Default Mod time small ones

Alrighty

So far I have on order
Extang Series two soft fold Trifecta (my 2016 has a Extang Full Tilt and I really like it on that truck) be here Wednesday afternoon
Spray in bed liner (Speed Liner going in tomorrow)
Window tinted going in on Wednesday 3M ceramic windshield and two front sides

Next is the wheel well liners. I did a search and found Husky with a few not so great reviews. What other brands fit these trucks?

After that I will let some money settle into the Bank so I can figure out what else to get. Lighting or maybe?

Mike

Have your bedliner shop spray the wheel wells. Much better than a liner.

I asked them to, they said their spray gun will not allow to fit into the wheels. He showed me the hopper and the gun to prove he was not trying to lie to me. He said it cost to much to get a smaller gun for just a few jobs per year.

Thanks

If they remove the wheels it will work just fine.

I dunno what year your truck is, but my dealer mod guy told me to be very careful about wheel well liners that they claim will fit a Raptor. The part that covers the air shock is extremely close to the airlines and may rub up against them. I have always had well liners on every truck I have owned but will wait this time till I know for certain that there is one that will fit that will not rub on the shock air lines. When I had my bed sprayed I talked to them about the wheel wells, and they will do it for $75.00 each... and they take the tires off to spray. takes em 1 hour.

I figure if he said no he can't do it, I really don't want him to.

Thanks for the info on the liners. Still trying to figure out what ones. I am not in a hurry

No air shocks on a Raptor.

Those are wires for the active shocks.
