Wife filled up the Raptor before our road trip the other day. She was being a great wife and while I was finishing up my presentations, she took the truck to fill it up. Loaded up the truckster and when I looked down, I noticed the fulled tank and was.. "Awesome, you filled the truck!" I...
Not on brakes my friend. Drilled holes are a major source of cracks on heavy break hot/cold cycles and use, I have tossed many of rotors cause of this. Take a look at every major racing series and tell me which ones are running drilled rotors.
I agree for cars that see really high heat at wear from track abuse. Each drilled hole is a source of spider cracking and that is why I will always run a slotted rotor and not drilled.
I do 5-6k on my oil changes on my 19 and I have 56k miles. Please don’t look at my service history because you would find transfer case/diffs changed at 30k, spark plugs at 30k not to mention brake fluid every 2 year and an extra brake fluid change when I put the 6pot wildwoods… SUSPICIOUS!!!
When your #3 in truck sales, your volume is low and a company can “afford” to make sure the vehicles pass rigorous inspections. When you increase your production, the volume will increase the number of chances an issue arises and unfortunately inspections may not be as rigorous due to pressure...
I have had multiple homelinks on multiple brands of cars and different garage openers.
The standard instructions work. I sometime has to push hold as then push 3 times in a row for it to work.
They do not make special body panels for a Raptor R. It’s all motor. The cab/doors etc will cost the exact same. The bed/fends will be regular raptor price
I am confused... I have done dozens of track days(not in my raptor)..... 130-150mph down to 50's all weekend. Road America has long straights and heavy breaking zones down hill..... I have never "warped a rotor" no mater how hot or how much I cooled them.... so how are people "warping" rotors...
I assume you are the "co owner" of this "frozen rotor" company and your marketing approach is to lob a post on the forums and have everyone start to search.... You did not post the link to look to obvious especial with your extensive post history.
My past experience is with BMW M3 OEM's(E90 and F80), Brembo (6pot OEM Range Rover Sport), AP Radical 6pots calipers. They all had much thicker walled pistons by 5x-10x thicker. I should not have to worry about heating these up like I would on a track car so i would not expect pistons to...
I received the Brakes today. I am disappointed in on the thickness of the pistons. I have never seen pistons that thin on any set of brakes I have ever done. I guess I will just have to find out the preform and how long they last.
Just run full synthetic 5-6k oil changes and your motor will last. Every turbo car truck I have owned has been that way. Had one opened up at 49k miles and due to manufacture recall on valve guides and the tech thought he opened the wrong motor it was clean as could be
I was a M3/F150 setup until some major health issues had me sell the M3 (no more track days). Then I grabbed a 2019 Raptor (FPB and Goosetuned). Yes it was a great jump from the F150 Lariat(modified) and yes the Raptor is a fun truck but I miss the M3 very much. The wife has a RR...
This is a wondering post…. Are you asking if you should sell the truck with all the issues to an unsuspecting
person or someone who knows the issues……..and get a different one?
You are underwater already but what is that number? Can you pay for the repairs or do you need the loan...
I am picking my truck up from getting the Cam Phasers replaced (2019 w/ 53K miles). My gut told me to hold off on the Goosetune until after the replacement, which i was ready to pull the trigger then the rattle appeared. What time frame would you recommend before I purchase the tune and...
Now that’s funny right there. I have never heard in my 30 years of purchasing cars, a person expecting to recoup their sales tax from the new purchase when they sell it used.
I will wait for the snarky belittling comeback……
I have had 3 F150’s and based on that 10 year history, it is all about You and where you drive.
Highway 65 and over, you might as well be towing a trailer. Drive the same highway 35 miles each way for 6 months. I would set the cruise at 60, 65, 70 for that week and you are talking...
I had the TSB software update performed in 2021 and was not notified that there was any newer software update. It was supposed to fix it but there are plenty who have said the issue still happened. There are many who have stated that there is an updated design of the cam phasers which...
I went to the truck today and stared it up and there is was, the dreaded Cam Phaser Rattle. 49,999 miles on my 2019. I had the updates done at 19k, full synthetic every 5k-7k miles a good 20k of those miles were on the highway at distances over 50 miles at a time or multi state trips. I...
Sorry 96k for a Ford Jeep is absolute insanity. Sad thing is with Fords obsession on high trim vehicles, it could be a long term detriment to the health of the company. Yes these specialty models are cool but if you won’t sell a entry level, people will not end up in the brand
