    GEN 2 Need Transmission rebuild/replace. Recommendations on best route?

    They do good work. I got a stage IV for my supercharged 2005 C6. My rear differential and trans grenaded all at once.

    5.4 vs 6.2 Section

    Sure it is, once you have clicked on and entered the section. Would it be more logical to state the engine in the section title or within the section once entered?

    5.4 vs 6.2 Section

    Will someone take a moment and label the 5.4 performance section and 6.2 performance section by engine in the title? This is mind numbing and shouldn’t it come as no surprise that there are several redirects that continue to occur as a result. It’s not like we’re telepathic to whomever created...

    Valve and Timing Covers

    Timing cover is an expensive job with the labor cost involved. If it’s a seal issue with the timing cover and the oil leak is small (are you losing measurable oil when checking oil level?), you may want to just ride it out if it’s a nuisance issue versus something that potentially would cause...

    Snow chains 35x12.50x20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers

    I can tell you from experience the RG’s are very poor in snow, slush and ice. They are also poor in general in temps below 35 degrees with dry roads. I had 37x12.50’s and the rear tires would break loose noticeably sooner than at moderate to high temps. When I swapped back to a KO2 it was...

    5.0 swap vs building the 6.2

    Issue wasn’t transmission longevity, it was causing drivetrain shock issues which resulted in a ratcheting effect on the tensioner and an amplified wave destroying the FEAD belt and tensioner arm. I’m well aware “soft” shifts aren’t ideal for the transmission in many cases, this is a different...

    5.0 swap vs building the 6.2

    It was a design flaw from Roush specifically on the 2013. The pulley orientation was changed and a FEAD cover added on the 2014 version. After discussions with JDM and VMP, I removed the ribbed idler pulley and VMP changed the TCM tune to smooth the shifting. The transmission tune from Roush...

    5.0 swap vs building the 6.2

    I’m now in a 2018 Gen II Raptor. I previously had two 2013 Raptors, one was stock, one was a Roush Stage II with a smaller blower pulley. The Gen I Roush was likely making around 625hp (was 590, but I was running a 72mm blower pulley making 9.5-10psi at near sea level). My Gen II 3.5 TT with a...

    random codes and the wrench

    Has the truck been flooded (in particular in salt or brine water)?

    GEN 2 2017 ford raptor has rattle / grinding noise in the freeway over 60mph

    Any update on what was causing this noise? My 2018 is making a rattling / scratching type of noise when accelerating slowly to moderately when at a low RPM (1500-2500) when in 2nd. I haven’t noticed it in 4wd.

    Everyone's manual say this? Oil related

    I’ve thought what you think. I just put Amsoil 5w30 in a couple weeks back.

    Just how much does behind the grill light mount reduce light output?

    Not a Gen 3, but I didn’t have a behind the grill option like I did with my Gen 1 Roush due to some performance upgrades which included a Cobb front (grill, vs bumper) mount intercooler taking up room. The 40” OnX6 arc worked out quite well. I had to fab up some brackets but it wasn’t too bad...

    Gen 2 High Mileage - Transmission

    While the transmissions may be nearly the same, comparing torque and HP capacities between a 3700 car on 27.5” tires with a 5800lb truck on 35 or 37” tires, not exactly the same. The ton plus weight difference plus the additional load from tire size and rotational mass is meaningful. That said...

    Roush Raptor Advice Needed

    Looks pretty good. I’m a fan. Look up some of my previous threads and posts. I had. 2013 Stage II.

    Goosetuned really is the best.

    Agreed on Winfield. Lobs superlatives!

    2018 New motor recommendations

    Sorry to hear that! It seemed like EB’s weren’t very easy to find a year or so ago. Not sure about current state of the market.

    CVF Titan v2 Max Package!

    I can’t speak to that kit but I have a Goosetuned Stage II. I can tell you there is a noticeable difference between the 91 octane tune and E85 tune.

    How are you liking it? Have any picture of it during daylight?
