    HELP - Rear End Clunk/Pop (no not that one)

    So update here: I ended up going the long route to chase this down. I had the traction bars taken off the truck and drove around for a few weeks and the same clunk/popping noise was there. Had the shop check all grease and torque and everything was as it should have been. So my next step was...

    Daily driver roush raptor anyone???

    Brand new Falken A/T3 Tires are probably aired up a bit too much honestly... I used to run my old BF's (which were waaaay worn out and were rocking a couple bolts that did an admirable job of holding air pressure) around 40psi, but I think the shop aired up the new tires when they went on a few...

    Daily driver roush raptor anyone???

    Deavers +2 at stock height. Also put the SDHQ bump pads on there, but kept the factory bumpers up top. SVC Traction bars are installed on it now as well. I had Texas Shock Works send me rebuilt Front/Rear Shocks and the front is now set at mid perch. SVC Tie Rods are on the front now as...

    HELP - Rear End Clunk/Pop (no not that one)

    Forgive me for asking, but can you explain or point me to where I can educate myself on fixing the axle housing perch? I hear a pop, pop, pop from my rear end now that I've put Deavers and Traction Bars on, and I've tried everything to fix it, including checking torque on all the bolts and...

    Daily driver roush raptor anyone???

    I installed SVC Traction Bar kit a few months back... I've had issues with popping noise since and i'ts driving me nuts. First I discovered the shop didn't put the factory U Bolt Brackets back on because they thought the traction bar brackets were replacements rather than added to the factory...

    Looking to replace my 12 Raptor aged exhaust system , need recommendations

    I just took the Roush Exhaust off my Gen 1 Roush Raptor and replaced with a Corsa Extreme (less drone). I kept the Roush and am going to put it up for sale for cheap. In my opinion, the Roush sounds amazing... very barritone. It barks on cold start and rumbles really sweet. The Corsa was the...

    Memorial Day Sales?

    Does anyone know if JDM Engineering or RPG or OffRoad Alliance run Memorial Day sales? I'm getting ready to make a bunch of suspension upgrades... I've got bundles ready to go from each, but waiting to pull the trigger when/if any of the three have any sales... Vendor FRF members, feel free...

    2014 Roush Raptor startup 'tapping' sound?

    Here's a pic of the Stainless Works setup when I went through the box to check inventory. It's now installed, and as promised, I've taken a video to compare startup sound from the same angles so you can hear the tapping sound resolved. After having it on for two days now, I'll say this...

    2014 Roush Raptor startup 'tapping' sound?

    Picked up my truck up with the new Stainless Works 1 -7/8" Power Headers (Catted) yesterday. That "tick" is gone for sure but..... Things I hadn't considered... there is a new barely audible tick that I hear from the front wheel wells and a new "tinny"/"raspy" sound under throttle inside the...

    2014 Roush Raptor startup 'tapping' sound?

    Just an update here for those who responded earlier... I never could get the Roush Cert. Mechanic to answer/call back and again - I refuse to take it to the local Ford Shop where he works. That said, I took it to another reputable shop that primarily does work on performance MOPAR here in town...

    2014 Roush Raptor startup 'tapping' sound?

    I'm trying to get it in to see the only Roush Certified mechanic within 6 hours of here... I'll update as soon as I know more. Thanks guys. I'm praying it's exhaust manifold... that would be an easier repair....upgrade. :)

    2014 Roush Raptor startup 'tapping' sound?

    Doesn't run rough in my opinion... it's never been the most balanced/smooth motor, but I've not noticed anything driveability or shudder wise since I started hearing this. If it was a valve spring, curious why the noise would get noticeably quieter at idle after it settles down from startup?

    2014 Roush Raptor startup 'tapping' sound?

    All of a sudden (about a month ago), I started noticing a tapping sound when I startup my 2014 Roush Raptor. (144k miles).. from inside it sounded like something was loose in a cupholder or something so I ignored it but after a few trips, I quickly realized it was an engine noise. My problem...

    Daily driver roush raptor anyone???

    What else did you do to the truck or has been done to the truck to support the JDM 700 kit? I've heard everything from new oil pump, heat exchanger to even possibly needing to replace the crank so the extra power doesn't blow everything up? I'd love to get the JDM kit, but can't afford all the...

    Kinda of a Dream come true

    Welcome! I'm in the same boat - always drooled over these trucks and since Father's day this year, now I've gone one. I've done a bunch of small repairs to my high mileage (140k) truck as well... what have you done so far?

    New to me Raptor

    I just purchased a '14 Roush Raptor about a month ago as well. Mine's got the serial #, and oddly Roush Performance didn't have any record of my VIN (even though placards of installation and programming are all over the truck). Roush had me have my local (Roush certified) dealer pull the...
