I'm also in the Bay Area, and would love to hear more about where you are doing this, so that I can crash the party too! I've done a couple of the three-day rally schools at DirtFish in Washington, and that was the most fun I've ever had on four wheels. I'd love to try the same thing out in a...

I have a 2019 in Performance Blue with the blue Recaro seats in it. That isn't exactly the same as what you are asking, but it is a blue exterior with a blue interior, so hopefully it's close enough. I'd love to tell you that they "complement" each other, or that I "made the right decision", but...

I just got back from an EXO club run and I noticed that around half the Raptors there are sporting the GJ Motorsports third brake light. I've had one since shortly after getting my Raptor, and it has done exactly what it promised to do, without fail, through many offroad adventures. I found it...

Great setup, you're going to have a blast! They only use one channel (Weatherman), so no need to program. The gas stations we used had 91. The EXO guys mentioned that they have seen trouble with tunes out in the desert, so that may be something to watch out for. I am using the RPG mount for my...

I definitely wish I had more suspension! I went on both trips with just Deaver +2 leaf springs and RPG bump stops. The back end of the truck was very well behaved, but the front skid plate took a beating because I just didn't have enough clearance/travel in the front. Hitting the front skid...

I am signed up for the Enduro run with EXO and it will be my third Baja run with them (I did an Overland trip in May, and just got back from their latest run in September). I'm new to this kind of off-roading, but happy to answer any questions about what gear I brought (and what I wished I had)...

I'll add another vote for the Lomax cover. I just got back from my second multi-day trip to Baja with the Lomax cover, and it came through both just fine. On this latest trip the spare tire I had in the bed came loose and bounced up and down for half an hour before I realized what the noise was...

I'm also really new at this! The Deaver's get rid of the factory block, which is a 2" block that sits between the bottom of your factory leaf springs and the top of your axle. That means a +2" Deaver spring will make the truck exactly the same height as a stock truck (minus the 2" block, plus 2"...

The truck is completely stock right now (minus some superficial stuff like Line-X and a Tonneau). What would I need to consider for the brake lines? Do I need longer and/or tougher lines, or just a new place to route them?

I'm planning my first suspension upgrades for my '19 SCrew, and I've been reading everything I could find here on the forums. I have two goals with this upgrade: I want to "fix" the rear suspension, which feels unsettled on-road and I also want to get some hands-on experience with the Raptor...

Thanks for all the welcomes!

I bought my Raptor in July and have been lurking and learning here ever since. I've always been a "car guy" so this is my first truck and there is a lot to learn. I really appreciate all of the in-depth threads here on suspension tuning, off-road preparation, common problems, etc. I've put...
