    squeaking from back of truck

    ^^^ My tailgate has done this since my truck was about a year old. It can get LOUD. I hear this on a lot of trucks. Lube up the latches inside the gate while pulling the handle to move it around and get the swiveling joints at the bottom of the gate. Real grease is best but I use WD40 White...

    Windshield Chips

    There's no spidering but I'll have my insurance send someone out to check it out soon. Thanks! Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

    Windshield Chips

    AAA will take care of it...mostly just wondering if chips that size are worth fixing, especially if they have to be bored out.:) Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

    Windshield Chips

    Got my first chips in the windshield the other day. They're very small - like slightly larger than a pin head small - and there are two right next to each other. Is it worth getting fixed or are chips of that size less likely to be a problem? I ask because I had a chip in my last vehicle...

    The One and Only 2013 Order status thread

    Almost ready! Looks like they're getting ready to ship from the Allen Park, MI facility. The parking lot is full of them...or at least that's what they put out toward the street. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

    Pinging/Rattling Noise

    You know I wouldn't be surprised around here...but they probably lack the creativity to pull it off Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

    Pinging/Rattling Noise

    Doubt it helps, but I ended up taking mine into the dealer. The heat shield needed repositioning :confused: but it hasn't made the noise since. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

    Grand Traverse Area - First Offroading Experience

    Heading up north soon and I'll be in the Traverse City area looking to take my raptor off road for the first time! Does anyone have any suggestions of where to go? I don't want to do anything too crazy (like Silver Lake sand dunes). Mostly just some trails that I could make it through without...

    4 SALE : Bi-Xenon Projector Retrofit Headlights

    I had some aftermarket headlights on a truck a few years back and I remember aiming/balancing them was a PITA. How is it with these trucks/projectors?

    Paint Sealant

    I second the Wolfgang Deep Gloss...I've used it for a couple years now and it easily lasts through a Michigan winter when applied properly. I've also heard really great things about Collinite 845: Collinite Liquid Insulator Wax #845, liquid wax, heat-resistant wax, car wax It's not a...

    Pinging/Rattling Noise

    Yeah, still making the noise...although it seems to do it a bit less, maybe due to the warmer weather? Any way this could be the trans? I thought I had it pinned down to the exhaust, but it seems to be solid everywhere. The o2 sensors sound very likely after googling and seeing others...

    Pinging/Rattling Noise

    While I loved the sound of the Borla ATAK on my mustang, I'm thinking I might not like the deafening sound of an aftermarket exhaust on this truck...if there is a milder alternative to the Corsa, Borla, SSW, and Flowmasters I've seen in the videos I just might consider this route! As for the...

    Pinging/Rattling Noise

    Hi All, New raptor, less than 2 weeks old, and I'm getting an occasional metallic pinging/rattling noise from underneath. It almost always happens during the first few minutes of driving the truck from a cold start, and sometimes after I've been idling for a little while. I'm 99% sure it's...

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

    1 week old 2012 screw with ~500 miles on it and I'm wondering if this is similar to what I'm experiencing...on initial startup/drive off I hear a metallic pinging noise that sounds like it's coming from underneath the truck. This lasts maybe 30 seconds and I only hear it when on the gas. Also...
