Adam, I have a 2010 scab. Tow capacity is 6000lbs. I installed the Timbren bump stops and an Andersen WD hitch. I have towed my MPG 2120 travel trailer from our home in Colorado all over the country with no issues. Trailer dry weight is right at 5000. I weighed after a trip and combined truck/...

I bought Gen 1 6.2 new in 2010. The KO's and KO2 have worked well for GOING, but not for stopping. it's a 6000lb truck so on ice it just slides. I finally broke down this winter and put on the studded version of the Nokian Hakkapeliitta LT2. WHAT A DIFFERENCE!!! We had a heavy snow last weekend...

damn! Do you ever drive it? I thought mine was low at 68000. Most of that the last 3 years after i bought a travel trailer and made a couple of cross country jaunts

Get a wdh. I pull a Kodiak 242RESL that is a bout 28ft long and 6000LBs loaded with my 2010 SCAB with no issues.

Hi, I tow a 6000lb (loaded) travel trailer with stock SCAB. I use a weight dist hitch (just switched to Anderson) and that has worked well. I did recently add a set of Timbren SES (FR150R) bump stops. These are Rubber support springs that replace the factory bump stops. With the trailer...

rpm change during shift I'm not sure if this is exactly the same, but mine sometimes "over revs" during a shift. It can happen anytime, but seems worse on a part throttle scenario, where it's just holding speed before the shift. I had in the dealership under warranty 2 years ago and they...

Welcome!! Having been to Switzerland several times (my company's headquarters is in Thun), how do you maneuver through the narrow streets?!

Hi Congrats on the truck. As far as dogs go, I purchased a rear seat hammock/seat protector from Orvis for my Raptor. I have three dogs and this keeps them in the back seat, and everything clean. I have a 2010, and the dogs go everywhere, including camping. When I pull the hammock out, the rear...

I have the KO2's. Just drove back from Sioux Falls SD to Colorado Springs a week ago in the big blizzard. They did an incredible job in the snow, and were exceptional on the dry pavement on the way out. They are much quieter than the original KO's, and perform much better in the snow as well. I...

welcome welcome from Colorado Springs!. Enjoy the ride....

I replaced the rear shocks today. what a difference! nice and stable again. Also raised the rear about an inch. I didn't think even charged shocks would do that but they did. Next week the fronts will get done. Thanks for all the help everyone.

I was aware of the rebuild. I am going on a cross country trip next week, and Fox could not get the shocks back to me in time. I also travel extensively for work, often on a moments notice. I didn't want to start something then get called away and leave it until the last minute. The new shocks...

So I ordered a set of rears FOX OEM. Good price compared to what the local Ford dealer wanted. Now the question is, should I go ahead and replace the fronts as well? I'm not sure of a good way to check them on the truck. One other thing, did a quick check measuring from the ground to the fender...

It looks like my shocks are bad. If i tap the breaks when just barely moving, the it rocks back and forth a little. Pretty easy to compress the back in by pressing on the bumper. I'm not sure i have time to pull the shocks for a rebuild, and get them back in time for a long road trip at the end...

side hop Actually, the big bump like the median is fine.. especially at high speed. That way all four wheels come off and i don't skip sideways! Thanks for the input. I guess I'm disappointing if the springs are already shot. i suppose the shocks could be going as well. I run the tires at...

Hi All, My 2010 stock Raptor (6.2) seems to have recently developed a much more pronounced rear end "side hop" when hitting bumps in the road. Having driven it for 5 years, I'm pretty use to what it normally would do. The only time I really experienced this before was on washboard roads under...

Hi I'm in Colorado Springs. Welcome to the forum.

get it and enjoy Hi, I have a 2010 6.2l that I bought new 5 years ago this week (hard to believe!). I did have the transmission valve body replaced just before the warranty expired because of some weird shifting. Other than that, no issues. I have pulled our travel trailer cross country with...

Thanks for the input. I went with the Goodrich KO2's first impressions are they are QUIET. and look great!

Welcome Welcome aboard from another springs raptor owner

Time for new rubber. Overall, i have been happy with the Goodrich AT's that came on the truck. Looking at the new KO2's Looking at others as well. Big O has their AT's at considerably less money, with a great hazard warranty. Anyone have any experience with the Big O tires? They do not look...

Just finished across country trip (4600 miles)pulling 26 ft trailer. gas mileage was about 9.5 but I was always doing speed limit whether it was 65 or 75. Truck did great, but I do use WD hitch. Combined weight when I got back was 12940lbs.

I had a 78 Bronco and it was the best vehicle I've ever owned. I regret getting rid of it few years ago.

Did the bedrug myself. Wasn't sure about it when I ordered it but I love it. I actually used my truck to landscape my yard and had everything in it-dirt, rock, mulch, sod, railroad ties , etc. Took it the car wash and pressure washed the back of the truck and it looked new. Ordered it through JC...

I was close to doing line-x or something similar. Then went with the BedRug. LOve it. Purchased through JC whitey and they have one year return. I figured if it didn't work out or hold -up, I'd return it and go with a spray in. I don't think that will happen. I used my Raptor for a bunch of...
