To be honest, the Raptor has been my dream truck for years, I could finally bought a 2013 in super nice conditions with 40k miles last October. Since then it has been constant nightmare ! I am so disappointed with that truck, it’s not reliable at all, I had noises everywhere, issues with the trans, the spark plugs, the exhaust and now it’s the fu… front differential, well I suppose it is !? When engaging the 4x4 it makes a clong noise and loud kind of bearing noises, can’t even drive 100ft without being scared to break it all ! So here is my question, is the front diff a common issue ? Why and is usually wrong ? By the way my CV’s are brand new just fitted as well as Eibach coils.
Enough !

Take a look at the IWE valve.
Don't get too down in the dumps on the truck. It is 10 years old, things brake or wear out. Not always related to mileage.

Thanks guys, I don’t loose faith and I am really trying to like this truck but… the previous owner has never been off-road but I suspect he used the 4x4 on the road when raining and probably caused it n issue in the front dif. I had the IWE out 2 days ago and they are fine so I don’t think it’s the problem and anyway the noise is way too loud and deep to be that, like a CV knocking with too much angle plus some other metallic noises.

sorry...10 year old anything is usually a nightmare when you are 2nd or 3rd owner
Je suis surtout en Limousin , lieu idéal pour taper quelques "run" en Raptor dans les nombreuses pistes ouvertes...Oui Julien je suis Français près de Cannes et toi ?
something about making a limosine from a raptor.....
It could be , but not ^^ Limousin is not only a famous car, it's also the name of a french region (in center) where I live , and where it's great to have a Raptor, bcs it's still very wild !!!
I translated it right, don't know what was so hard about that...I put my army scout skills in and then used my head wrestling coach knowledge and came up with the translation
