    2011 SCREW with unfortunate water in the engine

    Sorry I have been a little delinquent on this thread! So yes, since it was a flooded out county road and not some goofy off roading incident my insurance covered the repairs. Got a reman FoMoCo long block installed from the Ford dealer here in Franklin TN, and since I keep excessive insurance...

    2011 SCREW with unfortunate water in the engine

    Creek crossing on a county road, and since we have broken record rain fall totals the past 2 weeks the water was much higher and more swiftly moving than usual. I eased in and throttled through it to make sure I didn't get washed out and to not be in it any longer than I had to. Pretty benign...

    Slide in Campers for a SCREW

    Not sure where to post this on the forum so I figure this is a good starting point. The better half and I have a vision, haha, we want a slide in camper for the SCREW to take to my chump/lemons races, Talladega, stage rallies, and out west. With a slide-in I could still pull my race car, and...

    Tennessee run

    I went ahead and bought all the equipment needed to rebuild them myself, just haven't had the time to tear into them yet. Figured if it goes smooth I might rebuild some for people in the area since there aren't many shops that will do it in my area. I got told by one of the more reputable Off...

    Tennessee run

    I wish I would have seen this a couple weeks earlier! Next weekend will be tight for me but I'd love to make it up there. Plus my shocks need rebuilt in a bad way, but maybe I can make it and just putt around for the day. What is the name of the Event Page on Facebook you mentioned?

    New Owner question about wheel hop

    Thanks guys! Looks like the Ebay link is Forged also, so I just went ahead and ordered off their site. And since Forged is apparently so kind as to carry schrader valves that I dont have to drill and tap my shock bodies, I went ahead and just bought the 4 schraders and 4 viton seal rebuild...

    New Owner question about wheel hop

    How did I miss that?! I have been going scorched earth on my hunt for stock thread pitch schrader valves and they were at the same place as the rebuild kits I was planning to order... Appreciate the help! This is one of the more useful forums I have ran across, but I also own a bunch of...

    New Owner question about wheel hop

    Yeah I have been studying the DIY Rebuild for a few days, because I was sold on this Shock Exchange deal until I looked at the shipping price to get the struts from TN to CA and back... There are a few things that are not super clear to me so I may take you up on that offer, but over all it...

    New Owner question about wheel hop

    Yeah, its funny you mention the tire pressure because at first I thought the same thing. Felt like the guy I bought it off of was running 70psi, but I checked and I was pleasantly surprised they were at 38psi on all four corners. And to your point 10ply tires arent exactly made with a smooth...

    New Owner question about wheel hop

    I am a new owner of a 2011 Crewcab with 82k on the clock, and it has Fuel Trophy wheels and Toyo Open Country R/T tires (all in stock size and offset). So I have a pretty basic question about the amount of wheel hop I am seeing out of my truck. Of course once you own one and put a few...

    Fresh new Raptor Owner

    Thanks for the welcome. I hadn't done anything but stare at my truck in the picture, but it looks like I got a picture of the competitor OEM I work for in the background. Maybe in bad taste but it'll be alright haha. I have tooled around in the yard with it a little but I only have 6 acres so...

    Fresh new Raptor Owner

    Just picked up a pretty clean loaded 2011 SuperCrew here in middle TN. I get crippling buyers remorse so I am going to be in that stage for awhile unfortunately, but I am pretty impressed with the truck so far. The wife loves it and it has been a pretty hit among my buddies. Can't wait to see...
