    Maybe exhaust leak?

    I have a 2013 Raptor. Recently a ticking has started on the right side of the engine. Starts out loud when the motor is cold but then goes away as the engine heats up. Even when warm I can hear the ticking under acceleration coming from the right side. Almost positive it is an exhaust leak...

    Bedside Racks Installed!

    Was pretty easy to install aside from trimming the bedliner from the existing bolts. Fitment is good and works with my Alpha 1 Rack and tonneau cover. I can also use my bed extenders if I remove the items from the racks. Still have a few things to install on the racks; hi-lift, extinguisher...

    37s installed!

    Got my BFG 37's installed today. I have the RPG Stage IV suspension. I confirmed with them that it will bolt right up no problem except you have to cut/bend the pinch weld in the front (will do that this weekend or next week). Still pretty tight in places when you turn the wheel but on the...

    Truck sounds like a jet fighter now...

    I currently have the stock muffler with just dual turn-downs (stock exhaust pipe was ripped off offroading). Since I installed the Whipple the sound and heavy throttle whooshes like crazy like a jet fighter... Kind of annoying. Any suggestions to fix? I would like to keep the downturn...

    SVC Traction Bars installed!

    Finished installing my traction bars today. I had a shop (Offroad Warehouse) weld on the shackles and I did the rest. My u-bolts were trashed so I had to pick up new ones. Fortunately local shop makes them to order. Only took 15 minutes and cost $60. The installation is otherwise very easy...

    Does Dorman make an IWE delete part now???

    Am I reading this correct? It appears this removes the IWE function similar to what the RCV kit does at less cost (It's $90 on RockAuto)? Maybe I am late to the game on this... HAHA https://www.dormanproducts.com/p-101732-600-405.aspx?origin=keyword

    Yet another Supercharger thread...

    Ok so I am ready to order a supercharger for my Raptor. I have read (and reread) all the threads on superchargers and tried to digest as much as possible and the basic conclusion I get is: 1. The Whipple (can) make more power. 2. The Roush is quieter. 3. Other than that there really is no...

    Light bar question...

    Hi everyone. I have a new (to me) 2013 Raptor. I am debating between two paths on adding some lighting... 1. Option #1 - Buy a high quality 20" lightbar setup (ie Baja Designs) for the hole in the stock bumper. 2. Option #2 - Buy an aftermarket bumper and add a Auxbeam (or similar) 40"...
