    2024 Raptor Order MSRP

    Reading everyone’s comments, i contacted my dealer about orders since I am placing an order for a work truck and they said they would take my Raptor build and get it in the system while they wait for allocations. Thank you all. Glad I didn’t wait until nov or December to start asking.

    Received my preview order. Does this mean I have an allocation?

    Do the dealers have the right to deny your order? Do they notify you if they are adding any ADM before delivery?

    100K Mile 2017-2018 Gen 2 Reliability vs 2013 Gen 1

    I have an ’18 with 185,000 miles. I have done the cam phasers and the vacuum tube for the IWE. Recently, I swapped the shocks with rebuilds from TSW. The truck runs great. I change the oil every 8-10k miles. Truck feels like it still has a lot of life in it.

    IWE vacuum system upgrades

    I capped the tube going into the reservoir and the hubs are not engaged. Small hose (red circle) going into the vacuum reservoir is plugged. I probably won't be able to engage 4x4 right now since the check valve is holding the vacuum unless the solenoid releases the vacuum. Reservoir was ordered...

    IWE vacuum system upgrades

    I had the grinding effect due to the vacuum leak. I replaced the front hubs and vacuum check valve with the solenoid since I have 170,000 miles on the truck. Come to find out I still had a grinding sound...I figured it out to be the vacuum reservoir. Capping off the hose going to the...

    Any option for Gen 2 shock rebuilds in Florida? TSW Off Road exchange program seems like a good option

    front end rattle

    I had the same rattle. It was the brake pad was moving around. The clip was missing. New clips and problem solved. Luckily I was due for an oil change when I figured it out and Ford installed the clips at no charge.

    Collars vs Springs Question I haven’t seen

    I am leaning towards the collars but what about something like the Ready Lift Leveling Kit? They says it’s based on the concept of retaining the full structural use of the factory shim and support system And it seems easier to instal.

    That’s the issue with the mid-travel…fenders. It definitely seems like the 3.0’s with UCA and tie rods is all that would be needed for the front. Plus it would be a lot less red flags for the wife…lol. I definitely like using the 3.0’s after thinking about the hassle of doing springs. Thanks for...
