    Clear bra on lower section of door?

    Here's mine. Sort of an "after and before", photo if you look at my signature. It's a 3m vinyl. Works great to keep the brushy stuff from scratching. http://www.fordraptorforum.com/images/styles/ford/attach/jpg.gif

    Steering tie rod boot

    Had my wheels off again today. Did an inspection while they were off. Found the exact same cuts in my driver's side tie rod boot. I'm at 35,000 miles now. Anybody have a more permanent fix for this issue? Gonna take it in this time to see if they will fix under warranty. Can't help but wonder...

    They look great! How's the ride different from stock (if that is what you had before) and the road noise?

    Extended Warranty - Yes or No??

    Ford ESP I have read many complaints about Ford's ESP on the internet. Most say don't buy it. But usually the only people that make comments are the ones that have a bad experience. People that have good experiences don't post much. Anyone have any good examples of how well the ESP works?

    Driver side Rubber Mat Snaps

    Thanks YJ, I got it back on. They actually just pull apart and snap back together after they are in place.

    Driver side Rubber Mat Snaps

    Took the Raptor into the car wash the other day. They pulled the floor mats out. Later I found a plastic round thingy on the floor. The floor mat snaps to the carpet with two plastic snaps that are integral with the rubber mat. It is one of these. They somehow pulled it out of the rubber mat...

    Mid Perch Question

    In the photo above, you can see the blue part of the shock that says SVT on it. An inch or so below that is a groove. So that shock is at mid perch. If it were on the top perch you would see two grooves an inch or so apart. Bottom perch--no grooves.

    Steering Rumble

    I have a problem with my 2013 Screw. During slow speed hard turns to the left, there is a pronounced rumble both heard and felt through the steering wheel. Does not do it turning right. Otherwise normal. Seems to be getting worse over time. I am on second perch. Otherwise stock front end. Any...

    Raven on a Raptor

    The last two miles of road leading up to my house is chip seal. And it is very broken, potholes and such. I only had the original leafs on for about a 1000 miles before changing. Honestly, I didn't see a huge difference. I also went to mid perch at 1000 and so got a little stiffer ride from...

    Raven on a Raptor

    These are the stocks shocks, yes. If you look at the picture of the two bumps side by side, you'll see they have a threaded valve stem on top. The mounting bracket is like a cup, upside down, with a small hole thru it. The threaded stem of the bump goes up thru it from the bottom and a nut...

    Raven on a Raptor

    This first picture shows the two bumps. This next is the 2.5 bump with nothing loaded in the bed. The next is the 4 inch bump thru the wheel well. And the last is the 4 inch with the camper loaded. Truck sits level. 250 psi in the 4 inch bump. Can go much higher.

    Raven on a Raptor

    Wouldn't have been doable without the rpg stage 3 and 4 inch bumps. I ordered the standard duty national leaf springs with the rpg stage 3 kit. It rides extremely well. In deep sand or over rocky terrain it is very stable. In fact I have gotten to the point where I have quite a bit of confidence...
