Interesting changes you made to the truck. I want to know, why you installed these corners? What do I use it for?

Bed supports. The Raptor beds are aluminum. When you go off road the bed and frame twist, which can rip the metal. When you put more weight on the side panels it can worsen the issue.

I am running KHC

Others are running innov8

Regarding the gearbox oil cooler, when the engine is off does the oil stay in the cooler or does it drain into the crankcase?

It stays in the lines and cooler unless gravity pulls it back. Being spread out horizontal doesn't allow the same type of drain back like the engine.

Do you know if the coolant circuit is return in the gearbox housing? Thank you.

There is no coolant in the transmission...
I think I expressed myself wrong... I rephrase, is the oil in the cooling radiator on the pressure circuit or on the return circuit in the gearbox housing?

Does anyone have a diagram of the oil circuit in the gearbox for Gen2?
