What did u do to your raptor today?

Fuel rail is off & drained. The injectors all seemed like they've never been pulled out. Gas looked & smelled normal, rubber hoses as well.

BTW, the injector clips are apparently not available new, and "lightly used" ones are priced to reflect that. Don't destroy them when you remove your injectors.

I got to speak with the nicest state trooper today. Happy Independence Day!

If you thought the wording for tint was funny on the ticket, this is what they call it on the payment website.

Thanks to all...

I bought the kayak saddles, they are for a regular roofrack. All of the other frame work I built. I made a front hoop mount out of aluminum that uses the forward box mount bolt. They are wide enough to still carry plywood if needed. The rear frame uses the bed extender threaded holes with a set of pins the index it to the extender pin holes. Install / removal is 4 R clips and 2 bolts. A couple of ratchet straps provide the X in the front hoop so it does not move.
I had used the clamps the kayak saddles came with, but before I paint it I am going to improve those. They don't grip good enough on the round tube.

Forgot to add... I still have access into the box from the back. The crossbar at the rear drops down to walk through and the front hoop can be folded down flat in the box if needed.

I’m a little late posting this because it was last month (May was the rear diff seal, canister purge valve and a coil pack.)

June was the crank shaft/torque converter seal, pinion seal, transmission mount, and valve body/lead frame all replaced.

Next month she sits while I travel then I’m thinking new shocks all around maybe for my birthday maybe for her 3 year purchase date.

I’m taking donations.

Pro Tip: always leave your exhaust bracket bolts in some random place so you cannot find the littke f ckers until after you've wasted an hour crawling around searching for them.

have you tried putting them in a place where you wont lose them? also, you ever going to drive this truck? or is it going to end up like my engine project and sit unfinished for years?

it's more a theory than a truck at this point.

It was a combination of running out of baggies to put them in while discovering the dogs ate all my sharpies.
