    2014 Roush Raptor startup 'tapping' sound?

    I'm confident it'll fix it right up. Isn't the cam phaser thing a gen 2 (V6) thing?

    Long tube headers

    Any time I've had a leak there was a lot of tick associated with it, especially when I drove next to concrete borders in the road. Exhaust note is probably just the exhaust, but post a video with sound if you like.

    2014 Roush Raptor startup 'tapping' sound?

    Those flanges in your pic are my current problem children. I have to tighten them every month or two when I start to hear the leak. I hope you have better luck.

    2014 Roush Raptor startup 'tapping' sound?

    I do have the full Kooks dual with green cats setup. I wouldn't buy it again. It immediately started rusting - and I'm in Denver, not the rust belt. I put it on a couple years ago and it looks like garbage now - not that I care about the looks too much, but the mega rusted ass bolts are super...

    2014 Roush Raptor startup 'tapping' sound?

    That sir, is an exhaust leak. Probably a cracked passenger side manifold. I went through two stock exhaust manifolds on mine after I put my Roush on, and that's exactly what it sounded like - or as best as I can judge by video. I now have a full Kooks system.

    Long tube headers

    Well, there's a question of relativity. Do mean versus stock? Here was my progression. I went from stock to an AFE cold air intake. That actually made it sound a bit throatier (stock exhaust at the time). Then I went to a supercharger and a Magnaflow cat back. That made a drastic...

    2011 sync 3.2.2.2 no sound BUT speaker walk test works! Need help

    I apologize for the tangent, but I'm in a similar no sound scenario. I have BCM issues, so I think that's it, but how do you do this speaker test? First I have heard of it.

    Front Camera Stopped Working

    Nope. I plan to try swapping front cameras with a buddy when it's convenient to see if it's the camera. Just haven't gotten to it yet.

    GEN 1 Rear Door Lock Issue

    It's your door actuator. I've had to replace two, and it looks like one more is occasionally doing it now. It's not a tough job to pull off in your driveway, but it's definitely the door actuator. My only door that hasn't done this is my driver door.

    Long tube headers

    I forget exactly - I wound up having my cousin do it. However I did get a couple quotes first and they were in that range. It's a lot of work to put a full system on one of these.

    GEN 1 Fox Shocks Rebuild

    Having a spare set has been a life saver for me. Solves all of your worries.

    Reverse Lines Disappeared?

    Holy crap you got robbed! I had to replace mine, paid something like $300ish online for the camera and had it done in 10 minutes in my driveway. $240 in labor?!?! I can't even see close to that. True about the name plate, unless it's a '13 or '14 if I recall. I used the later model plate to...

    Lead frame/Trans shift recalls on whipple charged setups question:Gen1

    Yeah, they screwed me on that one. I wound up having to pay for it. Even spoke to and wrote Ford directly about it. They never replied.

    Lead frame/Trans shift recalls on whipple charged setups question:Gen1

    Wait. The recall is a software only thing, not a leadframe replacement. How'd you get them to do this? Regarding tuning, my JDM tune already took care of this, so I am not taking mine in for the recall. However, I DID experience the sudden drop to first while flat towing on the freeway long...

    GEN 1 Front Axle Shaft Replacement?

    Are you saying you are struggling to get the axle shaft pushed in all the way? They can be a real pain, you really gotta hit it with your purse, but it'll go in. They can be a pain to pull out too.

    Gen 1 running board covering unpeeling?

    Mine are finally peeling a bit on the bottom. At some point I'll probably clean them up and Raptor line them. I think that should hold up for a long time.

    stupid shock question

    Why are you filling them? I have a full nitrogen setup for my rock crawler shocks. I had schrader valves installed on my shocks so I CAN fill them, but in 10 years (Gen 1) I have never needed to. I get the shocks rebuilt every couple years, so they do get refilled then, and only then. The...

    GEN 1 Hi there, anybody try blac bear pass in Colorado? Any videos? I would like to try it but I would like some help. Thanks

    MOST DANGEROUS?!?!!? IN COLORADO!? Are you friggen KIDDING ME?! Maybe most dangerous for just shy of stock overlander rigs like that. That's comical. I don't see what's scary about it. Don't drive off the edge. You'll be fine.

    GEN 1 Hi there, anybody try blac bear pass in Colorado? Any videos? I would like to try it but I would like some help. Thanks

    I've never heard of it being open anywhere even remotely close to May. More like August, July if you are lucky. Yes, snowfall is low so far... but not THAT low. I'm taking my Jeep on it this year, but the Raptor will hang back. COULD you do it? Yeah, but I don't want to.

    GEN 1 Hi there, anybody try blac bear pass in Colorado? Any videos? I would like to try it but I would like some help. Thanks

    Newbies are constantly doing stupid stuff on Black Bear. A Bronco rolled down it last summer. Countless Jeeps have rolled down it. Be aware, it is typically one of the last trails in CO to open due to snow. With the lack of snowfall so far this year, who knows when it'll open.

    Anyone Replaced Horn?

    Yeah, I already had a big enough Summit order for free shipping there, so a hair cheaper. Horns work great. Wife said "I thought this didn't have an air horn anymore?" (Jeep used to, but I had to pull it off for a bit due to space for another project). Horn was loud enough she thought it was...

    Anyone Replaced Horn?

    As mentioned above, I put these on my Jeep since the stock horn was crapping out: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/pia-85115 They're pretty loud. I have a train horn on the Raptor, but I'll probably replace the stock horns soon with these as well. I have my train horn selectable for when I...

    How strong is the rear hitch receiver?

    That's a very small winch for a Raptor. You want about double that. General rule is a winch that is around double the weight of your vehicle. That's even small for a Jeep. I run a 12K on my truck (8K on my Jeep TJ). However, to answer your question, your receiver hitch will have no...

    Roush Raptor

    I've had no problems with mine - and it doubles as a tow pig in the Rocky mountains at near max towing capacity. I've upgraded a number of things to deal with heat on hard uphill pulls, but it's been solid. As stated above, carry a spare belt. Also carry a spare Roush pulley - it's not a...
