RC MUSTANG Azure Gray Raptor Build

[RCMUSTANG]

Powder coated the leveling spacers code orange. Not that you can see them. Gained about 1.25-1.5" lift in the front. Calibrating ride height has been made supe easy now. Connect to Forscan, click on wrench icon, scroll down to VDM Ride Height Calibration, hit the Play icon at the bottom, click yes on the prompt, enter fuel level, click OK. Takes about 10 seconds and it's done.

Enabled Lincoln power mirror fold. This allows the mirrors to fold when you lock and only unfolds when you open the door and sit and/or hit the ignition if the door was already open, instead of opening everytime you open the door. This is done by change mirror fold mode to Lincoln in both the PDM and DDM modules.

While I was leveling the front I test fitted the 6 piston brake kit and the ROW bracket that originally came with it fit. There is a little spindle clearance required. Just need to verify the braided line is the same. Unfortunately the stock raptor wheels don't give you the minimum needed clearance between the rotor though.

Per the Gsheet it says - Note: the tradeoff of using Lincoln Autofold is that puddle lights won't work

Is this true? Are your puddle lights now non-functional?

I use silent mode. So, they don't light up. They do light up when it's running and the door is open.

The Kicker amp ended up pairing nicely with the Skar under seat 10" sub. I'll say that it's probably near as good as the $1000 JL Audio version. You do have to slam the seat bottom a tad to get it to latch. It's got a pretty tall grille. Left the factory sub in and tapped the LOC from the stock sub harness. I did disable the ANC/FAKE ENGINE NOISE with forscan. Not sure if that did the trick or not but I don't really notice any bass drop-off at 18 vol.

Doors don't sound like tin cans anymore.

Added the T harness between the 12v socket for future access accessory. Same one that I pulls pulled from my 2019 and used in the Fusion.

Swapped the dash center speaker with an 3.5" Infinity that's been sitting around doing nothing. Highs are a little clearer now. Might do the tweeters later.

Forgot I installed this in the morning. Lol. Bass control knob.

As done on previous Fords to adjust the accuracy of your Distance To Empty (DTE) you hold the OK button down and then hit the ignition button, whether push button or turning the ignition key on. ET will pop up on the screen. Hit OK till the prompts are gone and you see the engineering screen. Scroll up once and you're at the DTE adjustment. Do the math and divide your actual hand calculated mileage with what's on the DTE. EXAMPLE 18.6÷18.9=0.9841269841 change the number on the DTE screen to 984 and hit enter. That will adjust you to true DTE. This will allow those of you with the big aftermarket tanks to calibrate. Forscan doesn't do this function.

MILspec bed liner on bed and skid plate. Even made the compressor mounted in the bed fender cavity quieter from inside the cab. Sprayed lower bumper fascia with some Herculiner just to kill the bright silver.

Molle panels ready but the hold down hook hardware is now going to be a nightmare to remove cause they sprayed over them.

It's a blessing and a curse. I had to help my buddy swap the fuel pump sender on his trailblazer today.
