I did mine last weekend, no issues at all. Spark plug boots were brown once you unclip them and pull them out. Night before: -1/2 Can of Seafoam in the vacuum line then turned off the truck quickly. -Pulled the brown boots and sprayed penetrating fluid into the holes where the spark plugs...

hahaha I would except with my luck I get into an accident, insurance sees they are not snow rated and I said they were and insurance is voided. lol I'm leaning towards the 315s. I see that there is a E and C rating for these tires, does that impact the tread life at all or just the...

I have to get new tires for the winter I’m looking at the KO2’s because they have the snow flake and in Canada that gets me a insurance discount in the winter. Plus I didn’t really have any issues with the original KOs. My question is, there are two different tire sizes available at two...

What did you do speaker and amp wise?

More Pics... Additional Vinyl Fender stripes, I've seen a few trucks with black fender stripes and I thought I would give it a shot. I had a roll of new unused Knife tape which has a small diameter cutting wire built into the edge of the tape. Some people just buy a role of vinyl tape, I just...

MOD 4: Vinyl wrapping all of the Exterior grey trim I went back and forth about plastidipping vs vinyl wrapping the fender flares, front and rear bumper. I posted online and got some feedback from people who said that vinyl would last longer than plastidip on the fenders and bumpers. I'm in...

MOD 3: Plasti-dipped Rear bumper & exhaust Rust removal from rear bumper powder coating and plastidip black. This was one of the first thing I did as I didn't want my bumper to rot away on me. I started off by grinding away all of the rust to bare shiny metal and then used brake cleaner to...

It's a 2010 5.4L that was babied by it's previous owner. I got it a year ago with only 37K miles on it. I put 12K on it since then. That is correct, if you plan to do any real offroading then you are going to want to lift the front end. It was aksed previous can 37" toyos be used for street...

MOD 2: Front bumper offset for tire clearance MOD 2: Front bumper offset for tire clearance I didn't want to grind into the powder coat on the front bumper to give myself some additional clearance for the larger 37" tires. I decided to Offset the front bumper using washers on the 4 main bumper...

Hey guys, so it's time to start personalizing my Raptor. I'll list the Mods as I go and show how long they took to do: MOD 1: 37" Toyo on bottom perch I started with putting 37" Toyo MTs on stock bottom perch. I had a thread on here, was told it couldn't be done, decided to give it a try and...

If you read this thread you would see that it is possible.

Did the 1.5" block in the back drop the rear down to match the front? The attached picture is of the Passenger side wheel well post grinding but pre bending. As always you get better after you learn from the first attempt. It's important to make enough of a relief so that the metal can...

I see that the 6" lights are back in there. Can D2s fit in there? Any pics of them on other trucks yet? Specifically a blue one with 37" toyo Mts? ;)
