I recently installed new shocks and Deaver springs on my truck. This was my first time installing real leaf springs, and tried to follow the directions as best I could, but the job was pretty straight forward. On my first test drive I could immediately hear a clunk and popping noise from the...
Came across this thing today. Plug and play headlight, turn signal, tail light flasher module that plugs into the OBD. Anyone use these before?

I've been searching for an in depth review of the Geiser Progressive Springs. Unfortunately the only reviews I have found are pretty basic. Can someone lead me to a good review of these springs, or type up a quick summary?
I'm thinking the Geiser Springs and Deavers are a decent way to...
I recently had my shocks rebuilt and have been having Major issues aligning my truck. I’ve finally got it close, but the truck still pulls right. I had an epiphany just now. Could a front shock be installed backwards? Sure as shit I looked and only one SVT emblem is facing forward, and the...
Just got my truck back from the dealer after I brought it to them for drive line play. I noticed play in 1st and 2nd gear when driving in traffic. They replaced a shift solenoid said it was fixed. Crawled under the truck this afternoon and it looks like the issue is in the transfer case...
Over the past few months I've noticed my truck riding like shit on the street. While its not quite as bad as a lifted CJ-5, the smooth plush ride is just about gone. This is getting me thinking, what the hell is wrong with my truck?!?
Now before you all refer me to the shock rebuild...
My front lower shock bushings are worn out again. The first time I had them replaced when they were being rebuilt and valved. Since I don't want to send the shocks off again, I figured I'd replace the bushings myself. Fast forward 6 hours and 2 busted thumbs later, I don't see how its...
I’ve compiled a check list for my truck before I go on a long offroad trip. I’m curious to see what others do. My truck is essentially “stock”, so I’m not burning up heim joints and needing 3.0 rebuilds every 10k.
Check list for any trip over 1,000 miles
Oil change and filter
Check PS...
After having my truck in and out of ford service for power steering pump and rack failures, I am trying to come up with the "ultimate" solution to the Raptor's so so power steering system. I have been poking around and have come up with couple of ideas that I would like feedback on. WARNING, I...
I received my spherical bearings / bushings from Forged Offroad today. After an initial inspection of the parts, I've come to the conclusion that these bushings had some time and thought put into them. I'd say they are quality, but I haven't really tested them yet. The bearing came pressed...
I am replacing my rear axle bearings tomorrow and went ahead and pulled the rear tires off tonight to get a head start. I noticed some play in the rear axle, in and out. Is this normal? Play is maybe a 1/8". Do I need to replace the C clips for new ones? Truck has 36,000 on it.
I'm interested in installing a set of Icon 3.0's on my '14 scab. I'm torn between a rebuild and revalve on the stock 2.5's, or new shocks all around. I have been reading up on a lot of forums, but I still have some unanswered questions about the 3.0's. My goal is to have a extremely...
I have a 2014 Scab that I primarily use to haul 2 bikes and gear to Baja, then use the truck as a support vehicle while prerunning the Baja 500 and general adventure riding down the peninsula. As of now, mechanically my truck is stock. I am wanting to upgrade my truck to have a better ride...
My Baja Designs rock lights came in today. Here is a brief review of my first impression.
PROS
- Incredibly small. I originally thought the lights were going to be bigger and noticable once mounted, but after opening the box they were shipped in, I was amazed at how small they are.
-...
I'm going to throw some Baja Designs rock lights in my truck bed for late light loading. I'm thinking I want to wire the lights to an ignition hot instead of a constant hot. These lights come with a switch on them so I'm not worried about them being on all the time. Does anyone know if I...
Does any one know the part number, name, or general area where to find the rubber door bumper things on the front door of a scab? Ive tried foreparts.com for a couple of hours and can't seem to even get close.
I have a "bouncing door" when i close the door. Kinda sounds like a pogo stick...
I'm thinking about pulling the stock wheels off the truck and swapping to an aftermarket wheel. As everyone knows, few 17" aftermarket wheels have the -32mm offset. While I would like a slightly wider stance, I'm not sure if it would change the characteristics of the truck?
Does anyone have...
I have done a bit of research on the ARB air compressors and have decided to install one in my truck. My first thought was to fab up a mount and put it in the engine bay, but after a quick look, there isn't enough room. I have seen other compressors mounted in 2 other places, underneath the...
I came across a new wheel company, Klutch Offroad. It looks like only the 20" are available now but 18' and 17' are coming early 2017 I believe. Pricing and specs will be released then too.
WELCOME | Klutch off Road
Really liking the KT02 model.
Has any one ever thought about turning the marker lights into Amber strobe warning lights? I've been trying to figure out how to wire an interrupter/ strobe function to an up fitter switch.
How long have you had your deavers and have you noticed a fade in spring rate over time? I'm considering upgrading to deavers and an SVC bump kit before the baja 500 but don't want to put something on the truck that will fade after a few thousand miles.
Raptors have a huge aftermarket, but everything looks the same to me. Its almost like each company take a similar design, tweaks it a little, adds a wild logo and calls it a day. Is the raptor market flooded with brotastic copy cats? I'm not brand bashing, I just feel like there is a huge...
