    Radio Mount

    I put one of those in thinking I could use that space to mount a radio etc. However - no room back there since the sub is in the way. But the latch is very cool.

    GEN 2 Sto N Sho License plate modified

    I have seen that Onyx 6 lite - I think it would be possible - but more moved down I think ? - the bracket is all aluminum it bends really easy - I used 3/4" length bolts for the plate hardware - you only really need 1/2" the bracket bolts were wagging on the diamond mesh grille so I bent just...

    GEN 2 Sto N Sho License plate modified

    I live in a state that requires front plates like it or not I had to put one on. Like the OP - I picked up the StoNSho front bracket. I considered mounting it off center on the passenger side but after much deliberation - I put it in the center. Install is easy - the entire bracket is all...

    Radio Mount

    Yea I still have to work up a bracket of some sort for the block, the block is just tie-wrapped down but working very well. I have not seen a 3rd party option yet. The Block makes it easy. That is a dual band 2M/70cm antenna - I switched out the Comet in the photos to a new Diamond...

    Radio Mount

    The yaesu 400 is in the factory bracket - I have a RAM-Ball mount bolted to that and then a RAM-BALL U-bolt mount bolted to the front seat X-member I hook to two RAM-Balls together with RAM mount. This is great since nobody can see it and it is out of the sun etc. Moves with the seat, the...

    Radio Mount

    I did the Breedlove stake mount as well. Ran the coax in the box fender and frame to the front passenger side - there is a plug under the floor I used to get into the CAB. I put the radio under the passenger seat: [/url]

    AUX Switch Wires and Pass Through Wires

    At last!! I found the other end of the "pass through" wires inside the CAB on the 2017 Raptor - they don't leave a lot of slack but I was able to work with a 15A circuit and there is a nice grounding lug right there!!! You will have to remove the passenger kick panel to get at them...

    ProClip and RAM X-Grip

    The ProClip USA dash mount was out of stock for a while but I finally received it and have it mounted in my 2017 Raptor. Seems to be a solid mount and the fit is about perfect - it just snapped into place. I plan on putting my iPhone + in it and/or a HAM radio Head. Here are some photos and...

    AUX Switch Wires and Pass Through Wires

    Thanks everybody - I have updated my original post to reflect the CORRECT sets of wires. Wire bundle closets to passenger fender are the AUX Switches HOT. Going to go dig UNDER the passenger fusebox for the pass through bundle in the CAB..... Details to follow.

    AUX Switch Wires and Pass Through Wires

    I can fix that if that is the case - I'll be the first to say I have not hooked anything to the switches since I can't find the other end in the CAB (yet). In the Supplement manual on page 44 is where I was getting the info - in my original drawing I guess the bundle near the fuse-box are...

    AUX Switch Wires and Pass Through Wires

    Took me a while to find them as well - they were tapped up and folded over in the bottom bundle - take a look at the quick video I did you may look in that area to find them. I can't find the the other end inside the CAB - heavy sigh - I may have to remove the whole passenger side panels to...

    AUX Switch Wires and Pass Through Wires

    Getting ready to wire up some HAM radio gear in a Gen 2 2017 F-150 Raptor. I finally found the AUX switch wires under the hood and I was also able to locate the pass through wires that run back into the CAB. I have yet to find the other end of the Pass through wires - I was thinking they...

    Front license installation affect on cooling.

    This might be an option to mount to the front skid plate - this would remove very easy with the two knobs for off-roading. I know the is for Jeep etc. (I have it on my JK) but may work for those that want/need the plate in the front. Check out this mount from Metalcloak. Just an idea.

    Stake Pocket Size

    Has anybody removed the factory plastic bed rail covers and measured the size of the stake pockets ? Looks like there are two total each side one stake pocket in the front and one in the rear - before I go tear into my new 2017 thought I'd ask and check. Thanks in adv.
