    Time to move on

    Hey ya'll. Long time :) The lady and I have decided that its time to move on from the Raptor, and get into something more fitting our lifestyle/hobbies these days. Very long story short (that still isn't over), health issues have completely killed any offroad adventuring like we used to love...

    Time to move on

    Sup ya'll! Long time... The lady and I have decided its time to move on from the Raptor and get into something more fitting our lifestyle these days (aka a truck that can tow something around 10k lbs). Long story, but health issues have killed all offroading thoughts, and instead we've found...

    Hill Descent Control Fault + Brake lights flickering = 3rd Tail Light Leak?

    Its been raining here the last few days and pretty much as soon as the truck got wet the "Hill Descent Control Fault" alert blew up on the dash (in my 2010 SCab Raptor), and the brake lights seemed to stop working. With the headlights off they'd work fine, but with the headlights on they'd...

    Headlights manually turned on -> Auto off?

    What I'm hoping to do is just leave my headlights on all the time (switch turned to On) but for that to work I'd need them to auto off when the truck is shut down. I tried it and wound up with a dead battery. Maybe I don't have a setting right? Any thoughts?

    Bringing faded black finishes back to life

    I wrote this as an update to my Venom thread (http://www.fordraptorforum.com/f11/add-venom-bumper-rigid-20-led-install-%3D-way-too-many-pics-10133/), but I figured it applied here. So here goes :) Over the past year this bumper has seen somewhere around 25k miles, with maybe 2k of those being...

    I'm looking to sell on my OEM skid that I took off over a year ago. Its dent and ding free, but does have some minor scratching (see pics). Also, has two notches cut to make clearance for a bull bar I was using. Those notches will not affect performance or mounting! They're simply cosmetic...

    I'm replacing my tires and am looking to sell these on. They've got approximately 25k road miles on them and a handful of trips in the dirt. They're in excellent shape; they look to me to have 1/2 tread (or better) life left (see the pics), show no signs of chunking or cracking, and have had...

    Driver seat adj & memory, D&S power mirrors, adjustable pedals... all stopped working

    Well this was a fun way to spend New Year's. I noticed in the morning that my driver's power seat stopped adjusting. After more poking around and testing pretty much everything, I figured out that all the following had stopped working: -all drivers seat adjustable functions -all drivers seat...

    Are the Raptor Cabs and Frames the same as a regular F150?

    Some say yes, some say no. For my part I've searched FordParts.com and AllData too, and haven't found any indication there are separate part numbers to distinguish a Raptor's cab from a regular F150. In terms of the frame I can't say either way since there seems to be lots of Raptor specific...

    SCAB - Rear Passenger Side Door Won't Open

    This is the second time its happened to me where the rear passenger side door on my 2010 Raptor SCAB has stopped working. Specifically, when I pull the inward facing door release handle, I can hear and see the top latch pop, but nothing happens to the rear latch, and so only the top of the door...

    Rear brake clunk/knock/bang when cold at light pedal pressure

    Quick help request: Rear brake clunk after service?

    Hey guys. We just serviced the rear brakes on my Raptor (2010 SCab), but I'm getting a loud clunk when the caliper first engages the rotor. After watching it and experimenting, with her ass in the air if I put her into drive and let the wheels roll, and then lightly tap the brake I can watch...
