Those 37s weigh more than you would expect.
On our wrangler when we went to 35's I put a LOD rear bumper on that holds the spare with linkage that attaches it to the rear door. So all the weight is on the bumper and not on sheet metal. Even 35's are real heavy so 37's will weigh even more.

That's not a bad idea. I might investigate that for my WT. I was thinking about doing the "spare delete" option as well.

Spare delete looks cool too.
would make the proportions of the Braptor look ridiculous good.

There were several early rear bumper options to move the tire off the swing gate and onto a bumper mount. JCR has a good one with a double swing option from bumper mount.

I have a VIN for the Bronco Raptor but no production date posted. The ford site may not be reliable as I have several connect issues.

Do you have an original eight digit reservation number from 2020, or did you order through the dealer?

If you have a res number use the backdoor link on a PC or Max (X’s = your res number): https://www.ford.com/buy/manage.html?reservationId=Xxxxxxxx

If not call Ford Performance with your VIN and four digit Order Code and ask them what your build week is.

This is truly nuts! I guess Ford is saving the best for last! Lol
Wait, so you just got a VIN and build week?

If so congratulations, and that is a good sign for unscheduled GT holders.

I don’t think dealers are required to fill their GT allocations first. So if a dealer has 7 allocations total and 4 GT holders. They can fill the 3 non GT allocations first and push the 4 GT holders down the line. I can see them doing this especially if they are charging high ADM on their non GT allocations

This is correct. The dealerships can select any allocation/order to have built. GT/time stamp does not have to play a factor.
