Ah, this is good info - the plethora of Motorcraft 820S & Ford Racing oil filters from the Cobra sitting in boxes in my garage are compatible with the Raptor engine, score!

I believe mine did. It has all the info. Filter replacement, tire rotation, all the good stuff.

Was it a separate book? I don't know where to get this thing if the dealer won't give it to me.

Should just be in your owner's manual. I didn't get a separate booklet

I'm finally getting to that section in the manual. I'm in the middle of moving and starting a new job so free time is pretty limited. I guess I'm just used to something a little more separate and directive. This thing covers each engine and type of f-150.

You're looking for a service manual. I don't know where to get one but maybe eBay has it.

They have one online that's based on driving habits. Should be pretty normal vehicle schedule.

Just a suggestion for DIY ers. Takes the guessing and risk out of the drain plug, cross threading, over tighting, convenience in the field.

How about some anti-gel for the blinker fluid?

I also need to know how to change my muffler bearings...they've got me stumped.

Do you have this on your truck? Worth getting? Concerned about how it sticks out, higher chance of it getting ripped off?

Not on my truck. Had it on a 2000 celica (stock height) and 04 wrx (lowered). Not sure about the angle of the drain for the truck. Been doing dealership maintenance since it was included in the truck so far.

It looks like we're good since the sway bar would be hit first prior to the oil pan.
