What did u do to your raptor today?

I want to see how the exhaust got there without wrapping under the frame..... (unless you hack through the bed and go over it)? I've got the MBRP dual tip exhaust on my '12 ecoboost and it has to hang under the frame rail to exit in front of the wheel. I wouldn't do that for a serious offroad truck because eventually you will crush the tubes against the frame or tear them off; both are unacceptable risks.

Not everyone cooks their fluid between brake jobs. but I get your point. thanks for the input.

As far as the last bit...I am aware of how to bleed brakes.

Not sure if your intention was to condescend but it sounds a bit that way. Either way, no offense taken thanks.

quick edit. In order to avoid a back and forth, I wanted to clarify that I wasnt implying that you were wrong in my comment just now.
The original comment that you quoted was directed at the every day driver which id assume is common here, and its obvious that you are not and thats ok. When it comes to racing which it sounds like you do, maintenance is a bit different and I understand that.
Anyhow, thanks for your comment. I'll probably just keep my mouth shut next time instead of trying to provide guidance when I dont know my intended audience!

Sorry for coming off as an ******, I've been told that I have no tact. I was just trying to explain that the fluid in the caliper will remain there as the pads wear and go through many heat cycles during the life of the pads.

Thanks for clarity, I totally agree and I bleed my brakes many times throughout pad changes albiet likely not as often as someone who drives much harder!

Edit..I too have been told I have to tact in certain situations...usually anything out in public

cheers

Tact is WAYYYYY overrated!

This is how the hidden captured bolts go on the KHC coil buckets. Photos vs "instructions provided". You'll need to find the smallest child in your village to actually reach inside the frame pivot box and hold the bolt in place to start threading the nut.

How do you like their transmission tune? If there is one.

The first few miles was noticeably rough (not bad) by the time i was at work (30 min) it smoothed out a lot. The transmission had to relearn how i drive. And it shifts quicker and seems to be great so far.

-its also single digit degrees outside if makes any difference LOL

That is how my Raptor is with the Livernois 91, shifts quicker and firmer. On a hot summer day it will bark these big ole treads in three gears.

Nice. Is it a SC or NA rap?
