    GEN 1 Transmission cooler lines

    Did this, was a bit of a PITA without a drain bolt or fill tube. If you plan on keeping the truck, I think there is a trans pan with a drain bolt for the 6r80: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/rnb-265-854/overview/ here it is, not going to break the bank, and personally, combo it up with...

    Suspension squeak

    OOh I don't know. The control arm bushings are solid rubber, unless the control arm bolt is loose to allow the pivot sleeve to creak in the frame, I don't know how it could make that noise. If you get another buddy to rock the truck, you can grab certain points and maybe feel the creak.

    Suspension squeak

    either its spring rub or your lower shock mount spray some lube on either one at a time and do a compression check. I was wondering wether it was even your front, and maybe your leafs.

    New Raptor owner from Toronto,ON, Canada

    Sorry on the late reply. Been an insane September, its off Simcoe and coates rd. Ganaraska I don't know whether you can drive in tbh. There are some wicked trails though out there. wide enough for a raptor to fit too, and a sand pit big enough to open it up!

    2010-2012 vs 2013/4 Gen 1

    depends on wear on the vehicle. The 2010 has the old system, I would avoid if you can. You cant manually shift through all the gears and this had been one of my peeves for my truck since I got it. take the to get an inspection.

    advice on next steps for brand new broken raptor

    Simple fix, you can disengage the vaccum pump so the cv's and diff spin, but still be in 2wd setting. Done it with mine a while back while waiting for a part. the only drawback is a little worse fuel economy...

    New Raptor owner from Toronto,ON, Canada

    alright. im going to get something together, north Oshawa is really one of the best spots to run in proximity to the city. I ll see if I can make a loop out of it from it. Raglans is one heck of a place to rip a raptor, sand, sand, and more sand!

    Strange noise! Need Help

    go to a flat parking lot, put it in neutral, 2wd, crank the wheel to the left so you can see the cv axle, and give the truck a roll from the front left. if the cv is spinning, you have a leak. If not, I say pads.

    mods to `14 screw

    Looks awesome brother! But a small suggestion, Im on my third pair of warrantee rigids because the supplied brackets leave the drain hole on the top. In rain and wet conditions, they fill up, shorting out the light. They have a flip kit which I put on at the beginning of the year to see how...

    Pedal Commander issues

    I have had this happen a few times, I think its a voltage interruption because of the pedal commander being hooked up. I have had mine throw the wrench, and increase the idle and actually pull away on me. I just shut it down, open the door to kill all power, and restart and its worked every...

    2014 Looking to upgrade from stock exhaust. (SUGGESTIONS?)

    I got a Borla ATAK welded in place of my old muffler. Sounds unreal. However, the drone can be pretty bad from 60 to 75 mph. Above that, its significantly quieter. I also opted that route since offroading kills the tail pipes and the stocks, well, they can get trashed.

    I want to love my new truck, but still havent "connected" with it.

    I don't know how, but as soon as I finished reading the post header, I immediately went into "this dude is suffering from 2 less cylinderisis." There is really something that the Gen 1 has that the Gen 2 doesn't. Wether its heckling mouth breathers on this page, (not forum) the fact you have...

    GEN 1 Simple Bed stiffener

    "Made the truck feel completely different." How is that taken? Did it handle better, are the bed sides that flexy? Can anyone elaborate on why these are a thing?

    Gen-1 Raptor Questions (advice appreciated!) -new to forum

    That is really pushing it Vic. As a rule, I don't try for anything shorter than 6'8". You can use te antenna as a reference for height clearance which does really well. I am always surprised why people get stubbies for that reason. Just make sure its inspected 100% Those rusty rockers can...

    Intermittant rear camera issue

    Had a blue screen of death after about a month of my reverse camera flashing and being an all around asshole. ended up buying a used cam off ebay, problem solved. check the connector but I am highly suspect that its your cam going. Unfortunately, you also have to replace your ford emblem in...

    6.2 intermittent valve train ticking noise at start up ??????????????

    Man, sounds 100%% like my truck when I gave her a little too much one day the oil wasn't completely warmed up yet. Took it in, turned out to be a collapsed hydraulic rocker for an exhaust valve. Replaced and on my way! I hope its a fuel related issue man, it wasn't cheap!

    I wonder if someone can comment on this. Maybe it was an 802 upgrade? I thought they would have come stock?

    Gen-1 Raptor Questions (advice appreciated!) -new to forum

    To be completely honest, there isn't much on the truck that goes wrong wth it. As for upgrades, Im sure there are offroad companies that can help out, maybe Just Jeeps. I just don't trust mechs because I have seen what kind of garbage they think is "fixed." Upgrades are fairly easy, even for...
