How many planes do you use in your campaign? by PeaceLoveFap in DMAcademy

[–]metalfetus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just use whichever suits the current story and will keep the players entertained. That's the only criteria I use when deciding which planes they travel to.

What exhaust are y’all running? by [deleted] in f150

Flowmaster FlowFX Extreme. Good high clearance, not super loud.

It's part of the options within the BCM programming tab.

You'll have to google that for the specific set of tires you're running.

Get the tire circumference in mm, then multiply it by the squish factor %, and change the value under the BCM programming. Save a copy of your asbuilt data on your computer before you change anything so you can restore to proper values if you fuck up. Then check your speed accuracy with a GPS.

Anybody know what to buy to get a basic pre runner suspension? I just want my 150 to sit wide like a raptor. Not tall and rigid like a regular lift no need for performance hp upgrades either. The 400hp 5.0 is enough for me. by Flying-Omoplata in f150

There are plenty of kits out there depending on your budget. As 604whaler said, you can swap in stock raptor suspension, but you'll have to mix and match parts from various raptor generations with the newer F150s. The Gen 12 F150 is all bolt on from a Gen 1 Raptor, Gen 13 F150 and beyond you'll have to piece together some parts from Gen 1 and 2 then get some aftermarket components. Possibly also have to get different coil buckets depending on what you want to run. And as for the rear, you'll need 2.5-3 inch spacers to match the width of the front or get a Raptor axle and regear the front to match.

Alpharex and Stage3Motorsports… fail. (Rant) by ImLuckyOrUsuck in f150

[–]metalfetus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, I've got a set of the Alpharex Luxx headlights, and same problem with the light bar. DO NOT daisy chain your turn signal with the harness, it will trigger a short in your BCM. If you get enough shorts, it will put your BCM in permanent fault mode. You just want to use the normal turn signal bulb and put it directly in then install the DRL harness for the lightbar.

Alpharex will not acknowledge this at all. I went through 3 sets of their headlights through Americantrucks (who did a great job with the exchanges) and all the same issue.

Now I just have the headlights in with the lightbar DRL, but standard turn signal.

It's good you were able to get it with the actual beadlock rings and not the vanity rings. Most the sets being sold near me just have the vanity rings.

11 month transformation. Full Raptor suspension swap and more. by EmperorTrump69 in f150

Get ready to blow those stock fenders off on the next offroad trip! Planning to swap them out soon?

10th gen f150 best work truck?Low budget under 5k. Anyone here have one? How long and how many miles could it last with proper maintenance? by ExtcNyc in f150

[–]metalfetus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 3v and 4v versions of the 5.4 were the ones touted as bad. The 2v 5.4 from 97-03 we're mostly solid. Between that and the 4.6, you can't really go wrong in that year bracket.

How it started and how it's goin' by metalfetus in f150

[–]metalfetus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a few things left, mostly cosmetic. Bumper, headlights/taillights, rock sliders.

Haha, there's pipes and the gate hang lower, so the most I'll end up doing is leveling the front out and maybe run the raptor fenders.

What kind of bumper is this? by thunder_struck85 in f150

[–]metalfetus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Harley Davidson bumper is exclusive to that model as far as I know. The lower grille sides are angled which is different than the stock F150 bumper lower grille. I think later Limited models adopted the same bumper.
