    Svc uca and tie rods instal question

    Tie rod boots I ran the OEMs, you have to cut them back a bit to fit. I used worm clamps to hold them to the rack/tie rod. For the rod ends, I used the boots for the respective size from Kartek: https://www.kartek.com/parts-categories/rod-end-boots.html When installing you have to be careful...

    Svc uca and tie rods instal question

    The squeaking is normal, lube em up regularly and it'll help keep it down as well as prolong their life. I did mine every oil change, though I had boots on the rod ends to help keep the water out.

    I'm noticing a bit of a trend to be honest... Of course this was the one time I didn't trailer it to the event too...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Finally got mine home after killing the PS pump. Line rubbed through and the pump didn't take kindly to not having any fluid, so she lived at my friend's place until I could get one of the trailers up North for a rescue mission.

    Apologies for just now seeing this - registration is still open (I finally got mine squared away last night, wasn't sure if the Panda would be making the last event). The 10th/11th is the Toys for Tots event - you can bring toys and non-perishable food items to exchange for raffle tickets (or...

    Rausch has a dedicated track for just the Raptors. We pretty much show up, run, hangout, repeat. Kids (both big and small) are welcome! I had one as passenger in the Panda this past weekend. Some folks camp at the track, others stay at the hotels nearby in Pine Grove or at an AirBNB. Personally...

    @Donovan you're welcome, would love to see you come out! I want to say the usual turnout is 20-40 trucks. I'll be honest I've never truly counted how many turn out, just by how packed the pits are.

    Two more events this year at Rausch - Aug. 18/19th and Nov. 10/11th. I'll be at both! Fridays nights are the night run and then we go just about all day long on Saturdays. I'll be there with the Panda!

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Thought about mine. Life has kept me from doing much to it, though last weekend I took care of some cab rust I discovered when cutting the fender liners up.

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    This was a SCAB, so the baby brother of yours! If I see you I'll have to make myself known. I think I'm the only raptor around here that uses a bypass rack. There is a molten orange (SCAB I think) I see running around every so often, though the bed and cab seem pretty intimate with each other...

    Tore the front end down on mine over the weekend. Gotta get that deep DEEP detail on the undercarriage for science. Yeah, definitely science... :emotions33:

    Looking at getting into a Luxury PreRunner for Baja!

    Blitzkrieg makes killer stuff and are awesome to deal with - when the 1450 project hits I'll be working with them on it.

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Haven't really done much with the Raptor, still waiting on parts to come in. I did, however, grab a new tow rig for it last week. If the weather clears up hope to get some decent pictures to share.

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Pulled the Raptor out of the shop and postponed next year's prep work. Diesel's transmission decided it didn't like the fluid I put in it when I changed the clutch last year and puked it all over the ground - right before I needed it to haul a load of metal :emotions122:

    You can work around the clip issue by taking a razor blade and heating it up with a torch, then slicing a chunk out of the clip where it wraps around the brake line. That way they can snap on/off the hose similar to how the abs lines do.
