  1. Joined the Sag & Tilt Club (and Partially Solved)

    Thx. Corners for L-R only? I don't expect F-R will be close to 50-50 (stock or loaded up). You're dialing in pre-load, correct? Adjusting based on corner loads, ride heights or both? My load is pretty symmetric L-R, but obviously (due to permanently set rear springs) much more rear than front...
  2. Engine bay wiring for accessories (including ARB brushless twin) w/ SAPS and power distribution module (PDM) - my custom DIY

    Amazing thought/care/detail put into your setup @tcovington . Glad the EOS SAPS could be a part of it. @SierraBronco has helped so many here, not with just his wild builds and honest reviews, but with his experience and input on electrical safety. Let's see your rig out doin' Bronco stuff!
  3. Factory wheel & tire weights - All Models

    Are these figures (at least in the OP) spec values or weighed by a member here values. Most people don't have accurate enough scales for the differences. My factory Raptor, non bead lock capable wheels: 30.75 lb Factory 37" K02 tires 73 lb (Bridgestone spec is 65 lb) Very accurate, trade...
  4. Trail welding w/ vehicle battery?

    Love these little snippets. Tell us more. My childhood was awash with very dangerous science-y experiments...
  5. California 2 Free Rotopax Mounting Kits (No "Hubs")

    I should have bought just the central Rotopax hubs to mount directly to my roof rack cross bars... These kits came with these plates, lots of hardware and the "hubs". This is for everything EXCEPT the hubs. You know the routine, don't take them unless you are going to use them yourself. $6...
  6. Bronco TEAM 301 @ San Felipe 250

    Is this the only Class 3 truck? Guaranteed 1st if finish?
  7. E85 - Simple Yes or No

    One will need to be beyond the Ford Performance tune to have any power increase above 93 octane. There may be a small bump, but not noticeable. It just isn't designed for such. A real custom tune will support more power up to about 98 octane. Neat (pure) ethanol (EtOH) is 100 octane on the...
  8. Joined the Sag & Tilt Club (and Partially Solved)

    OK, not entirely solved... I'm only measuring fender gaps instead of the official procedure which I posted here in its own thread. Given the stiffness of the fenders, it should be a reasonable proxy. Unfortunately, it seems my truck still has a consistent passenger side lean of about 1/2"...
  9. Are MT Baja Boss AT noticeably sluggish on a Braptor?

    Yes, of course, typo and corrected. I check on the tire, not ground.
  10. Are MT Baja Boss AT noticeably sluggish on a Braptor?

    Cover a few knobs fire/aft thoroughly with sidewalk chalk. Roll vehicle very slowly over smooth/flat concrete or asphalt for 100' or so. If more dense chalk remains in the center of the tire you are under inflated, more dense on edges over inflated. Lather, rinse, repeat. Very accurate...
  11. Save on Fuel (and get more power) - How to Properly Blend with Ethanol

    To be clear, input appreciated and ZERO insult heard/assumed!
  12. Are MT Baja Boss AT noticeably sluggish on a Braptor?

    I didn't measure their diameters nor radii, but I did chalk test both. Low 30s in the K02s vs. mid 20s for the higher load rated MTs reflect the stiffer MTs. I knew they would be lower but wasn't expecting that low.
  13. Are MT Baja Boss AT noticeably sluggish on a Braptor?

    I weighed my factory stock 37 K02s between 70 and 73 lb with a very accurate scale. My MTBBs weighed right on spec at 80 lb. I don't feel any difference and you can't either. This, accounting for the doubling effect of rotating mass, is the some as having a 56-80 lb kid riding in your ~6000 lb...
  14. Save on Fuel (and get more power) - How to Properly Blend with Ethanol

    GIGO was more as to ethanol levels and reserve tank volumes (and octane if not using my App on the current fill). Those can easily be in error, significantly. I'm still not even close to turning a profit. I did all the R&D and prototyping (not paying myself obviously) then I just paid a young...
  15. Save on Fuel (and get more power) - How to Properly Blend with Ethanol

    If you want the most accuracy and flexibility ALL of the inputs are required and nothing is left out. Nog sure what you're asking here but I am think I answered it immediately above anyway. Garbage in, garbage out. Any error in any input will translate to an error in the results. For EtOH...
  16. Save on Fuel (and get more power) - How to Properly Blend with Ethanol

    Remember to note/memorize any current blend (octane and %EtOH) as the input for what's in your tank for the next blend. Also note that % full should be calculated based on the tank volume plus the reserve. For example, if your tank capacity is 9 gal. and indicates empty after consuming 9 gal...
  17. Save on Fuel (and get more power) - How to Properly Blend with Ethanol

    Absolutely. But subsidies affect so many things including food staples. I don't know if there is any calculated or observed limit nor sweet spot. That said I doubt your FP tune will adjust much beyond 93 octane and that's going to be over E10 on 87-91 pump. I'd probably shoot for 94 octane...
