    Black or White - Gen 3 - 37 Package

    I went with white for our 22 37. We do a lot of boon docking and white is much easier to remove brush marks etc.

    Built but on chip hold now

    I have about the same order date, late December 21 fully loaded 37, and a 8/22 scheduled build. My dealer received a notice from Ford that it will be delivered to the dealership the week of 10/13. Has any one else had a delivery to dealer date?

    Received the notification from Ford my 22 which was ordered on 12/15 is scheduled to be built 8/22. A thank you to my salesman who told me not to cancel the 22 when the 23's were announced. I can't wait. Now for all the delivery delays.

    2018 Raptor Sudden Engine Knock

    Could be the cam phaser issue. If it is it is covered by a special cam phaser warranty.

    Another successful 37" tire install on a 35" Raptor with spare

    Yes the tire hit right front fender liner and a section of body joint that is glued together to form about a 1 inch protruding "blade" just in side the liner cut the tire. This could also be why 37's have one inch less travel than a 35.

    Another successful 37" tire install on a 35" Raptor with spare

    My neighbor didn't have any rub when he changed to 37's till he went off road hit a hole in a turn and cut his front tire. Suppose if you are going to stay on the road you will be ok.

    Dealers and Warranty work

    A very good friend of mine is the fleet manager at Gaudin Ford in Las Vegas. They are backed up 4 to 6 weeks on repairs, both warranty and non warranty. Can't get parts and when they order several of an item they usually only get about 25% of the order. His advice is to go to dealer and get...
