Everyone also remember to let your trucks warm up a bit before putting them into gear. My engineer husband can explain the why, but it has to do with the vacumn. If you don't give it enough time you could wear and break your system without ever even using the 4WD.

Replaced them at 15*** it now has 19109. my dealer takes good care of me it's the inconvenience and not having it when you realy need it.

I'm glad to see that you have a great dealership, Wilson! If you ever need to get your regional customer service manager involved, let me know and I'll be happy to help.

...Crystal and the regional manager were very helpful and quick to make sure things were taken care of.

Great group we have here. I appreciate all the help and feedback.

Fantastic news, REKIII; this is what I like to hear. :)

Ok bud. Spamming the forum isn't going to resolve your issue.
Why did you wait 4 months before asking the best raptor forum for help? You asked a layer first....

We can try to help but need some more details.

What mods do you have done to you truck?

What driving conditions was the truck under when the noise started?

What components have been replaced thus far?

Have you contacted Crystal @FordService?

I agree with rookie that it's probably an IWE issue, but if it's been at the dealer that long they most likely have replaced those.
