    Gen 1 Raptor vs. SD Engine Swap

    I will keep that in mind. Didn't know about them. But if I can I wanna keep it numbers matching. It's a while down the road for me. If it ain't broke then don't fix it

    Gen 1 Raptor vs. SD Engine Swap

    Some day when I do a rebuild it's the route I'm going to take. Price QUOTE I got doing a full rebuild on mine was 20k. And I was told that if nothing is wrong with it don't need to do it.

    Gen 1 as the daily?

    Do you mean they make a dry type of conical filter for it or you just never oiled it

    Gen 1 as the daily?

    Nope. I actually like the reusable kind. They last forever. Just clean em and service them properly. After ya spray on the oil, dampen off the excess and let it sit for a day and again dampen off any excess and reinstall

    Gen 1 as the daily?

    Gen 1 is a Great solid truck. I have 190,000 miles on it all it needs is routine maintenance stuff. Mine is a 2011, only parts I have replaced on it were the shocks and Molded lead frame just recently crapped out on it but no biggie in getting it replaced and only 1 coil pack went out on it...

    BACKUP CAMERA

    Long story short. I need a new Backup camera for my 2011 Gen1. OEM is 554 dollars. Does anyone have a good recommendation for OEM quality aftermarket one? I saw one for 159 dollars on Master Tailgaters, has anyone used theirs? And Ford has discontinued the emblem so wandering if I can replace it...

    Gen 1 coils

    I have 190,000 miles on mine. If it ain't broke don't fix it. I had 1 go out on me at 90,000 mile mark, the rest are still going strong. There is no guarantee that replacing them will do anything. I know some people fail at 30,000 miles and some like me that just keep going

    Alternator

    I went to a local Alternator repair shop. They actually make the entire thing look Brand New. It was about 100 dollars less than buying brand new. I obviously did my own removal and installation. Highly recommend doing that unless you are really good at sodering and etc. Plus I thought all the...

    I'll send you $100 via Venmo for a solution!

    Would You Buy a 2024 Raptor Without Sunroof?

    Absolutely. Sun Roofs are nothing but a problem later on. I had to replace mine and plenty of threads on here about them

    Raptor exhaust is noisy

    That to me sounds like it could be the valves in the exhaust are not moving for the more quite options. Be worth to have some trouble shooting done

    Raptor exhaust is noisy

    From what I know about the Gen3 is that there are a few different exhaust modes. Maybe he has it Baja mode and doesn't know that there quieter settings

    What's next for Ford Raptor now that Ram came out with the RHO?

    If it has Direct Injection....Stay Far Away. They nothing but problems after 40 to 50k miles. If ya lucky you could make it to 80k before all the coking happens

    That straight 6 that Dodge is using is also Direct Injection. Now they'll have all that coking on the Valves like the VWs have and the newer GM trucks will have
