Our BB came with the JBL Sound Bar installed. I hated it. Took it out within the first 2 days of owning it. It blocked the entire rear view and passengers in the rear seat hit their heads on it a couple of times. Sound quality was decent, though.

Been looking at different options for mounting chase lights on the Raptor, but haven’t really found a solution I liked until tonight. I purchased the Pura Vida Off-road recovery board mounting brackets and shelf from @UtahBrandon a few months ago and installed them, but haven’t had time to do...

I don't see why not as long as the fuse block fits in that space. Great idea!

If you end up not having the upfitter wiring under the hood and need to buy/install the factory switches, it's worth looking at other options like the SwitchPros SP9100 instead. IMO, it's an easier install than retrofitting the factory upfitters and will make wiring your lights a simpler...

I can't wait to see those!

I'm one of the few that chose the Big Bend non-Squatch version. Ordered on Oct. 7th, so fingers crossed that I'll see them in the next few weeks! These things look great!

I’m perfectly happy with both, but if I bought them again, I’d buy the Baja’s.

I installed the @RTR Vehicles Project X HP.70 spots on the bumper and am really happy with them. Also got the @4x4TruckLEDs.com KR Offroad Diode Dynamics triple fog kit and Baja Designs LP4 A-pillar lights sitting in the shop, but haven't had time to install them yet. Also used several Baja...

That Pantera is sweet! I asked him about that when I ordered my bracket and he said it was a customer's car. My dad had one of those when I was kid and it was a beast!

What tire/wheel setup are you running? I found the stock BB setup to be fine in Normal mode. Put 37’s on it and found that running in Sport mode where it locks out 9 & 10 was the best performance for that setup. Installed the Ford Performance tune for 2.3L and it made it even better in Sport...

The Tacoma comment is spot on😄. If it's anything like a 4Runner, it's got to have a strong tailwind to even get to 70 mph.

Well said. Something else that's subjective, but still relevant to this discussion, is what's behind you. The only "uncomfortable" stop I've had in the Bronco Raptor was on the expressway from 80-0 in heavy traffic. I was more worried about the driver in the Kia Soul behind me looking at...

Yeah, I think you asked me if they just felt good or actually performed well, which is a fair question. I appreciate your insight and agree with everything you said. Our Raptor is a permanent member of the family regardless of its limitations. Of course, my wife says I've never met a...

I should probably mention that mine is a 2-Door and I have a winch on the front, so that could be why it settled so much. I haven’t touched the rear springs, but it may be different with a 4-Door. I put at least 1000 miles on them before I adjusted anything.

You too, sir!

Have you put many miles on them yet? It took a couple of weeks of driving, but mine settled enough that I ending up adjusting the front preload about 4 full rotations to level it out.

@EIGHTLUG , I appreciate that and couldn’t agree more! Post machining is worth the wait. Speaking of the wheels, there’s another small detail (actually 27 of them) that should make you and the AR crew smile…

Thanks. I had a similar panic stop in my Gen1 Raptor where I knew it wasn't going to stop in time, so I hit the ditch and clearly remember thinking "at least this thing was made to go off-road"😄. During your panic stop, did the Evasive Steering Assist kick in and "help" you steer around the...

Applied Vinyl Sometimes code orange vinyl outlines to a couple of spots on the Raptor.

Man, I really like these things!
