They are more reliable. SVC Midtravel is as far as I’d go. After that, the reliability takes to much of a hit.

🤙🤙

Looking forward to it!

Yep, that’s him!

Thank you for the feedback! I was kind of hesitant to show the carnage because I don’t want to scare people away. We usually don’t see this much. I ultimately decided it was best to show what is pretty much the worst we’ve experienced and how we handle it. It must be karma - the video we planned to show the behind the scenes turns into the biggest shit show lol.

@@Expeditionxoffroadcarnage is better! 😂😂😂

Honestly pretty much all the issues were due either poor prep/maintenance or aftermarket parts like the progressive coils on stock shocks. We have now seen over 13 trucks have their shocks separate from the shock hats on our runs. All have been running an aftermarket coil spring. So If someone is going to level their Raptor with stock shocks, due it with the lifts that replaced shock hat. SDI makes some. The drive shaft fell out due to the leaf bolts being loose. So doing a nut and bolt check before a run is important. My starter failed due to the silt and that can happen to anyone. I’ve done those silt beds several times of the years and first time that happened to me. In short - stock or stock with bolt on shocks and bump kit are the most reliable. SVC Midtravel is as far as I’d go performance wise while maintaining good reliability. I can also say we have never had a run with this many issues. We have each of these issues happen but they are usually spread across several runs. So had some pretty bad luck. This run definitely put us to the test lol. Each generation is about equal when it comes to reliability. The new 23 chase truck is amazing! The power combined with the 10 speed pulls effortlessly. I just finished dialing in the suspension and bag setup. Rides like a big couch on a cloud while towing now. Icon stage 4 2.5” lift. So 2.5” shocks, front coils, adjustable trac bar. Also added their progressive rear leafs along with some airlift air bags that I customized to worth with the lift.

Starlink panels.

We have starlink satellite internet on all of our support trucks. Allows for seamless communication and tracking between our crew.

No…but there’s probably a style that you can find that would work. Check out his website

Absolutely! We had several on this run. There are a few basic requirements for radio, navigation, and offroad jack.

​@@Expeditionxoffroad How about a gen 1 pavement princess on stock 35" tires and national rear leaf springs with a whimpering 5.4 ?

Yeah I will skip them next time. Killed my starter lol

And my motor.. eventually.. just took 4 more days to fully kill it!

They usually go on the Bronco runs. They can hang on the Raptor runs but we haven’t had one sign up yet.

Sure did on this one. It’s not normally like this. By far set a record for any run we’ve done. Most of the issues were due to poor prep/maintenance or poorly designed aftermarket parts.

They'd have to actually go down there before trolling lol. Actually, the ones who troll self identify as not having any real experience because if they did, they'd know this comes with the territory. We've had a couple toyotas on the runs over the years, several have mechanical issues as well.
