    Rear Parking Assist With Trailer Hitch

    Just put an Equil-i-zer, 10000lb weight distribution hitch on to pull a camper. With the trailer disconnected, I keep the hitch in the receiver, but every time I put it in reverse, the truck thinks I'm about to crash into the hitch! A loud warning beep comes on and I have to manually disable...

    Raptor Assault - Detailed Course Overview

    Right. You can see something in their hand. It may be a hair dryer for all I know, but they do get on the radio if you're too fast. ---------- Post added at 09:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 AM ---------- ... and they informed us that this is the only Ford event that gets to...

    Raptor Assault - Detailed Course Overview

    First, a big thanks to the OP of this thread, JetDriver480. The event was almost exactly as you described. Next, on the topic of the Baja course: that segment of this event is essentially dead. It's obvious that Ford doesn't want the liability. This was only a half-mile stretch of...

    Hope to see some of you there this week for the July 1-2 event. Say hi if you see me. I'm usually the only Fred in the room.

    Dog Transport Options?

    I have an English Mastiff, and I got the cap for this reason alone. Just be careful on the install: http://www.fordraptorforum.com/f260/damage-truck-cap-60757/ I also purchased a ramp for him to get in. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0016HPTFW/?tag=fordraptorforum-20

    Damage From Truck Cap

    I will be there. Interestingly, they left the install kit in my truck. I will "forget" those at home. Good tip. Now that I know, I'll be in there with a flashlight checking all corners. Thanks.

    Damage From Truck Cap

    Don't know. I'll check when I get it back. Body shop is slow, so I still don't have my truck. I'm expecting it back Friday. The cap won't be reinstalled for another week or so. I really appreciate the pics. I'll use then as reference when I get the cap back on. I believe more now that the...

    Damage From Truck Cap

    I didn't get the sportsman package, but I can't help but wonder if it would have helpped.

    Damage From Truck Cap

    Good question. I have since seen a F150 FX4 with the same cap, and there was a gap of about 1/4" between the bed and the cap at the rear. I have no idea if the gap was there when it was originally installed, but I suspect it wasn't. I'll be checking for it when they reinstall the cap, for sure.

    Damage From Truck Cap

    So I purchased a SnugTop cap and had it installed by the dealer. When I got the truck home I noticed that the rear window of the cap was not latching easily on the passenger side. It required an extra push to ensure the latch would shut. A month later I took the truck on an off-road...

    Black Beadlock Ring

    I searched the forum and I can't find the answer, so I apologize if this has already been covered. I'm looking for a black beadlock ring to go with my factory beadlock capable wheels. (Not the beauty ring that comes with the wheels.) The only ones I can find are aluminum, and I don't like...
