    Bronco Raptor Wheels on 2013 SCAB

    I bought my 2013 Scab with new bronco raptor wheels and the 37 KO2s they come with. After off roading it in the desert at speed, I really noticed the body roll in the turns especially as I have the swb model. At first I thought I should put some spacers on the wheels as you can see how they're...

    Front end noise in 4wd and 2wd

    I picked up a 2019 raptor with 69k miles, there’s a front end noise that happens in 4h, 4a and 2wd, I don’t believe it’s the iwe, sounds more like gears. Take a listen and tell me what you think, sounds the loudest around 30-40mph. Sound changes with speed not rpm, coming from the front end...
