2013 Lariat Baby Raptor Build Thread

Thanks and it's gonna get a little crazier tomorrow with the 35s. I'm trying to get the shocks back on today but I'm still waiting on the resi bracket to come back from powder coating. The guys going to some bike week this weekend and his builds are slowing him down with doing me parts.

The 35x12.5r18 tires, 18x9 Method NVs and Fox shocks are on and the ride a little smoother with the 35s and 18" wheels but these tires weight a ton. The tires rubbed the RPG UCAs so the stock UCAs had to go back on to keep the tires from rubbing at full turn. Also I replaced the ebay drop shackle with a Synergy long travel shackle to make it stronger.

I scheduled the truck to go in for the timing chain rattle issue I'm having under the TSB 15-0131 to squeeze it in before I hit 60,000 miles.
On a positive note, I picked up a new hitch set up earlier since the old 4" drop was maxing out out boat trailer jack and this one is rated to 12,000 for the hitch and 10,000 on the ball. I went with a Bolt lock for the receiver and that was pretty cool being able to key it to the truck.
