    Engine oil question

    Bingo. To above Mine is a early 19 build. And it would smoke bad on warm start up and use oil. Took it in and had valve covers and manifold done and problem solved.

    2019 Raptor Boat trailer towing in reverse issue

    Does the trailer have surge brakes not electric. Most boat trailers do. So you must put a pin in tongue so brakes do not apply in reverse

    PPG water based clear

    Ppg doesn’t have a water clear to the public yet. Shop used PPG water base and a solvent clear. 30 days is recommended to let clear vapor of. But after 10-15 days it’s done. Go ahead and wash it anytime and after 15 or so days wax or whatever.

    Second Thoughts on Raptor... Tremor maybe?

    I just took my raptor to the local spring shop and they added 1 piece of oem steel to each leaf. And it works awesome. Gave me about 350 lbs better tongue load and works very well. They showed me how they could adjust the stack to get the ride height I wanted etc. and was less than 500 bucks if...
