    JBA sideswept exhaust

    I had a shop install it. I travel for projects and was away from home, so I wasn't going to mess with it on the gravel driveway I had at the time. Sorry I couldn't be any help.

    Arc-Rite brand Grill/Brush Guard

    To OP, looks great, I'm sure you see a bunch of those in the Angelo area! I worked at Arc-Rite for a few years, I can tell you for a fact, if you hit something hard enough that the grill guard (an Arc-Rite grill guard) smashes back into your hood, then without the grill guard you would be...

    Bedspread - Cause, Correction and Prevention

    A little late to this thread, been very busy of late, but this is not a Raptor specific problem. I grew up on a ranch in west Texas, and every truck we had would eventually do this due to the continued jostling on rough roads, and not at any significant speed. The lower part of the bed is the...

    Question on spare wheel and tire

    on the 2010 & 2011 models, the spare was black with the 4 main wheels being gray - this was to distinguish that it did not have the TPSM (tire pressure sensor), I was told it was DOT regs that if the spare did not have the TPSM that it had to have distinguishing marks??? maybe not? I haven't...

    Finally built my bumper!

    ^^^ is this Anderson Cooper coming out of the closet? lol mods and admins, this honestly doesn't bother me, as I saw his other posts and realize the situation, but I would think all his/her/it's post should be deleted, as it is only funny to him if he can pull these posts up and show his...

    Finally built my bumper!

    I was debating a skid plate, but there is a perfect gap between the factory skid and the bottom of the bumper for me to reach the receiver pin. I will stick with the factory for now. We were debating jigging this up for production. Would there be any interest? Not sure on a price, but it...

    Finally built my bumper!

    well... let me clarify, it was my idea and I was the welder's ASSistant! by no means do I have the skill to actually craft this! although I did sweat my ass off in the south Texas heat helping, and installing, uninstalling, tweaking, reinstalling, I must give full credit to Arc-Rite Welding...

    Finally built my bumper!

    I finally got the time and schedules coordinated to build my new bumper. Still got to Line-X it and clean a couple things up, but I am very happy with it. The gap between the upper fascia and the bumper will disappear when I install it permanently with all bolts, versus it is just mounted for...

    Raptor v RamRunner verdict....

    So the Mopud wins by 33 seconds and costs $18K more! Thats $545.45 a second! Trump doesn't even make money that quickly! (that would be $15,708,960.00 in an 8 hour day). And for $18K you get a ************* that can supposedly beat a Raptor, but even with all those mods you will have to call...

    winch

    Not familiar with Wicked's setup, but Draw Tites front mount for our trucks is rated to 9000 lbs. line pull. I used to sell accessories, and unless your getting something custom fabbed, all the receiver hitches (class III or above) have always been more substanially built then off the shelf...
