    new raptor owner here

    i bought a 2010 scab raptor last month, and love it so far. it had 117k on the clock when i picked it up for $21k. i had a bit of bad luck already, as so far it has lost a wheel bearing/hub on the highway while 170 miles from home, while picking up my 6 year old daughter. i had it towed to...

    does anybody else hate the rear e-locker?

    yeah i would love to set it up with a 4 link like my '59 but with longer ling bars for the longer travel needed in a raptor... as for traction bars, that's likely coming soon for me. guys have run 8's in the 1/4 mile in lightnings with leaf springs and a derivation of the rancho traction...

    does anybody else hate the rear e-locker?

    i carry zero weight in the bed...it is not necessary with proper differential setup in my experience. might be necessary for a rwd truck in a snowy environment (a buddy of mine in college did that to get by in Boston in a rwd ford ranger), especially one with an open diff, but not a 4x4. i'm...

    does anybody else hate the rear e-locker?

    yes you can, but again, i don't want to run around on pavement fully locked, and also i don't want to have to flip a switch to get traction for almost every take off when the road is a bit wet.

    does anybody else hate the rear e-locker?

    glad to see i'm not alone. yes you can wire it to stay on full time, it just needs 12v. the factory setup steps down to 5v after a short time to hold it, but for short bursts, it's likely not necessary to step it down. one guy bench tested an OEM locker setup, and left it powered up with 12v...

    does anybody else hate the rear e-locker?

    new owner here of a '10 scab raptor. had it about 2 months and i really hate the locker in the rear. I was looking at changing the diff to a true-track or locker. on rainy days like today, my truck slips around a lot, and it rains here a lot. i miss the feel of my previous f250 and both...
