What did u do to your raptor today?

I changed states with my registration and it was not as expensive as I expected because I waited until the new year, which means my truck is a year older and apparently a lot less valuable. I’m thankful. And when I renew it will only be fees. Now I’m waiting for my actual tag. View attachment 443039

I'm not looking forward to paying property taxes when we move back to SC.

Is this right? This doesn’t look right. I know theres a sandwich of spacers/shims involved but it just looks wrong to me.
And i guess how would one correct this strut alignment
That exposed bolt on the left looks crooked…

Yea, me and @V1ROTATE were comparing buckets. Mine looks like the bolt is touching the bucket going under the shim. Going to check when I get home for sure.

and @WNCHSTR96 I guess im more concerned with how the left most bolt looks bent and in contact with the bucket.
I have a clunk noise and I compared both sides last night, seeing they looked the same. Then I got to looking at the picture and noticed that bolt was funky.

In that case you may have your spring off center then it twisted a little when it was put up in the bucket. I’m not sure how to check for that though.

I see what you are saying, hard to really tell for sure with the picture. Maybe look at more closely and see if you can see it's bent.
