    Transfer case / drive line slop

    A little off topic here but I just bought my first Raptor, a '13. Can anybody tell me whether the transfer case is gear or chain driven, and what the low ratio is? Or maybe point me in the direction to somewhere I can find all the truck's specs in one place? Transmission, transfer case, axle...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    I just bought the truck, the dealer put these tires on, so I can't really compare them to any other tire on the truck itself. If I were putting new tires on the truck I probably would have gone with some KOs or KM2s, I've had good luck with those on my daily driven Jeeps. As for the brand, I...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    My phone has a cracked camera lens so not a great photo but they turned out great. The color matches the F150 and Raptor badges almost perfectly by the way, so I sprayed the rear emblem backup cam bezel the same color. Much better.

    Oil Change - now leaking with pics - concern?

    Make sure the filter is hand tight before you drive and check the oil level at your first gas stop. Like Prybar said, sloppy oil change job. Not much to go wrong to only cause a couple drops.

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Painted the trim rings on the wheels. Still need to hit it with clear. Painted the same way I did the bumper on my Jeep and it's help up great for a couple years. We'll see.

    2013 Ford Raptor SCREW purchase

    Damn! Friendly people with helpful insight: I paid $200 to have it transferred. You can ask specific questions before having it transferred, and if it shows up misrepresented you can get your money back. I think the rear end not driving in the same direction as the front is an exception...

    2013 Ford Raptor SCREW purchase

    I just think there are better ways to reply to somebody's questions. Like, "no, because x, but here's a better option" Just a little elaboration is nice so you don't come across as somebody just hawking their wares. You had sent me a link to your truck twice, with no other text or helpful...

    2013 Ford Raptor SCREW purchase

    Lol I don't trust CarMax at all, they're just like every other dealer. I never said I trust CarMax. But this Raptor, in the year and color and options I want, is 20 miles from my house. ABQ is a little further. I've been talking to several mechanics I know personally that say this is not...

    So one guy messages me their truck to buy then comments the same truck, and another guy says pass, buy mine instead. Some community here. Anybody with input NOT selling a truck? Anybody without ulterior motive?

    2013 Ford Raptor SCREW purchase

    Damn I'm not getting much feedback here. Ok, looked at the truck. Combed it over. The left rear leaf is bent, as pictured. It's pulling the left side of the axle forward about an inch and a half, the truck dog tracks bad. Otherwise I can find absolutely no signs of abuse or damage anywhere on...

    2013 Ford Raptor SCREW purchase

    I'm looking at a 2013 Raptor SVT in tuxedo black tomorrow. It's at a CarMax, seems to be priced decently. 41,000 miles. $44,000. Fully loaded except for sunroof and front camera, as far as I can tell. No graphics either, but I consider that a plus. Also has the beadlock capable wheels, which...
