Did an event last weekend with the Braptor. Ran hard so wanted to change the fluids again.
Had already changed the Front Diff, Rear Diff and transfer case around Christmas with about 18k on the clock. All Amsoil. 75W110 up front, 75W140 in the rear.
Have 28k on the clock now.
Did the the front...
Was BSing so did not even think to check. Will check next time
The forest road are nice especially by your self.
AOAA and Rausch are both great, but you need at least two vehicles to go
Went up on Friday night for a run at AOAA on Saturday. First 'real' run. I have done wharton forest (forest roads and mud pits) but no serious trails until Saturday.
4 hour drive in traffic was absolutly fine, I was very impressed. Road noise was not bad, a little hum from the tires but radio...
Thanks
I agree on the black but need to work up to them. Would prefer no body damage but I know stuff happens!!! Last run guy broke a tail light another bent his metal flares.....
It does look awesome 😎 keeps me smiling!!!
Still love my Braptor but the are polar opposites and are purpose...
Damn social media is everywhere!!!🤣🤣
Yup, went up on Friday night for a run at AOAA on Saturday. I have done wharton forest (forest roads and mud pits) but no serious trails until Saturday.

Thank you very much and you ain't lying she was sitting in my driveway all weekend and every time I pulled up I'm like wow she looks good! I know I'm biased I don't care!
Had to take off picture when I was standing on my front porch!
Nope, had a leak before but they fixed that I remember correctly it was coming out of the input shaft on the tranny
Now this time it was the starter. Luckily happened in my driveway just before I was about to go to a run started once no problem turn it off tried to start again wouldn't happen so...
There she goes off to the dealer!
Failed to start over the weekend luckily in my driveway because I was going on a run. Banged on the starter got to turn over turn it off two more times started right up third time was a charm she was dead so off to the dealer for warranty hopefully no issues!
There she goes off to the dealership! I know the techs are not going to be happy with me with my updated skid plates 😅. Hopefully it's a quick turnaround and I'm trying to get them to install the ProCal at the same time we will see what happens
I've run a mine on the highway 80 miles an hour and like was said by @Bmadda I don't hear anything from the portals. We have the same tires and I do have a little road noise from the tires and I'm comparing to my daily driver is a Bronco raptor which is quieter but I don't hear any noise from...
That's awesome to hear and great report. I 100% agree that this vehicle is super capable and I'm very cautious doing things because it wants to do s*** that I'm like well let's think about it which normally I don't 🤣. That is awesome you got to do it a little herding with your Bronco!!!
This...
So it would be like putting 5.73 on the rear?
Yeah you an anomaly 🤣
Mine is off, about four at slow speeds and up to about 6 at 80. So I just always figure 6
So question for all you smart guys out there. With the portals in the equation. What does the final drive be considered? Right now I have 4.7 in the rear and I know the portals do the gearing at the tires but what would be the equivalent rear to what we end up with at the tire?
Just curious!
Yeah thanks for the reminder, that is one of my concerns about the rotors I actually want to get a backup set just to have them that way you don't have to search for him when you need them.
