Expert Answers about Ford F-150 Raptor

• Wheel Stud Size and Recommended Locking Lug Nuts for 2018 Tandem Axle Futura Trailer
• A 14 inch wheel with a 5 lug/4-1/2 inch bolt circle would use a 1/2 inch diameter wheel stud. For that, I'd recommend the # RG01-150 Wheel lock set by Redline. Each set includes two locking lug nuts and one key. As you can see by looking over the product reviews, this set has been well like by our Customers. For your tandem axle trailer, you'll need two sets of locks.

• What Ladder Rack will Fit with a Retrax XR Tonneau Cover on a 2020 Ford Raptor F-150?
• If you have the t-slots that come along with the Retrax XR, I recommend the Yakima OverHaul HD Adjustable Truck Rack w/ 78" HD Crossbars # Y01151-59 with the Adapter Kit # Y01155 to carry your kayaks. The OverHaul HD will give your truck a sleek black look and provide you with 500 pounds of on-road carrying capacity. As far as the kayak carrier, I recommend the Yakima BigStack Roof Mounted 2 Kayak Carrier System # Y04041. With the BigStack, you will need additional tie-down straps # Y05006...

• Can I use RoadActive Suspension with Timbren SES on 2010 Ford F-150 Raptor?
• Using these two products together is going to be a little bit of overkill, but I spoke with RoadActive Suspension and they mentioned that as long as your current bump stop (which would be replaced by a Timbren system) sits inboard towards the center of the vehicle from the U Bolts and Leaf Springs by about 1/4"-1/2", there shouldn't be any interference with the two components. If you've measured for clearance and have the room, and still wanted to add something like the Timbren SES # TFR1504R...

• What is Best Suspension Enhancement for 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor for Suspension Support Adjustability

This will easily allow you to alternate between the support you want.

• Tow Mirror Solution for 2022 Ford F-150 Raptor that Fits Well
• Since we do not have 2021 Ford Raptor tow mirrors that are custom fit it would seem likely that we won't be getting them for the 2022 either but the great news is we know that the K-Source tow mirrors part # KS3990 fit well as we have had the chance to install them on a similar 2018 Raptor. I attached an install video for this for more info as well.

• Brophy Tie-Down Recommendation for a 2014 Ford F-150 Raptor
• I recommend either going with the Brophy Clamp On Camper Tie-Downs # HSWB or # HSAB depending on if you need that extra little piece that extends out or not. These are universal fits so you will be happy with them on your 2014 Ford F-150 Raptor. The Brophy Basic Turnbuckles w/ Hardware # TDHP are something else you may be interested in to help secure your in-bed camper to your Raptor. I have attached some review videos for you to check out.

• SumoSprings or RAS? Which System is Better for Daily Driving on a 2019 Ford F-150 Raptor?
• The extra tongue weight capacity won't matter because your 2019 Ford F-150 Raptor's is below the 1,500 lbs of the SumoSprings item # SS52GR. Having a higher rated system won't increase your truck's capacity. Since you are concerned about daily driving, I strongly recommend the SumoSprings item # SS52GR over the RAS item # RAS3611. While the RAS system is adjustable the SumoSprings have a built in progressive load control. This means the more weight you put on the rear end of your truck...

• Potential Replacement Latch Assembly for an Extang Ford Racing Tonneau Cover on a 2010 Ford Raptor
• I cannot find anything on the Extang cover you have, unfortunately. It sounds like the cover you have is an OEM part for the Ford Raptor. Without truly knowing what cover it is it's going to be pretty difficult to find the correct replacement. The closest thing I could find that matches the pictures you sent in is the Replacement Front Latch Assembly for Extang Revolution Soft Tonneau Cover # EX1093, which will work on the driver's side of the Extang Revolution. Realistically, we can't...

• Will a Hitch Mounted Bike Rack On a 2018 Ford F-150 Raptor Trigger Blind Spot Sensors
• If you will be carrying bikes on the rear of a vehicle with blind spot sensors then you will want to turn these sensors off while you have the bikes attached as there is a possibility that the bikes or bike rack can interfere with them, same goes for the cross traffic sensors as well. The good new is that most vehicles allow you to easier turn these sensors off via the in dash settings. If you don't already have a hitch mounted bike rack, the Kuat Transfer V2 part # KU24FR is one of my...

• Will the SumoSprings Solo Helper Springs Fit My 2018 Ford F-150 Raptor with 4 Inch Lift Kit?
• It truly depends on whether you have a 4-inch body lift or a suspension lift on your 2018 Ford F-150 Raptor. If you have a body lift, the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle # SS52GR fit and won't be affected by the extra height when installing. These springs will give you more support against squatting/sagging when towing. If you happen to have a suspension lift, the gap between the frames increases by 4 inches. This extra height is too high for the SumoSprings. A great...

• Best Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Bag Kit for a 2014 Ford F-150 Raptor
• The absolute best Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 kit for your 2014 Ford F-150 Raptor is the Stainless Steel Ultimate Plus Air Springs w/ Internal Bumpers # AL38UV. The stainless steel hardware and braided hoses mean they are more resistant to the elements than standard parts and then the internal bumpers ensure the air bags don't get pinched when you don't have much air in them (be sure not to go under 5 psi for this very reason). I always recommend at least checking out an air compressor kit...

• Weight Distribution System for Trailer with Covered A-Frame
• The Pole-Tongue Adapter for Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Systems part # EQ95-01-5950 is designed to be used on straight-tongue trailers and would not work with your a-frame trailer. Since you said that the tongue of your a-frame is covered by the nose of the trailer you will want to consider a system that uses chains and attaches directly to the sides of the frame rails rather than clamping around them. For this, I recommend the Strait-Line Weight Distribution w Sway Control part #...

• Troubleshooting 2018 Ford F-150 Raptor Off Road Skid Plate Issues with Blue Ox Baseplates
• The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # BO74FR is the proper fit for your 2018 Ford Raptor. I reached out to my contact in their tech department and he said that just the 2017 Raptor in the instructions you will only install 2 of the 4 bolts you removed when you took the skid plate off. He said the skid plate may hang slightly lower due to that, but it won't be an issue. He said the safety cables on the brackets may just need to be held up during that installation to keep them...

• Can Trailer Hitch Be Installed on a 2011 Ford F-150 Raptor Without Relocating Full Sized Spare
• All of the trailer hitch options made for your 2011 Ford F-150 Raptor will require you to relocate the full sized spare tire, which means you have a few options available to you: - Purchase a custom made hitch and relocate the spare tire (I recommend the Draw-Tite # 75691 since it has a hidden crosstube) - Have a hitch fabricated to fit with the full sized spare (I'm not sure if this is possible or not) - Find another way to transport whatever it is you're needing the hitch for The...

• Air Lift makes an air bag suspension enhancement kit that fits your 2014 Ford F-150 Raptor that has internal jounce bumpers with the part # AL38UV but we do not have a replacement air bag kit for the Firestone part number you mentioned that has them. Firestone does not have any internal jounce bumpers that they put in their air bag kits.

• How To Mount Weight Distribution System to American Hauler Enclosed Trailer with Existing Brackets
• I do have an option for you but there isn't a weight distribution system specific to an American Hauler Enclosed Trailer. It looks like the old owner welded some brackets to the frame for a system but I'm not sure which one that was. The best option we could offer would involve you first removing the welded on brackets and then installing the Chain Hangers for Reese Weight Distribution Systems part # RP58305. This would then allow you to attach a system like the Strait-Line Weight Distribution...
