I never found the source, but it's been considerably less noticeable since getting an alignment. The shop verified that all parts were reinstalled correctly and they weren't able to replicate the noise. I've pretty much tuned it out at this point.
Thanks! I can't say with 100% confidence, but I'm almost certain the spacer diameter and bolt pattern are the same front to rear. Hopefully someone else can chime in and validate that for you.
I didn’t install them at the time because I wanted to see what the rake looked like with just the front spacers. I haven’t installed them yet and am still unsure whether I’m going to install them.
I’m not aware of any videos for the rear. There are two bolts that hold the shock guards on, three...
Hey all! I recently installed a 2” front spacer on my Raptor and struggled to find a good video of the process. Instructions are great, but videos give me way more confidence in my ability to not mess up a project. Historically speaking, I’m very good at messing up these types of projects.
I...
Interesting. Wonder if they’re just trying to phase out the 2.7L and streamline powertrain offerings. I’ll be curious to see if it’ll be detuned at all.
My understanding is that if you don't recalibrate your ride height sensors, the headlights will auto adjust to the correct height. I did recalibrate the ride height sensors, so the truck updated the "home" position of the headlights, and they were pointing way high.
Just wanted to put out a quick public service announcement...
Be VERY careful not to strip the vertical adjusters on your headlights! I tried to adjust mine after installing strut spacers on my Raptor and noticed the driver's side headlight was not moving up or down. Not sure if I stripped it...
That's a garbage article that's just meant to bring website traffic. Absolutely zero effort put into it.
Regardless, it is a criminally underappreciated truck.
I’ve got a 2” front spacer. No rubbing in forward or reverse. I did have the truck airborne over the weekend and didn’t rub anywhere. OEM crash bars and splash guards in place and untrimmed. Visually, it does look like a large compression event with the wheel turned sharply could rub on the...
When I put my level and 35s on, I did the ride height recalibration using Forscan and updated my tire size with the Procal tuner. I don't believe you need to recalibrate your ride height on the XLT as they're just "dumb" monotube shocks.
It was extremely easy to change tire size with the Procal...
Probably not. I don't imagine the power output from an NA 5.0 would be much different than the V6 with the procal tune. The V8 rumble would be awesome, but not enough to justify it financially.
