What did u do to your raptor today?

[NiteLife]

Funny thing happened today....

What did you do with your Raptor today.... hmmm that's a good one.
I broke mine. Attempted a hole shot from a stop light and didn't make it to the other side of the intersection. At first I thought I grenaded my drive shaft. Towed it home, had to replace entire rear shaft due to broken rear yoke, U-joint and dented shaft, after replacement I attempted to test drive it. First gear is fine but 2nd and 3rd whines and grinds like one of those old hand cranked rail cars. Ford has it now, they already stated that my warranty won't cover it, due to my modifications to the engine (all I did was install a Pro Charger centrifugal super charger, I told them that "they have no sense of humor or sense adventure") They are to pull the pan and at least give me an idea what damage has occurred.
Any suggestions on a respectable high performance trannny shop?

I live in Ft. Wayne IN
2011 6.2 scab, 28k mi, stock tires and wheels.

Were you wheel hopping when it happened?

Prolly the most aggressive I've gotten on it. My own stupidity... I was at a light between a Challenger and a Mustang... Guess I'll never grow up.

Same thing happened to me. Fortunately, there was no one around to witness my embarrassment.

Now, I have these and wheel hop is a distant memory:

Where'd you get them from?

 

[tahitiansoul]

Nice. Where did you buy them?

Have you had any clearance issues? Those look like they hang down quite a bit.

S&B CAI and five star tune. Totally different truck now. Crazy how much of an improvement over stock.

Not sure. Haven't gone offroad yet since I had them installed.
