Maybe I missed it, but do you think you'll end up getting the UCA from GOAT as well? From their articles, it sounds like they recommend it for the 2"/1" kit.
Hey all, I was out wheeling a couple weekends ago and encountered an issue; just wanted to post about it so that it's here in case anyone runs into the same problem.
I was going downhill at a 2-mph crawl in 2nd gear in 4L. I decided to downshift to 1st gear to slow the crawl because I was in a...
Dropping the wiring harness into the wheel well is far more difficult on the raptor than it is on the regular Ranger (as shown in the video). I think I ended up taping the wiring harness to a clothes hanger and using that to guide it into the wheel well so I could connect it to the side marker...
Hey guys, I've been browsing for a while and figured out that I definitely want to lift the truck enough to clear 35" tires. I want to keep the stock beadlock capable wheels as well.
If I get the GOAT strut spacers, will I need to do anything to the UCA? I want to actually increase the off...
I can hear a difference. It sounds like it has a little more of a gurgle at the low RPMs which is nice, but it still sounds like an angry wasp at higher RPMs. I'd rather increase induction noise and I'm trying to figure that out still. Probably an upgraded intercooler and maybe a CAI?
Agreed 100%. It looks great, but for ~$3K with lights included, it just doesn't seem worth it. I guess what you're buying is a quality bumper that's compatible with most of the truck's OEM features (sensors, camera, etc.).
This is also a stupid question, but how do you mount a license plate to...
It wasn't an issue of tapering the back of the lights like they say on the website - my issue was getting the top and bottom dimensions to fit inside the grill housing. It was just too tight of a squeeze.
I had similar issues with my installation. They just don't fit and that's clear as day. A dremel isn't going to make them fit. They also do not easily connect to the side markers - you need to partially remove the panel in the wheel well to get to the wire tap-in harness. I only found this out...
Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll definitely look into those containers. I tried searching, but couldn’t really find a DIY project that coincided with my preferences.
I'm looking to organize my bed a little bit more securely. I have a couple of off-roading/camping trips planned for the summer and would prefer if my bags, containers, and gear weren't rolling around in the back.
Problem is, the molle panels are ridiculously expensive and the OEM cargo rails...
This was a bit easier (once I managed to get the harness down there) than soldering and all that. I’m a novice when it comes to anything electrical, so apart from the actual process of getting everything where it needed to be, tapping into the side marker wires with the provided hardware...
Not sure why it posted before I could add body text. These look great, but the install was pretty annoying. As I already knew, the lights don’t fit at all. I don’t mind them sticking out a tad (as shown here), so I didn’t bother with a dremel.
You also can’t fit a 1/2” drill bit into the grill...
Thanks for the response so long after the most recent post. I ended up having to move aside the panel inside of the wheel well. Otherwise, there was no way I was getting that harness down there.
