[@annmariepaoli6460]

Raptor is already looking dope mate, this one is gunna look sick

[@Jacobtheunwise]

Sick! I hope this raptor is more reliable than the last one

[@YNH1225]

Wow your raptor look so cool! I also want to replace it with 35, but I have a few questions. What is the height of the vehicle? Does the upper arm ball joint need to be replaced after spring replacement? As far as I know, is it true that the ball joint needs to be replaced?

[@trevorsmith9251]

And the modifications begin 🤙

[@AnmolSingh-mm5gm]

Hey Luke, where did u get the indicators and the protective piece in the back from. Could you please show us the link. Thanks, raptor looks sickkkkkk 👍👍.

Ebay mate

Good old epping bowl in the intro🙆‍♂️👍

[@dirtydoggey]

Mate: - 35’s look bloody nice! - thanks for the vid on installing the indicators in the side mirrors - for a sec there I thought they were blue lol 🤦🏽‍♂️ Awesome vids mate glad the old YT algorithm helped me stumble across your channel man it’s the shit!

[@Lukefink]

Thanks for joining

[@golferchin76]

re-valve and re-pressure shocks to match with spring rate and is a rare art.

[@ryankelso7980]

can you put links to where your getting these little goodies from?

[@AnthonyWilliams-cr9fx]

Should paint the recovery points blue now

[@joshrudden7769]

Can you post a link for the indicators?

[@gen1c8rs88]

I would go 2 inch in the front and 1 inch in the back as the 35's take up 1 more inch in upward tyre travel.

[@imfadn342]

Ripping the old shed skatepark heaps of memories there 👌👌

[@mdbacolod]

What make and model is the spring compressor they used? Looks like a well made tool. 👌🏼

[@Lukefink]

Unsure all there stuff is top notch

[@dbjury]

How do you find the ride now? I put in some lift springs and instantly hated the ride. Was way too stiff. Happy running factory.. To gain the lift you must be running stiffer springs? The revalve so it doesn't go into stuff valve while riding normally?

[@Lukefink]

Your valving needs to match your height or the car will ride like shit vs stock. These springs are longer but softer than stock the ride is amazing! As good if not better than stock

[@supercarsnz8730]

@@Lukefink Hopefully someone in NZ can help me out. It must mainly be the valving issue mmm, also didnt realise you got a new model! cheers

[@DSiri0039]

Hey Luke can you keep us posted how the no mud guard goes for you over rainy season. I'm thinking of taking mine off as mine also scrub but don't want rain mud to splatter all over my doors. Cheers bro

[@Lukefink]

I didnt have them on the old raptor and didnt bother me to much as my tires stick out past the mud guards anyway

[@DSiri0039]

Ah cheers bro. No problems with stone chopping the body paint or tar? Love your vids mate

[@Lukefink]

I've been looking ages for it but can't find it. You found anything similar?

Looking schmick mate! Would you recommend getting the gears done with the 35s?

[@Lukefink]

Nah i really th8nk these where ment for 35s

[@yourmotherlovesit]

The difference in caster is to stop wandering left due to the camber in the road, actually common practice for wheel aligners that know what they are doing. Just because it hits doesn't mean the alignment was incorrect. What are the camber/caster specs now?

[@Lukefink]

i specifically asked him to put extra castor in the first time around it was rubbing so hard i couldnt actually turn.. its no 5 deg and 4.7 deg

[@yourmotherlovesit]

@@Lukefink ah right, yeah if there was room for more, you would be silly not to go the extra. only takes 2 seconds

[@Lukefink]

@@yourmotherlovesit it was 3.5 and 4.7 from the guy before

@@Lukefink hey luke i just put 315/70/17 on mine and they recon they could only put 2.5 deg of caster do you think they where just talking shit ?

Hey Luke what's better a locker or lsd for drifting?

Mechanical lsd is king but tightly shimmed factory lsd or weldy is more than fine

[@fint3810]

The rake is designed with towing in mind

[@Lukefink]

People dont buy a raptor with only 2.5 ton towing capacity with towing in mind tbh

[@fint3810]

True but your van is a consideration! Lots of people in other 4wd groups with respect to IFS front ends say they get a little naughty when you flatten them out. Aesthetically pleasing though 👌🏻

[@mitch9252]

Hello guys, i think the nose down of all brands of SUV is actually to enhance the braking. If the front of the vehicle is high and you hit the brakes, the weight takes time to transfer over the front axle to get full effect of the brakes.

[@Lukefink]

@@fint3810 no dramas with the old setup. I went airbags for the cape but i regretted it

[@Lukefink]

@@mitch9252 the raptor tranfers weight really good anyway but i havnt noticed any different in braking tbh main difference has been 35s

[@chrisblatherwick6569]

Offset on the wheels? What is the size of the 35?

[@Lukefink]

35inch is the tire size +20 offset

[@LS1able]

How are the ati wheels do they balance well ?

[@reeceaustin5639]

hey mate, how much did this cost. also how many inches did you come up in the front ? looking to do the same to mine

[@Lukefink]

Its about 1600 drive in drive out. Went up about 2 inches in the front

Are your videos ever going to go for longer then 20 minutes per video other people are doing 40 to 50 minutes a video

[@Lukefink]

I have done plenty of 40 and 50 minute videos. The viewership s Drops dramatically after 10 to 15 mins so sometimes its a bit not worth it but with that said when i have enough content i do make longer videos
