I call it the (Brain Drain), all the service industries are suffering from it. What you need to know to service todays vehicles / machinery coupled with personal reliability & pride in workmanship is hard to find and dealerships aren’t willing to pay for it. So the good guys leave the...

Unless something has changed 3 months is all you get to reverse the charges on credit cards. Save the paper / electric trail. Small claims court, not hard. Lesson learned. If it takes more than 3 months to produce the product you’re gambling. Good luck!

Been protecting the H1 forever, or no one wants to steal it. Bonus, it sings to you when you change the battery! Thinking this is my Raptor solution! Might move it over

Soap on towel, spray soap on engine, hit the big stuff with the towel, rinse. Towel / compressed air. Now the important part.....soak in WD-40 (water displacement - formula 40), wipe off what you can get to and the drips. Done every car & truck I have ever had owned this way, not greasy...

Can't speak for these current runs but having participated in the early / first Raptor runs I can say that all the broken / crashed trucks I saw were modified. People seemed to forget the chain theory (weakest link) and over drive their truck and also the aftermarket parts can only handle so...

Been there couple of times on an early Raptor Run and a run to watch a race. Usually just overnight. Cool place, decent food, a popular stop for offroaders. If it hasn't changed it was dark as hell when they turned the Gen off, candles in the rooms, etc. Real Mex feel! Not the Taj Mahal...

The only real issue is that I wish I bought a Blue Raptor and don't let her get away from you on a slippery ramp!

Can't forget the Raptor!

Been doing some upgrades to the Old 69', new shoes (didn't realize that this size tire only comes in raised white letters from mickey's but i have had always MT's and they grew on me), back seat installed (fuel cell use to be there), new fuel system (Fuel Injection) and a duel spare setup and...

And don't have that dealer do the scope inspection! I work on turbine engines (small ones, RC Aircraft / Drones) and the compressor wheels are almost the same as Turbo charger Comp wheels and when one is landed on a lakebed or stuffed into the ground you could imagine the dirt that gets sucked...

Is this the article where not only the replacement battery is more than the purchase price of the used car but that the battery was discontinued? If so, total loss of investment plus its gonna cost to get rid of it! It would help if manufacturers would stick to a standard size battery area /...

Therein lies the problem, your a short time away from rock chips & trail kisses unless she's a garage Queen and than your pondering why you spent all that money for a little more shine or make to make it a little easier for your car wash guy to clean! I've had many cars & bikes done and at...

This is the first production vehicle with 37's & very limited production, welcome to the club!

Put 100K miles on my Gen 1 taking it on many Baja trips, drove it hard and my Gen1 always got me home! My 18' Gen2 although never been to Baja (just messing around King of the Hammers and such) is a great truck in its own, but at 50K now it has been and is now in the shop again. Phazers...

Bought my 18' in AZ. The dealer deducted the Cali Tax, then drove to the Az border & had to sign a notarized doc that it left the state (so I didn't pay AZ tax). Then in Cali I had to weight the truck, get inspection DMV (AAA can do) and then smog the truck & send all that stuff in. Cali tax...

Hadn't opened it in awhile (and I knew I should have cycled & lubed it more often), hit the button, crunching noise and no open. Glad it stayed close at least and that I have an extended warranty. Off to the dealer again!

I've posted this pic in other tow threads. I have towed this 28' cat with twin big blocks with many trucks over the years (Dually, H1 & Gen1) and now with a Gen2. Only issue with the Gen2 was I could get a little sway at upper freeway speeds in a bad cross wind or bad pavement. Problem was, I...

Now that's a creative use for a used kiddy pool!

Not that I've seen a truck dragged to a "road" or anything, and unless something has changed in Mex Policies your not covered "Offroad". Although most dirt roads down there are "roads".

No worries, I was trying to get in front of that post description before someone said something else a little harsher like (bed decoration) but technically it does have function. It can get nasty around here sometimes. A Chase Rack is usually referred to as a cage system bolted to the inside...

Damn click bait, that's a light bar mount system. Sorry wasn't tryin to be mean just expected more. ;)

Sorry to thread jack but what hood protector is that and are you happy with it?

For what its worth I've towed this boat with duallies, H1's & (2) Raptors a 12' and now an 18'. The only issue I ever had was I was using the same receiver for all the trucks and with the way the 18' Raptor squats as you can see in the pic I was getting a little sway at upper freeway speeds or...

Wow, as others have said I can't believe someone reused / tried to repair. From your pics that surface doesn't look perfect & you answered your own question on incorrect gasket reassembly. Those gouges in the chamber act as heat sinks and could have or develop hairline cracks anyway...a...

And still nothing from Ford Performance for the Ecoboost? Not even a tune...or how about a decent sounding exhaust. No Love, should have kept my 12'!
