Install video for OEM ranger raptor beadlocks and 35" nitto trail grapplers on a stock ride height ute. Grinding and cutting was involved and so were some balance beads. Ford Beadlock Manual: performanceparts.ford.com/dow...
They rub, you dont get full suspension travel and articulation, their heavier, their more expensive, harder on the drivetrain, lower fuel econ, slower acceleration. Ford are not stupid, they did their proper research putting 33s on from factory.
You can use a raptor to do groceries or drive it off road. I drive it on extreme off road and have had great success on multiple vehicles with beadlocks. Some people like 33s and others like 35s. Each to their own.
Hi mate I used zinc it as I had it laying around because I use it at work for exposed metal cuts. Any metal sealing paint from your local car part shop will do tho it doesn't need to be anything special.
Hello, is it possible that you can help me with the references for the roof bars? I have NOT been able to find which reference fits perfectly. thank you!! You have a very pretty raptor, these days I'll show you how mine is looking.
Hey Mate, great video, love the editing and music. Its nice seeing someone keep the OEM look of the guards and mud flaps. Heard quite a few people run into issues with tie-rods with low offset wheels, do you plan on driving this thing hard off--road? Sweet Truck and Silvia!
Thanks mate, I don't have clearance issues with tie rods yet and yes this rig will be heavily abused off road soon. I'll have sliders, bullbar and winch soon then I'll take it off road. I'll definitely pack spare tie rods and cvs when going off road.
Thanks mate, alot of people are running your setup I wanted to do things differently. My live valve system is operating at oem spec and the spaces make the wheels fill the guards perfectly.
@@mkivst180 I showed the size difference between metric and imperial sizes in the video as my cruiser has the same tyre in 315/75R16 I wanted to run real 35's with proper offset on the raptor. You can probally get away with stock guards if you run tyres around 34" with stock offset.
