RCMUSTANG's Magnetic FX4

[RCMUSTANG]

Since my previous attempts at chase lights kept ending up too dim I figured why not use the bright enough stock hazards? Used a wig wag flasher module with diodes so it won't feedback into the stock system. Hazards and turn signal unaffected when off.

Let's see if the Airaid intake is any better than the stock box, AFE scoop and K&N drop in filter combo. The main opening is a bit better on the AFE scoop but overall the Airaid is much bigger than AFE and stock to the box. The box to the stock half of the hose is definitely better than stock. Now if only someone would make the half of the hose to the turbo side.

New 6bd antenna and magnetic mount. Added a second gasket for sealing. NMO cover for when I'm not running the radio.

I think I'll keep this setup for emergency fuel. For $91.28 it ain't no Rotopax but I'm cool with that.

Cool setup! Where does one acquire that?

I love this idea, but I wish they had one fitted for the front side of the wheel wells. I already have the swing boxes mounted in the back. I know I could probably buy and cut but that seems wasteful.

Which wig wag did you use, and did you splice directly into to the existing harness?

Cut wires because I had to use diodes to prevent feedback into the stock system.

Great idea and no longer need to carry separate traction boards !!

They're a bit slippery.

Experimenting with raptor bump stops.

Wow, the Raptor bump stops are so much shorter than ours. Makes me wonder why they put such long ones on the truck in the first place.

The only things that I can think of are prevent tire rubbing, or if there's not enough room on the spline yoke for the back half of the drive shaft to slide forward as the rear suspension is compressed.

Everyone has all kinds of theories and how I'm going to break my leaf springs but it sure feels nice not to hit the stops every single dip with nothing but the camper shell out back.

 

[Porpoise Hork]

It'd take one hell of a lot to break a leaf spring that's for sure.

Not according to some of the experts on the fb group.
