    2023 Raptor R need to lower 2"

    Remember. That only lowers by 1 inch. Of the two inches that the tire total height is different only one inch is below the axles adding height. The other inch is above the axles.

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    @jdm_sixtwo, Sorry it took so long. Every time I remembered to take a picture it was dark out already. Even when I got a picture it doesn't have the aspect I wanted. The mounting of my lights blocks camera view from the mounting. On mine there is another 1/4 inch or so thick plate running...

    Mine has the winch fairlead. If I remember I'll look to see how it is mounted.

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    The round holes are "pressed". They have an edge on the inside that I wouldn't want a light bouncing off the back of. Recessing lights from the outside and mounting hardware from the back would have to go through the metal I think as the metal isn't thick enough for just a sheetmetal screwed...

    WTB: Gen 1 driver side SVT fender vent

    Unfortunately, they are a some difficult to make pieces of plastic. Even the stick on covers cost as much as you're hoping to pay. A few years ago, I lost one. They were @$350(pair) at the time. I found some with lights for @$250.

    Gen1 Tire & Wheel Picture Thread (upgraded) - post em up!

    They look best when they’re hauling a family or friends. Daily driving back-and-forth to work a scab looks better. I think the only solution is one of each and in every color.

    2013 SVT Rotor/brakes/calipers sticking?

    I agree with swapping brake lines. My very first raptor I bought used had a caliper stick due to a brake line that would collapse. The brake line is easy to swap out and it doesn’t cost much.

    Daily Driver + Sports Car --> Raptor

    I hope someone already said this. You may only be paying on one vehicle but each of those costs is increased on that one vehicle if it is a Raptor.

    Regret getting Supercab over Supercrew?

    Until they make a instant conversion back and forth between the two you'll always want what you don't have when the time arises.

    New Prototype Chase Light Option... Tell us what you think...

    Being a hitch mount that has to be removed to tow I would want either a 4 or 7 pin connector. Otherwise how would you keep from wrecking your light with the other wiring options while using the hitch?

    GEN 1 Seek advice on repairs (Bay area)

    Fuse 27 is known to "melt" the wiring underneath. It is a fairly easy fix if caught soon enough.

    Are your coil springs curving? Is the coil closer to the shock on one side instead of centered?

    WTB: Stock Gen 1 Shocks - SoCal

    I used Hammer for rebuild exchange on mine also. Just like stated above by Bozz, I received a gauge to check pressure as I upgraded to having schrader valves. Now it appears that we can buy new stock on rock auto for @$1400 before shipping and tax.

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    When it arrives you should look carefully to make sure it only drains forward. I had one that drained forward and backwards on my first Raptor and did not know until the mess was made. My current Raptor only drains forward as I think the first one should have been.

    Shock rebuild in Wa state?

    I used Hammer also. Brian even made a video of a resolution for a problem I had from a local place installing my front coils wrong.

    Setting up exhaust system

    If you go from headers to cutout to cats to muffler from a stock F150 you can be quieter on highway and rowdy when you want by a larger margin of decibel difference.
