    Thought about getting a Raptor

    I have not seen one under $54K and I was told by one dealer that there was a premium added too ! Who knows if I had seen one under the $50K mark... MAYBE I would have one now but still $50K plus is a lot for a F150. I do like the RED colored one, but again where did the 5.0L go ?

    Interior is almost done.

    It looks decent enough but to me the blind spot mirror takes up too much of the mirror. The directional strip is a good idea though. I have been looking at some add-on blind spot mirrors, they fit on the bottom of the mirrors where I would want them but so far all I can find are the ones...

    Interior is almost done.

    Actually the “H-Mod-Kit” is from Muth Co, when you buy their directional/heated mirrors glass and don’t have the wiring for the Heat then you need their H-Mod-Kit. I wanted the Directionals in the mirrors and didn’t like any of the mods I had seen, so I went for it. Yes pricey but I think I...

    Looking to swap 2.9 for V8

    Since your profile isn’t filled in there can’t be an educated guess given that wouldn’t be useless. The only engine that fits both 2 and 4 WD and looks good and has plenty of performance add on is the FORD 5.0L. So fill in your profile and get back to us with what you have so we don’t waste...

    Fuel Leak

    My first guess is the Filler Hose, second guess could be the sending unit gasket. Does the gas drip from under the truck when filling, if so the filler hose is cracked. As Shane has stated, only way to find out is either lift the bed or put the truck on the lift and see what’s up !

    Interior is almost done.

    You , might consider it a kit but the mirrors are separate, the harness for the heater is separate and the mirror control is still Ford. It is piece meal, so to speak, but can be used with OEM harnessing. Pricey but not super expensive, a god set of seat covers will cost more than that. I...

    Thought about getting a Raptor

    Ford states less than 20, can’t remember exactly but thinking 16-18 mpg and that $ucks and I think that milage is IF you are lucky. Thinking it should be more like 20-25 if not higher would be more appropriate for this space in time. The 5.0L should be an option, maybe not as fast but I would...

    Open chat thread

    Posting has closed down in every forum I post in, funny. Wondering why ? My old House is almost ready to put on the market. Any good carpenters out there in northeastern MA that need some work ?

    How to Change Transfer Case Fluid

    Very well done. Tip: Fill and drain plugs have pipe threads, (tapered threads designed to tighten as the plug is threaded in), be careful on how tight you make these plugs. The threads will add pressure outward as the plug is tightened and COULD crack the case; remember the OEM case is usually...

    10 inch subs?

    Ok on the MTX setup, doesn't look too bad. I with you on building but I do not possess enough audio skills to build one correctly. I am sticking to the smaller unit from Sonic and hope it will be enough. Good luck, post wheni so when you get your stuff. Ltr

    10 inch subs?

    my friend had two 12s STUFFED behind the seats of a std cab. Ya, the sound was there but he always ran it turned up. I haven’t talked to him in a while but I am thinking he probably would be able to hear me anyway… lol. "I am no audiophile, just want a little bass to balance things out”...

    Thought about getting a Raptor

    Went on line looking again ! The Platinum/5.0/6 sp auto can be purchased for less money and it has a better option listing. Just do not like the four door set up, will have to test drive one and see how it handles. Also, the 13/16 mpg is something to think about; I thought the F150s were over 20...

    RE-Gear Finally !

    Ran into a small problem… the side OEM Shims are too big for the application. I did not want to use a ½” stack of smaller shims so I had the large OEM one turned down some and will fill with the smaller ones. I hope this get done soon… why so long, must be my ADHD woking on the truck too...

    What are the laws in California / 5.0L Ranger ?

    I have heard on other sites that the engine swapping in Cali is a nightmare. I was hoping to have the conversion done by the time I left for SoCal but it seems it isn’t going to happen nor would it help any. I am still up in the air on this, here in MA you can get around it, there must be a way...
