The 7.0L motor that has been "rumored" to be going into the Raptor at some point is already slated for production, but my understanding is it's not the Superduty motor and is an entirely different engine. 20,000 units are to be produced by Ford Performance which is too many to be a crate motor...
We had an XC90 13 years ago... Biggest POS I've ever owned. More stupid little problems and worthless customer support than the law allows. Welcome to the dark side...
"BFG doen't make a tire to fit the Raptor in a C load rating, nor would you want to put one on if you could find one."
The smart people at Ford disagree with you.
"When my 17 Raptor is delivered I will keep the stock tires..."
You will be keeping C load rated tires.
...and its not a stolen picture although I cant take credit for it. It's been everywhere in the public domain and is the most photographed Raptor in existence.
11, 12, 13 psi... these conversations always get me because I come from the diesel world prior to my Raptor. Truck in sig would hit 40 psi just hitting it on the street. 7.3 after this one would hit 50 psi under load. Some Cummins guys see 60+ on street trucks and with pulling trucks, the sky is...
I have used these in over 20 sets of tires from 33's to 46's... they are awesome. They make the balance perfect every time. I've had them in notoriously poor balancing tires, 44" Boggers, 44" swampers, 46" Mickey Thompsons, most recently my 37" Nittos... they are awesome. Tires last forever and...
someone on FRF facebook page had some today...

Wanna say Jeffrey Thompson at SVC.
Find Walter Burch at Aftermarket HQ. You need new shocks or a rebuild. Also, removing front sway bar keeps tires more planted in corners, but allows truck to lift a lot and roll more. after you get used to it, it's more fun to drive.
From what I've seen, the axle is off center from factory. The problem is, when the suspension cycles up and bottoms out on the stops like it should (not abuse) the leaf spring on one side partially hits the bump stop instead of the block ear hitting the bump stop. Not good.
I've always wondered... we check fluid with engine running and at temp so converter is full and fluid is in all its little places. When engine is off, fluid settles into pan. Yours, mine, everyone's settles into pan and contracts due to cooling. Why not just make the mark at the cool not running...
Apparently this is common. Most don't notice. I've seen pictures of crushed bump stops from the misalignment. Also seen thread where dealership was unable to resolve.
