a foam layer on top of the inner skin as well. Took me all day to get the front doors done and I still have rear doors, roof, and back wall to do!

I ordered Moog swaybar links and Moog sway bar bushings

The oem swaybar links were tore up/worn out. Moog installed with no problem at all

When my buddy tried to install the swaybar bushings... They were too big... And not a direct fit. I cross checked moog website and rock auto website. The part number is correct
We ended up Not installing the swaybar bushings and put OEM back on.

Has anyone else had this issue with Moog? I will reach out to them tomorrow. I may have to order OEM

@RC51TOFUMAN
What's really strange is that on Fordparts website there are two listings for that bushing with the same part number but:

(-) SVT Bush | FordUS for $17.21
and
(+) SVT Bush | FordUS for $37.80

Also it does state on Moog's website that it is for the SVT Raptor
moog-k200846 | Front Sway Bar Bushing - 34mm | Ford F-150 2009-2014 (moog-suspension-parts.com)

On Advanced Auto it states does not fit the SVT Raptor
MOOG Stabilizer Bar Bushing Kit K200846: Advance Auto Parts
But this one does from Advanced:
Rare Parts Sway Bar Bushing RP22421: Advance Auto Parts

So someone is getting or giving incorrect info here.
And usually if it's low in price 9 out of 10 times it's not for the Raptor, we have "The Raptor Tax" don't forget. LOL


I would go to Ford Tasca parts.
Tascaparts has it with correct part# for the SVT
2010-2014 Ford F-150 Stabilizer Bar Bushing AL3Z-5484-A | TascaParts.com

And Rockauto shows out of stock for that one.

Let's know how it turns out. I am thinking to do the same.. too noisy on highway.

Soundskins just released a pre-cut door kit for 09-14 F150. I think it will work on raptor too. I will give them a try.

yes, that kit will work for Raptors as well. No difference in the door specs.

I managed to get all the doors done this weekend. Noticeable improvement in the sound quality and volume from the door speakers so far. I expect the road noise will reduce dramatically once I finish the cab. So far I can’t tell too much of a difference but haven’t had a chance to get on the highway either.

I’ll keep you posted as I continue to soundproof

Got the bubbles out!

Plus some bonus stuff I've done since I bought it last November: 2 pairs of squadron SAE fogs, bedside molle panels, tonneau cover, and a t slot for the bed rails. Rack coming soon.

Long over due so decided today to drop the running boards and brackets and clean and wax the bottom of the rocker panels. View media item 15725Just cant really clean and wax with the boards there.
View media item 15724All four brackets had stow away rocks and lots of sand.
View media item 15723Cleaned and two coats of wax.
View media item 15726All done and not looking forward to tackling again any time soon.

Took off the lens, cleaned all the crap off the mounting surface, and installed a new lens and o-ring. Hopefully no more moisture issues. I bought them used, it was there from day one of owning them. Finally got around to taking care of it.
