    WTB Gen1 suspension

    Looking to upgrade my 2014 FX4 to some Gen1 raptor suspension since I’m tired of just a Coilover leveling kit. I am looking for any of the associated items (control arms, spindles, sway bar, tie rod extensions, axles) but I’m assuming I will be piecing the kit together. Also if anyone has shock...

    GEN 1 37’s: Fiberwerx alone get you there?

    Will the 2.5 Fiberwerx get you there alone on the Gen 1? Looking for more after taking it hard off-road for the first time. What’s the best way to get more without spending 30k right away? Looking to make this a Mid/Long travel project long term but looking for a little more for the next...

    GEN 1 A/C Seats

    My seats have been super cold whenever I turn on the A/C and super hot when I turn on the heater but this summer my A/C seats don't even feel like they are on. I hear both the bottom and back fans running but I don't feel anything at all. I've also checked to make sure both TED units have a...

    Picked her up yesterday!

    After about a year of searching for the right one, I finally found the Raptor for me. I look forward to learning from the veteran owners, as I am sure there are lots of upgrades to come.

    GEN 1 To catch a tuner...

    Just found 93 octane (E-10) around me and decided to try a tank. Was using 91 ethanol free before. My MPG jumped from 11 to 13 instantly. Haven’t seen above 11.5 for the 5k I’ve had it. Drove around town for 10 miles stop-n-go and it’s holding at 13+/-. Does this sound like there’s a 93 tune on...

    GEN 1 91 E0 or 93 E10? 93 E0?

    Which would you run? Just found some 93 the other day, it’s scarce around me in central IL. I like the way the E0 runs compared to 91 E10 but it makes me feel better putting E0 in. I’ve seen videos that state the ethanol actual helps clean the engine better, and conversely heard the E0 will...

    Bought a Raptor, lots of issues?

    Hi all, I bought a 2011 Raptor with 66k miles back in May and love the truck. It's a monster and I've slowly been adding all kinds of goodies (lights bumpers etc.) When I bought the truck the rear tires were bald and the fronts cupped. Im concerned the cupping was a sign of shock wear now. The...

    Hey guys and gals, I’ve been searching but haven’t found it yet so let me know if I missed it.

    GEN 1 Rebuild Shock Shelf Life

    @Texas Shock Works: Is there any concern to having rebuilt shocks sit on the shelf until you put them on? Got a set rebuilt by TSW and am hoping to wait out the winter to put them on so they don’t get blasted by all the salt here in IL. Should I store them upright since that’s how they ride...

    Looked around but didn’t find anything on this, let me know if I missed it. When at idle speed, the shift from 1st to 2nd seems a little...rough I guess you would say. There’s a good jolt when it occurs. It usually happens while cruising a parking lot to leave for me. Also, it seems as...
