Excellent write up. I used this and the Ford instructions to get me through the install. Great info about moving the ac line. The worst part for me was the air tube lower fitting. It was quite a PITA for me. I appreciate the info and pictures.

Thanks for the update. Just purchased one. I have been waiting for this to come back on their site. Note: it's still listed as the Ranger Raptor 3.0L Air/Oil kit, which is nice because there's a 20% off for "Trucks Only" that worked when purchasing online.

I’m curious about this. My screen went black during my last outing. It definitely got hot. Every touch I was starting to wonder if it was going to shut off, and sure enough it did.

Frostbite 2026 at Kansas Rocks Off-road Park.

Nice! I traded in my 2015 Mustang GT and my 21 Badlands for my '24 Braptor. I just wasn't driving the Mustang and it was just sitting in the garage. Figured this was a nice compromise. I have a 73 mach 1 in the garage that needs some love so I still have my mustang. May get another mustang in...

I have seen a couple versions. This looks to be the winner for me. I have a pretty packed garage and I like the way this folds up when not in use (Winter time).

The original Freedom Rock off of Interstate 80 in Iowa. There is one Freedom rock in each of Iowa’s 99 counties. Each rock is painted differently. Kind of a destination if you ever take a trip through Iowa. I took this in late September 2025. I’m retired Navy so of course I took a picture of the...

At SMORR this past summer.

Top of the tires..got it. Great reference point. Thanks for the feedback everyone. Going off-roading next week and it’s supposed to be rainy/muddy. Should be fun!

I previously owned a 21 Badlands with the 2.7l, which the Water/alternator was an issue. I now own a 2024 Braptor and have been wondering if this is an issue for the newer models? You mentioned you have a 22. I did go through some deeper water without issue the last time I off-roaded. Not...

And my first name is Forrest, so I have earned that plate, haha. Pretty sure I have heard “Run Forrest Run” about a million times now. 😆

Yep, just transferred it.

Thank you! Born and raised in Iowa. Black and Gold for me - Go Hawks!

Yes, you are correct. I need to price it out. Thanks!

I just picked up my new 2024 Bronco Raptor last week. I traded in my 2021 Bronco Badlands and 2015 Mustang GT. Loved them both but it was time to move on. I only had 28000 miles on the Mustang and I owned her for nearly 10 years. I am going to miss the coyote gen 2 for sure. But I am definitely...
