    What did u do to your raptor today?

    When I purchased the truck 2 years ago I knew the oem coating on the running boards was starting to come of in small sections. I painted the few small spots where the coating was missing...basically put them on the list of things to deal with later. 2 winters later and the oem coating is...

    Alpharex Pro tail lights!

    Contacted them last week with order number and summary of the issue - nothing yet. I've gone back to the stock lights, doesn't look as modern but at least they work!

    Alpharex Pro tail lights!

    I liked mine while they worked...unfortunately it didn't take long before they stopped. I bought these in the fall of 2022 and they made it all of 4 months before something went wrong. The brake lights are still working, but the parking lights/running lights have crapped out already. Here's a...

    Front mudflaps, Gen1

    I've installed the Rokblokz on my gen 1 as my wheels poke out a bit beyond perfectly flush (0 offset). They make them specific to the gen 1: https://rokblokz.com/products/ford-f-150-raptor-2010-14

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Stock rear lights were catching water and starting to fog, decided to try and pair of Alpharex lights. Went with the smoked lens, I think it works with the white/black theme of the truck and it's not too dark. Lights off: Running lights on:

    Electrical gremlin - need some assistance

    I don't have a picture, but if you start by removing the kick plate on the front passenger wheel well (i.e. where you can remove the trim to reveal the fuse panel) and then take a flashlight and go up frame, maybe 1/2 way up the glovebox if I remember correctly, you'll see an obvious point where...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    I upgraded my 2014 this past winter, it made a huge difference to modernizing the interior and it was pretty easy to install. That mod, along with the leather console cover, made it feel new. The blue background on all of the sync features also matches nicely with my blue trim, so it looks...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Installed a new tonneau cover. My previous one was a rolling soft cover and I decided to try a hard folding cover instead. No specific issue with the soft cover, just didn't like the flapping around on the highway and it used Velcro on the edges. New cover is from Bison (local to me), but I...

    Electrical gremlin - need some assistance

    Well, the prize goes to FordTechOne! I'm not too proud to admit the issue, hopefully it will help someone else in the future with a similar error. The "check your grounds in both footwells" comment made me think. The only ground connection that's been touched recently (a month ago) was the...

    Electrical gremlin - need some assistance

    Awesome, thanks for the response - I'll have to check those items. I left the office at noon to go run some errands and I noticed the following: - truck started without any issue, however I received a warning that the front and rear passenger doors were open (even though they weren't). - the...

    Electrical gremlin - need some assistance

    Thanks, I've checked the wiring harness in the driver door and I didn't see any issues. I had noted broken wires in the rear passenger door about 6 months ago and patched those already. I'm not sure how old the battery is, but it's not the original. It looks fairly new and the terminals are...

    Electrical gremlin - need some assistance

    Hi everyone, Having some issues with my 2014 Raptor, wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and can shed some light on the matter. The issue started last week after arriving at the office, as I pulled into to parking lot I lowered the driver side window to use my parking pass. I...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Purchased a set of used OEM shocks locally and then picked up the remaining components new online (top hat, nuts, spring, isolators, brackets etc). Sent the shocks away for a rebuild today, can't wait to get them back. Interested to see how the truck rides on refreshed OEM shocks. Since I...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Not done "to" the Raptor yet, but done "for" the Raptor today...purchased a Corsa exhaust! Starting with the sport version for now, need to hear the volume in person before deciding if I delete the resonator and go "extreme". I'm currently running a Borla S-Type the previous owner installed...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Installed a GJ 3rd brake light and a set of RokBlokz mud flaps. Easy installations (both) and I think they look good....I've brightened the pic so they're easier to see, otherwise the mud flaps blend in.

    Haha, yep...good thing it has black accents or it would be completely camouflaged in winter!

    Stock Fox shock assembly - need parts info

    Quick update in case someone finds this thread in the future with a similar question, I emailed Forged Offroad and they confirmed 2 brackets/spacers per side. One on top of the shock, the other on top of the frame.

    Stock Fox shock assembly - need parts info

    The installation video posted by Forged Offroad also appears to show one of the brackets between the shock and the tower and a 2nd on top of the tower. Just seems odd they don't show 2 per side in the "official" parts diagram.

    Stock Fox shock assembly - need parts info

    Hey guys, My Raptor came with a set of 3.0 Kings and I'm looking to re-install a set of OEM Fox shocks. I've purchased a set of front and rear shocks to be rebuilt, but I need to source the other parts for the front assembly. I found the part diagram, but have one question that I'm hoping...

    GJ Motorsports 3rd Brakelight

    This is a very timely thread! Not sure if it's the cold (we've had more than a few days at -25C or lower in a row) or if it's the age of the truck, but my OEM 3rd brake light has decided it doesn't want to work. Sometimes the red leds work as markers, sometimes they work as brake lights and...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Cleared off the snow and drove around the side roads and back roads! This was our overnight snowfall, the storm is still going strong. Closest thing this northern Raptor will get to sand dunes...snow drifts! Tires worked great in the snow, I had BFG's and Nitto's on my last two F150's, but...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    After the family went to bed the other night I decided to brave the cold to install my newly received baja designs fog light kit from stage3. The kit is well designed and comes with everything needed for a relatively plug and play install. Should be a quick install I thought....but we all know...

    Drone free, really?

    I have the factory resonator in place, but my truck came with an AFE CAI when I bought it, and that didn't help. I purchased an OEM intake that improved the sound, but still not ideal. I have been down shifting from 6th to 5th to keep the rpm's above the 2k mark as the best solution.
