Ah perfect! So Eibach HD in the rear and regular Eibach up front? Is it hard to paint/powder coat a spring? I'm just trying to make it less obvious if I need warranty work.

I will be running my '23 Raptor 37PP in an overland configuration, right at about max Payload for its whole life (~1,300lb). Does the 37PP have different springs than the regular Raptors? Would you guys recommend upgraded springs, collars, both? The weight really makes the truck squat...

Has anyone installed a front locker on their Raptor? After having a Power Wagon and moving to my 2023 V6 Raptor 37, there are some instances being in Colorado (rocks/lifting wheels) that a front locker would really help out. I'm not talking big boulders...

I'm just going to keep a couple spare tie rods in the truck for off roading. Would rather have a rather easy and cheap repair on the trail than a steering rack go out leaving you stranded.

I looked into it and it's quite terrible. 5K BTU is tiny. Just for reference, an economy car has about a 20K BTU air conditioner. Yes.

The Ring camera only uses the OBD-II port for power. You could use a Y-adapter to get more cameras. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L41AKH2/?tag=fordraptorforum-20 They also make extensions if you want to try and get the camera in the bed...

Those black metal bed caps like RSI and RLD get EXTREMELY hot when in direct sunlight. I know, I have one. You'd have to spray in at least an inch of foam insulation in the entire interior of the cap to even have a mobile air conditioner unit be able to keep up. Murphy's law, a system will fail...

Not true, 37's are more comfortable and soak up bumps and pot holes better. And more ground clearance and comfort for off roading.

You can take a wire brush to the surface rust but I don't think it will do much work. The spray does all the work.

That's not "severe rust". Literally spray some of this stuff on it and you are good to go: https://www.amsoil.com/p/heavy-duty-metal-protector-amhsc/

lol I never bought a Tesla to "prove anything". They are efficient per/mile (especially when charging from home), quiet and very peppy. Obviously my care about the "eco" side of it isn't that huge, I mean I bought a 37 Raptor for Peet's sake. A Tesla really only takes ~20 minutes to charge if...

I just got rid of a new Rubicon Gladiator. I thought it was going to be my retirement truck, but after a few road trips and then making the mistake of driving my 37 Raptor.. it was game over. I could not put up with the noisy Gladiator wandering all over the highway for a decade plus. Sure, I...

Not sure what you mean by this? I've taken my Tesla's on long road trips many times.

Off-roading in my '23 37PP with no Torsen, I've never seen my front brakes send power to the wheel still in contact with the ground, ever. No matter the mode selector. I literally don't think the truck has brake biased traction control at low speed.

Wonder what the legality is of selling a truck with $7K worth of repaired damage as "new" is. Guaranteed that truck driver faces no consequence for this. Our society is moving towards consequence-less-ness.

I just did a 12 hour road trip in my new Raptor 37. It did exceedingly well. Before I bought it, I really compared everything out there to see what would be the best road trip vehicle that can still be good at off road and have enough room for two adults, two german shepherds, our luggage and...

Ford in that article went on and on about how awesome the front Torsen is. Then they removed it from ALL 2023+ Raptors lol.

I was going to get a "Lockerdown" until I found out they are selling a $15 Chinese filing cabinet electronic lock for their "console safe" for $150. These companies are so LOL. https://www.guublock.com/d153-product/

I once looked at the AT4X, but it doesn't have any lane centering let alone Super Cruise, and has tiny little 33 inch tires. The build came to $90K, no thanks. You get more truck and comfort with the Raptor.

Oh god please let my truck not be recalled for this. All I need is my truck to be gutted by a bunch of retards at the dealership.

I really enjoy my adaptive cruise with lane centering. Not super intrusive, it just works. It works everywhere besides only mapped roads with Bluecruise. And none of that eye-scan BS.

Before I picked up my truck, from just seeing photos online of Azure Grey, I definitely thought I was going to be on the fence when I went to go see it. But that vanished when I saw it in person. In the shade or at night, it has a deeper "flat" look to it. But in the sun it has a nice metallic...

I think the bottom line is.. who in the hell would select an open diff (All 23's) over having a Torsen up front. It's scummy for Ford to say they "rolled in" the old package into the base Raptor then remove stuff without explicitly acknowledging what they removed.

I totally disagree. Having owned a hugely varying type of vehicles, including many off-road vehicles and Tesla's, it's a very nice feature to have. I traded in a Jeep Gladiator Rubicon, as the reduction in comfort and terrible highway character wasn't worth the off-road chops. Even though that...

I got a quote from a local shop for $8K to PPF my whole truck. I basically LOL'd. They have to be making MASSIVE profits on this service. Spend almost 10% of the vehicles cost just to prevent some paints chips and scratches.. on a rapidly depreciating asset seems silly. You will never get...
