honestly I don’t know the intricacies of the change, but looking at my nose heavy landing on the jump compared to @Dgchurch first landing on the jump (no video of that one) there is a pretty difference in the front damping. He definitely fully stuffed it. E-clik may be helping as well, also...

Quality assurance testing! Everything is working great. Re-valve/e-clik feels good. Not the best jump, but you have to work with what ya got!

My truck’s seen a lot of off-road use and abuse from days crawling on Rubicon, other Sierra trails and Moab to long desert runs in the Mojave, DV and western Nevada. At 42k miles it was time to service the shocks. Simple enough if you live close to someone who specializes in tuning Fox Live...

Don’t mix collars and springs. 2”/2” Hyperco (no collar) are the right way to go. IMO

Welcome to BroncoRaptorDefender110.com! Both cool vehicles for entirely different purposes..

I’ve done a few things that I’m happy that I can share. I use this stuff regularly. Tested on the Rubicon and many other Sierra trails and 400-500 mile desert runs. I did rear upper cargo ADD molle panels. I’ve mounted my ARB twin compressor on the drivers side, and fire extinguisher on...

My GUESS looking at the change between F150 Raptor and F150 Raptor R is maybe up to an additional 5’. Probably More if you add 40’s. Hopefully nowhere close to 200’ The F150 V6 brakes are the same as the F150 Raptor R. Apparently Ford wasn’t too fussed adding a V8, 37s and soft long-ish...

Perhaps better stated…..The Bronco Raptor’s braking distance is just terrible. Add the V8 and it’ll be somewhat heavier and you know it’s going to have 40’s adding even more weight and rotating mass ensuring that braking performance will erode even further… A better brake option would be...

IDK. If it cannibalizes any Bronco Raptor sales it becomes increasingly irrelevant (already irrelevant) in Fords lineup. Next generation Bronco Raptor might be standard 7G Bronco Wildtrak with Live Valves, the 3.0 TT, extractors on hood and flares, better seats and lots of raptor decals...

This is all just setting up the next model. it’ll have a Supercharged 5.2 with 40s and long travel suspension from the factory. The interior will be minimalist with no leather, carpet, stereo, sound proofing or electronic technology featured except for power drawer for storing clean underwear...

You guys have got me looking at Raptor Rs now. Thanks… 🤪 The Raptor R looks like a bargain. If you deduct the cost of 37”wheel/tires and 803 package goodies, it’s well under $30k to go from the Eco Boost to the supercharged 5.2. Hmmmmmmm

You can, you just need initial correspondence to be mailed to an out of state address. The warranty is good nationwide no matter where it was purchased. Another one of California’s good intentioned regulations to protect people from shady internet warranty sales, that has the unintended...

Looking at Turns website, I’d say their winch cradle sits about 2.75” lower than the JCR, maybe more. They’re pretty ambiguous on ACC compatibility, but I’d guess there’s a very decent likelihood you’d have to relocate the sensor as well if you have one. There’s a removable winch thread on...

Can’t speak for pros / cons on others , but the JCR winch plate sits up fairly high and doesn’t significantly block the intercooler. The bottom of the winch cradle sits about level with top of the IC, maybe an inch below the mod bumper opening. I’ve had it on since Dec 2022 without issue...

I have a Rigid / Ford Performance roof mounted bar. It throws plenty of light, but like any roof bar, there’s definitely some glare. Spot/driving combo, maybe all spot would have been better as I have two pair of pillar lights too. But for me a winch was a higher priority than lights and...
