    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Drove from Atlanta to Tampa, and was hearing a strange sound from the rear... Thanks to the FRF I was able to diagnose the problem as a rear pinion gear. After watching a YouTube videos on how to fix the problem, I gave up doing it myself half way thru the video, NOPE, too much for me. This...

    Gen 1 Bead Locks Wheels; OEM Springs

    Wow, that would be expensive to ship. What I might suggest is to contact uship.com to get quotes from Brandon, FL to Seattle. You might find a better deal than UPS or FedEx

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Replaced the seat cover. Never could find a matching one to the Red/Black SE seat covers. It's just a temporary fix if I can find a matching one or replace the panel that ripped. Maybe I shouldn't drive after eating Taco Bell.

    Predictions on how long over MSRP pricing will continue?

    I wouldn't expect to see MSRP pricing at dealerships until mid to late 2025. However, you might find good pricing on used ones. The FED is going to keep raising interest rates until 8% to cool the economy. People will stop buying and production/sales will slow. This in turn will result in...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Had my oil changed today at the dealer...nothing special about that. However, while waiting, I went over to look at the new trucks, every one had a $25K ADM. The day I bought my 2014 SE, there were only 6 left in my state and I got it for $500 under MSRP. I'm figuring I could sell mine for the...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    I paid too much to replace the entire unit when I only needed the plastic strip. But you have me thinking, I will take mine apart and try to replicate the piece using my 3D printer. Maybe others have the same problem.

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Replaced my shifter today... Nothing was wrong with the mechanism, but that center plastic strip disintegrated because of alcohol spray I used. Replacement wasn't that difficult as I followed part of Noah's Center Console removal on YouTube:

    CORONA RAPTOR RAFFLE

    I haven't been on recently, so I missed hearing about his passing (very sad), and the auction. if anyone is interested, I have two sets of front springs from my 2014 Gen 1 Raptor. One set is the original springs and the other set is Geiser. (I bought a second set of Geisers and had then powder...

    Anybody else over the new Raptor R already?

    Perhaps I am wrong, but I am seeing signs in the economy that point to bad times ahead. Inflation, a housing bubble that is showing signs of breaking, companies laying people off, the Fed increasing rates. Will Ford Dealers be offering trucks with a high ADM when interest rates are at 12%...

    What drop down Trailer Hitch are you guys using?

    I went with Weigh Safe. Bought the 180 degree ball as well. The nice thing about the company is that you can buy individual parts as well

    2014 SCREW A/C-Heater Fan Blower Motor?

    2014 SE Raptor, same thing happened to me... The noise does sound like a jet engine running and you can feel the rattle. Took out the fan motor and found the part as others described. I'm guessing something won't work right now, but it's good to have the fan (i.e. heat & A/C) working again...

    Are the GEN1 OEM front springs worth anything? I'm in the process of a job relocation to St. Louis and have some GEN 1 parts to sell in Tampa. Also have SE wheels, Bead-Lock Rings, Geiser Springs, all for GEN 1

    OEM driver seat cover for Gen 1 SE Black & Red or front set

    I have a rip in the drivers seat and couldn't find any OEM replacement. It's just a rip in the center of the seat, so I'm also open for the right material: black leather with the tiny holes (heated seat) The rest of the seat cover is fine.

    Who’s sold their Gen 1 during this market and hates the decision they made?

    The only reason I would sell mine is to get a 2014 SE in Ruby Red. So few were made.

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    I'll get some pictures for you of the stance. Basically the Deavers gave a 1" lift to the tail and mid-perch leveled it out.

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    It's mid-perch and I really like the ride. First thing I did was to run over some speed bumps and railroad tracks. Big Smile :)

    Who’s sold their Gen 1 during this market and hates the decision they made?

    Two weeks after I bought my Raptor new in 2014, a dealer spotted it in our Lowe’s parking lot and offered me $10k over what I paid. I knew I had a keeper. I’ve had my share of problems with the truck, which led me to start looking at new vehicles recently. The electric/hybrid options look...
