I somewhat took this approach too going for my non-Sas Big Bend as I'm not an off-roader and didn't need the heavy duty armor and equipment needed for protection on trails. Driving dynamics between the lightest and heaviest are certainly going to be different, and that's an important factor for me.

] Thanks, and that's fine with me.

I've had my Oracle taillights for over 18,000 miles with no issues (knock on wood). It's difficult to say if those that have problems are the norm, or just the most visible and vocal. Since those without issues tend not to start threads or post about it. Even without a warranty on mine, I...

Going to a lighter wheel always helps me justify a new wheel purchase as being "not just for looks". Improvements to handling, braking, and acceleration may be difficult to quantify, but it's a certainly a better move than going to something heavier. My 17x8 TK15 Sport Terrains come in at 23 lbs.

Knock on wood, but I have approximately 18,000 miles of use with my Oracle tails and no issues so far.

I pretty much built my own with a Borla Pro XS ($110) mounted in the middle ($50 to weld it on at a local independent muffler shop) and a Red Rock muffler delete pipe ($80) bolted on to replace the OEM muffler. No drone on the highway due to the mid mount location. A bit better tone and volume...

Mine is angled back and how I "comply" with it in Illinois:

Obviously each vehicle has their own advantages and purposes for drivers that want something different. Each is quite capable over nearly any terrain, and a decent demonstration of Raptor functionality and performance while having some fun without being a true test or review. It was just...

That would make me a bit hesitant as well. Seems like things have gotten better with these sets, and they are responsive if there are any issues. Knock on wood, but I've had zero problems with mine. At least they aren't having the issues like the Morimoto tail lights.

Understood, just sharing my own solutions for increasing the front visibility of my own Bronco that works independently of Auto, off, on, parking, etc... Anyway, it'll always be a higher priority to see the front of another vehicle moving towards you than the rear of a vehicle moving the same...

I love this lighting look, and often run this way also with my poverty headlight package. I also added some dual orange DRL/white flood pod lights that I illuminate when desired.

If you ever decide it's a bit too loud or raspy at full throttle, adding something like this Borla Pro XS is an inexpensive way to tone it down a bit while still being deeper and louder than stock. That's what I did after a few weeks of running just the muffler delete, and I feel it's a perfect...

I have had my Flush Oracle tails for 17,000 miles and no issues. While I didn't do the amber turn signals, I'm quite happy with their standard function. Previously halogen, and didn't have to do any Forscan, just the connections with included resistors. For me, it is a nice visual upgrade...

Some folks are just too stubborn to change their opinion based on what they learned years ago that may have actually been factual at the time. And they'll die on that hill rather than accept that things have changed, improvements have been made, and there are modern alternatives that are simply...

So far so good, but haven't had enough snow yet. Since they aren't a mud tire with wide spaces between blocks, they will pick up stones of certain sizes like most any all terrain tire with similar sized tread gaps, but I'm not a frequent gravel road traveler and haven't had stone throwing issues...

While I have a custom Borla setup, I agree that one can get a better tone with the 2.7 that doesn't sound obnoxious. Nice writeup. If you have any pictures or soundclips, even though they don't do it full justice like you mentioned, it's often what folks really like to see and hear.

I'm also running the Outpost nAT, but in 285/70/17 since the summer. Haven't had any real snow around Northern IL yet to test them out. But reviews from others and testing indicate they'll be a typical solid Nokian tire in the white stuff. 17,000 miles with them and they are just starting to...

Sure, we can all drive more slowly and sensibly when accelerating in the rain in 2H and be just fine and dandy. But when at a stoplight on wet pavement, and this guy looks over at you, I'm switching to 4H and putting the hammer down even if I'm driving a Bronco or an old Suzuki Samurai...

Good to hear. Yeah, if you'll be able to have Burger review your logs and then either give you guidance for doing a custom map or sticking with one of their standard maps, then I'd feel more comfortable with it. Have you considered just getting a custom tune from ZFG? That may be the best way...

I wouldn't recommend having a tune and also using a JB4. While it has been done (known as stacking) on some other platforms, you really need to know what you're doing and monitor different variables to make sure you're operating within safe parameters for fuel, ignition timing, and boost, for...
