    That's great, I just was not wanting to wait 9 months for a build date. It is possible that the remaining supply of cf and beadlocks are reserved for the early orders that have not been built yet. Hope your truck gets built next week the way you ordered it.

    I wonder if a dealer can get an "Order #" from simply initiating a custom order in whatever software or system they use. Without actually submitting the order to the que.

    This shows an order number/code but notice the bottom says "not been submitted to the order bank".....

    Just checked the locator seeing plenty of trucks with beadlock showing in stock or in transit. Carbon fiber shows 2 in stock, but none currently in plant or transit.

    We can do those builds anytime without submitting. Dealerships were told how many allocations they were getting but we were not told when those orders would actually be picked up. As a dealer it has been a bit confusing on these orders.

    I would say this is a very likely scenario. Seems like the July orders that are optioned with beadlocks are starting to be pulled.

    Dropped the beadlocks, got sticker today, build date 2/20, delivery 3/6. Very good dealer ordered 5 beadlock take offs from someone else's new truck. It will be the way I ordered it.

    Well guys... it has finally arrived this afternoon! Going to pick it up first thing in the morning. Had to drop the beadlocks to get the truck built.... yet my dealer ordered 5 take offs BL. So.... they are changing out wheels this evening. Dealer mentioned the truck was delivered with a steel spare wheel..... is this the case with the base wheels? No matter to me cuz 5 BL going on. Pics to come.

    Can you order the Raptor specific beadlocks separately?

    Anyone know if the window sticker shows the specific truck number out of the total produced this year?

    Don't think you can order from Ford yet, these came from Detroit wheel, they have some take offs.
