What did you do to your Ranger Raptor Today?

[miniR]

Installed Signature Lux amber DRL modules, love the new look.
Should have been OEM like the F-150 and Bronco Raptor’s.

Does anyone elses hood shake (lift) on the freeway? I’ve adjusted everything right and the hood lifts in the corners like crazy.

No. Are you sure it's fully shut? I've had multiple people complain they have to "slam" the hood, and I do have to drop it from a good 18-24 inches for it to actually shut, but it doesn't wobble or shake on.

Yeah, I followed the TSB again yesterday and finally dialed it in. Had to bring my latch 3/16 lower for everything to work again.

TSB - Technical Service Bulletin. You can take your truck into the dealer and have them do this repair. Or, do it yourself since it’s very easy.

Yes. Just make sure the engine bay mounted hood bumps are making contact. (there is one per side, black little mushroom tip that can be screwed in or out).

Altogether I was probably around 5 hours. It’s not as daunting as some have described, you can easily see both modules, but both sides are tight working spaces. I was able to remove all six screws from the top, rather than from the bottom through the wheel wells. Removing the horn on each side frees up working space, and only one bolt on each horn bracket to remove.

The top two screws on each side require patience, and a flexible T-15 tool, but they are doable. The bottom screw on each side is a little more difficult to reach, the passenger side is visible, just requires some finesse to reach and remove. The drivers side is very difficult to see (I did remove three screws and four plastic plugs on the wheel wells liner so I could see, I also removed three bolts and one plastic push plug on top of the drivers side fender, then pushed it outwards and placed a screwdriver in the plastic push plug hole to hold it….this gave me just enough room to get my hand between the fender and the module) but once spotted, it’s reachable from the top, again requires patience, finesse, and swearing.

On both sides, once the modules are removed, it’s easy to change out the module boards, and then some swearing during the replacement is all that’s required.

In the end….it’s totally worth it, for me anyway, I really like the look….as the front of a Raptor should look.
