What did you do to your Raptor today? (Gen2)

[rkwjunior]

When I called the manufacturer directly, he said they use this on lots of industrial equipment in the midwest where there is lots of exposure to Snow, high humidity, salt and mud, such as farming equipment, they do not re-apply, The coat the entire machine, including engine, paint, plastics, rubber and Electrical parts. I'd highly recommend you calling them directly or shoot them an email.

I may inquire. I live in the Northeast.
Having no garage and harsh winters, getting 10 years out of a vehicle is about the max.
I just bought a 17 with 29k and it looks great., think it was garaged by the previous owner. But I need to assess deaper on the undercarriage to see if there is anything starting. It's all down hill from here.
Are you applying yourself?

Wheel and tire setup?

No reason, really, other than just force something new, even if it's a '20 (I had an '18).

Part of me wanted to sell the truck when it still had some good value left and well before a new chassis update came live. I don't think the Gen2's will hold their value nearly as well as the Gen1 did and that always made me a little nervous. I paid over sticker for my truck when new which never sat well with me, and wanted to recoup as much of that as possible.

I might just go buy a Tacoma interim; yeah, it won't be the Ford, but they're simple, reliable, hold their value regardless of updates, and I personally think they look great. A Prospector might be fun, etc. etc.

I'm also negotiating on a new '20 right now. So far I've negotiated $2500 under MSRP, but looking for some more. If I can swing a new one at a low enough cost, I'll likely go that route as this has, hands down, been my favorite car.

Always happy to hear your opinion.

@Kyle Nezat, those are Method 17" 105 beadlocks wrapped in BFG 37" KR2's. Great tires, but highly not recommended if you do much driving on the pavement; the noise level is pretty abhorrent.

Looks awesome no rubbing with the 37’s?

 

[xcartelx]

The KM3's I had didn't rub at all with some minor trimming, but the KR2's run tall and wide and will likely rub. Mine did, but I couldn't really care less as it had no damaging effect.

Next up is the F-Series Complete Setup from 67designs. I got this along with the GoPro mounting arm. I've had 67Designs, "the Rail" mount in my JLU Wrangler for the last year and a half. It's stood up to a heavy amount of rocky trails in Colorado so I'm optimistic this one will be solid. Some time later I'll reroute my USB so I can at least have power up on the top of the dash and not have a long cable running down to the console.

Yes, I, going to apply myself. Looks fairly straight forward. They don’t have allocators near me. I got a got a gouge from a non authorized dealer and they wanted $300 to apply, not including materials

I ordered this to apply on my 2020 Raptor I’m picking up today. Watch the video, this stuff is amazing. I spoke with the representative and have full Confidence applying to the entire engine bay under carriage. I ordered the kit that included a pre cleaning Product.

Thanks for posting this. I was thinking about doing POR15 on my frame, but I may just use this. Being able to spray Nyalic on the engine bay and wires is a game changer because most products like AMSOIL HDMP are combustible and cannot be sprayed on and/or near the engine.
