I was having an issue Bluetooth pairing my new phone to SYNC.. I went through the process and before I could get the 6 digit code typed into my phone, I would get a "failed" message. My phone would say "connected but not paired":mad3: What I finally found out was that when SYNC displays the...

A few weeks ago I bought the new LCD "BacPac" attachment for my GoPro Hero HD Camera. Finally got to use it. It's AWESOME and I highly recommend it if you have the Hero HD camera. Not only can you see what you're filming, but the menus are SO much easier to navigate and use. Even if you...

OK... so my tires are getting a bit worn... and with some luck I scored a set of "take off" stock Raptor tires and wheels at a decent price. The only problem was that the TPMS sensors had been removed and the tire stores around here wanted a ridiculous amount of money to either install...

Here's a quick video from Raptor run 5... about 8 hours of fun shown in 5 minutes... :mrgreen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4KpJeBl5tuE Thanks to Dan for organizing... Brian, for leading... ...and everyone who came out! (available in HD)

A quick video of bstoner and his Deaver's on a section of the last Raptor run.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3e6kF-m41M

I wanted to add some more lighting to the front of the Raptor while keeping the stock look as much as possible when the lights aren't needed. The mounts would have to be strong (I hate jittery lights), easy to use (preferably no tools required), and require little to no modification of the...

OK... so I had my motorcycle in the back and I was driving with the tailgate down... the bike is too short to put weight on the tailgate but too long to close it. So I hit this goofy little dip in a turn near my house and hear CLUNK. I get out and look and the right side of the...

Got this in my email today... didn't see it here yet. http://www.kbb.com/car-news/all-the-latest/first-to-worst-2010-full_size-pickup-truck-comparison-test

OK... I need some help. My stock air filter is pretty dirty. (For those that care, it appears Ford had treated the stock air filter with some kind of oil treatment which I thought was kinda cool... but I digress...) So none of the generic parts stores carry Motorcraft Air Filters. Off...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyByUBM3oYo Full run from start to finish. Map of run:

The coax drops straight down inside the post hole and comes out under the truck. I routed it along and tied it to some other wires on top of the driver's side frame rail... lowering the spare helped the access. In the pic below you can see the coax... it was moved to the left and secured...

I finally got around to installing my CB antenna. (CB's are really nice to have while off roading.) Also, you can attach a buggy whip to the same mount if you are running the dunes... I could not find a mounting system that I liked. So I decided to build my own our of odds and ends I had...

Ford worked with BFG to create a unique tire for the Raptor. One reference to what they did is here: The result is that there are two BFG tires available that to the naked eye look identical but are different in construction and rubber compound. The two versions of the tire should not be...

I believe the Raptor uses standard incandescent bulbs in the brake lights (except the third brake light on the cab). It takes about a half a second longer for an incandescent bulb to light versus an LED. That doesn't sound like a lot of time but at 60 mph that translates into about 44 feet...

Everybody has probably heard one story or another about the Ford 5.4l spark plugs issues. The early 5.4 engines had only about 4 threads holding the plugs in and sometimes the threads would strip and the plug would shoot out of the head. Ford added more threads on later models to solve the...

Our Raptors have differentials in both the front and rear axles. A lot of us have a general idea of what the purpose of the differential is... but did you ever wonder how a differential really works? And why it is so important? The following video... made back in the 1930's... gives the...

LOL Hi guys! It's nice to be here. Thanks for starting this forum.
