Bwaaaaahaaaaa ha (Maniacal laugh). Nice to hear that! I’m looking forward to seeing the full video soon, should be a ton of great info on all the setups and some fantastic action shots!

‘With a body-on-frame vehicle, the frame takes up the vast majority of suspension loads, so the body – isolated from that frame via rubber mounts — really doesn’t have to be the most rigid thing. But it can’t be a limp noodle, because the body and frame are a system, and relative motion between...

This is a really detailed article on how the Raptor gets it done vs. a standard Bronco. It’d be hard to replicate aftermarket without spending $$$$$ https://www.theautopian.com/how-ford-engineered-the-2022-ford-bronco-raptor-to-be-a-ridiculously-hardcore-purpose-built-off-road-monster/

Can I safely leave any of the following 1) the half rack w/raxpax, 2) just the half rack, and/or 3) just the Raxpax mounted to the top while lifting using a garage smarttop lifter? im looking for a solution for some external carrying capacity that doesnt Significantly complicate the...

The Bronco DR is barely a Bronco, so engine bay comparisons don’t really make sense with production Raptors. Here’s why a V8 can fit below. Also pretty clear it’s a 4 door wheelbase with some long rear quarters to make it a “2 door”

I drift in and out of this thread so maybe I’m confused… These are used Raptors (at least 11 of them today), there’s no ADM. they appear to have bought at auction (likely from individuals who bought at MSRP) at the definition of market price. FMC has nothing to do with these 11 cars...

I’ve got 5 take-offs from my 22 Bronco Raptor with 5k miles, including lug nuts and the 4 hub covers. there are some scratches (marked with blue tape), but no major issues. make me a reasonable offer if you want them

I lose money trading stocks regularly. Sometimes it just doesn’t play out as anticipated. but….No risk, no reward. Im guessing they’ve been printing money reselling Broncos since late 2021, but got caught out on these Raptors as the macro car market has transitioned from sellers to more...

Mine arrived on my doorstep this afternoon. Ordered first morning. shipped on Friday from Las Vegas. Sadly, I’ll ave to wait until after my DV/Mojave trip to install. Haven’t even opened it yet

Wow, that’s one smoking hot Raptor! I’ll bet he hangs out with cool people too! 🤪🤪🤪

That’s great news! It took almost 4 weeks by rail to get delivered to Sacramento area. Your delivery ETA looks reasonable. Once your vehicle ships, you can contact your dealer for the rail car number and track that by phone. Plenty of threads on how to do that in 6g. If your dealer is...

I learned with mine that “produced” does not mean “built”. Produced seems to mean it came off the line. I sat in ‘produced” status for over three weeks. ETAs would change several days before they passed while my Raptor sat in Jurassic Parked. But once it flipped to built, it shipped quickly...

I’m getting 13 mpg for 3000 miles going primarily back and forth to Tahoe, running errands and wheeling somewhere (snow, trails) every other week or so. I’ve pulled off bumper ends, added dual pod lights, light bar and a winch, all mpg reducing modifications though. Plan on 13 mpg if you...

The good, the bad and the ugly. Playing on some Rocks at Folsom Lake Getting stuck in Deep Stuff at Wentworth Springs Throwing a bead another time in deep frozen ruts at Wentworth Springs A little fun ar Walker Ridge / Indian Valley Reservoir Lots of fun in 3 months!

Ha ha. in case anyone’s interested…There is nothing that will mount here except the “disposable” plastic insert.

You’re probably right, the tailgates probably pretty safe. Areas that should get done that may get overlooked are: Headlights. Thank god I did as my bumper tipped while removing it to install my winch and put two big scratches in the ppf. Headlights fine, but ppf is deeply scratched...

I’m interested to helping, I’ll follow on Gold Country Broncos as it gets closer. Thanks for organizing!

Thanks for the feedback. I’m sure I’ll absolutely love the top when it arrives. You make great stuff. I’m sure you got a lot of orders with mine Monday, but how long do you think it will take to ship a basic black top?

I meant it would be nice to have the option to delete the JTops logo pictured below….. I just prefer no decals, logos or Raptor graphics, still considering how to get rid of FP logos on each of the light bar covers.

I think you’ll be one of the last 23s that were converted from 22. The order banks for the remainder of 23 are opening up on March 27th per my local dealer. They didn’t mention how many allocations they got however.
