    Deaver +2 or Deaver +3 with Shackle?

    Not +2 but running +3HD’s. Have approx 200lb’s of weight at all times including Diamondback HD cover and some full-time gear. Ride is great, similar to stock but more planted. Have hauled estimated 4-500lbs+ many times and no noticeable sag, the main reason I went with HD’s. In my case Deaver...

    Best wheels for Raptor

    No. Had some minor trimming done at install. Have over 2k miles on the setup now both on and off-road. Very happy with the setup and wouldn’t go back.

    Warranty with icon leafs

    I agree, definitely more stable and fitting of a raptor. Like having a well tuned Sport suspension on a higher-end vehicle. I do find highway and rougher terrain is smoother in my case, but there are plenty of roads where it's a push or even a little stiffer feeling than stock. Ford did a great...

    Warranty with icon leafs

    Yes for my setup. I went Deaver +3HD’s and assume Icons opt2 would be similar. I also have Eibachs up front. While I love the stock ride, it was fairly easy to unsettle the rear with the stock springs and 2” blocks. The rear is much more planted now. Less jolts on rough pavement and a...

    You quite literally live in one of the best places for a Raptor to roam! Beautiful shot of the great Steens Mountain.

    5th gen Texan living as an ex pat out West! Career and family will do that. But Oregon is a great place with lots of good people, and can’t be beat for the outdoors. State is mostly rural and can get very remote quick. Just have to avoid the cities. But anymore that’s becoming any city in the...

    At the General Store! Been a while but remember a great burger there too. Something is just better about milkshakes and burgers on that side of the state.

    The high deserts and mountains in Eastern OR are my favorite parts of the state. The Steens and Strawberry mountain ranges are a couple of favorite destinations. Arguably some of the best motorcycle roads and off-roading areas in the country.

    Gaia and Carplay

    Used the Gaia / CarPlay app a bunch last Summer and worked great, even in some pretty desolate areas up in the Cascades here. Also have an iPad Pro mounted above running OnX. Nice to have both options.

    That’s good to know on the brakes and too bad you had those experiences. Guess I’ve been more fortunate with them and always liked that they were a longtime family owned business in the area. That of course changed this past year but still really like the guys at my local store and they did an...

    I have used Discount Tire for just tires in the past and always been happy. But having the springs updated this go around I preferred the regional backing of Les Schwab. Great crew at the Wilsonville store and like that they have remote locations and support in Eastern OR, WA and ID. Both are...

    Nothing wrong with good ole’ battleship grey! Other than there’s a few too many on the road :)

    Sayin hello from the PNW

    Howdy all, been a regular visitor since before ordering my truck last year. Really appreciate all the helpful members, moderators and vendors who have built the ultimate Raptor resource over the years, even if you keep getting me to spend more $$$ every time I stop by! But have to say this place...
