Not today, finished it last week before I went in for my ankle op after a test drive and day out on that bike… just wasn’t sure what to do or how to manage the pics. o_O:D

Hopefully this link will work… Raptor TLC Time

If not let me know and I’ll set it to public… should be ok with the link though.

100k miles / 167k km actual service… plugs, leads and coils, PCV valve change, throttle body cleaned, MAF cleaned, coolant flush, power steering flush and brake fluid flush including ABS service bleed in Forscan (surprising how much extra dirty fluid it shifts… worth doing either way. Good once all over everywhere.

Wheels have been a state for ages, got them refurbed at a local specialist in evo grey. Look amazing now. The truck was covered in white wax marks on every non-painted panel, plus some of the graphics faded, both since I got it. Spent another two days detailing it inside and out. Whole truck looks mint now.

Goes and sounds great too, early indications is that it’s guzzling less fuel for changing the plugs (21.5>20.0L/100km) but still on first tank of fuel. Buzzing with how it turned out though. Worth nearly killing myself in the 40°C++ high humidity days of the UAE summer. :flamingdevil::flame::Big Laugh:

Teaser before and after pic below…

Found a little chunk of tire about to break off my Hankook Dynapro ATMs. I somehow got 42K miles out of them and they are still pretty quiet with 6 /32s left. Awesome all around tire.

Its time for 37s and need to narrow it down. Load C would be fine if I tow the Bronco once a year? Can I do better than the Gen 3 KO?

My last few parts for the rear end rebuild should be here today. I originally ordered everything on the 4th, with most of the deliveries pending about a week out. But a few parts shipped from California to Iowa, got lost in the sauce for like a week, then showed up in New Hampshire like 3 or 4 days ago, chilled there for a day then went to Boston for a day then Atlanta for a day before finally making their way to Florida. Looking to have the truck back out on the road by Tuesday next week. Got some more [camping gear] on the way and a planned trip to Ocala. Also scouring FB marketplace to see if I cant pick up a dual sport or regular old dirt bike before then.
