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

[Deleted member 12951]

Finally got my cam phasers replaced after dreading it and got my truck home after being gone for 2 weeks and...got up the next morning to a nice puddle of oil in my driveway. Called the dealership and they apologized and towed it back. They’re saying it’s because the drain plug was broken, but with my truck being a 17 with the push and twist lock plug I’m not sure how it could be broken but there wasn’t any noises, alerts or low oil pressure. When I noticed the puddle I checked the dip stick and the oil level was at the bottom of the stick. Could have been worse I guess but now I get to clean up a huge oil puddle in my driveway!

Have the dealer pay to have your driveway cleaned. A local shop didn’t tighten my wife’s car oil plug and it got on the driveway. One of their employees came out to my house and scrubbed my driveway. It was probably the tech who did it and bet he never does it again.

My friend couldn’t believe that I actually got them to do it, said he has seen everything now.

Well I didn’t do it just yet but got my rotors and pads for a brake job hopefully this weekend.

Would love to hear how the truck stops with these rotors and pads.

Installed a Full Race Intercooler with Throttle Body Spacer and Turbosmart BOV...then made a full DIY install video on YouTube

I just had a Cobb FMIC installed with a stage 2 tune by @GooseTuned and my Turbosmart BOV isn’t working (not blowing off at all). Did you have any issues with that, or is mine messed up for some reason due to not being re-installed correctly?

Do you have time to do a write up, or provide any tips on where to buy and how to do this?

I will ask my buddy who made the custom PRNDM LED lighting set up. I watched the process, he bought some very inexpensive LED lighting strips on Amazon, wired an inline resister and used Ford OEM “Male and female” connections then we wired to the drivers lane change assist lighting. It even works wort the truck dimming system.

Pretty truck, I really like those wheels! Looks good.

Not much on the mods menu until I can save up for some Deavers, so took advantage of a perfect almost-Spring day in March to visit my local volcano!

Got to see some dude with more $$ than common sense get his enclosed snowmobile trailer hung up on the corner of another trailer going into a parking area he had no business even trying, and jump-started a dead Pathfinder to boot. All in all-a successful day!

Agree, they flow very well with the truck. Look very close to the stock bead lock capable ones.

Completed my three month Ritual of washing the truck with CarPro Reset then washing again one panel at a time with CarPro Hydro Foam and finishing with CarPro Perl on the tires.
The Hydro Foam is amazing and I highly recommend anyone who wants an unbeatable shine and overall protection try this product. But please pay careful attention to the instructions. I didn’t the fist time and paid dearly removing the streaks, 3-4 hours and a very sore arm!

Looks great and your pup agrees. Gotta get some Perl to try on interior surfaces.

Just figured out why the BOV wasn’t blowing off... it was stuck in the closed position after less then 5k miles of use. Sprayed a little lube and all is good.

Thanks again to @GooseTuned for the amazing tune. It’s a completely different animal! Now I need to email him my log and let him work some of his magic to squeeze more power out of it.
