    Spark Plug Change

    My grandson and I changed spark plugs in my 2013 Roush SC SCREW yesterday. After two trips to the auto parts store, six hours of acting like a contortionist and half a pint of my blood we got it done. Truck has 68,500 miles on it and had NGK plugs in it so I assume one of the previous owners...

    Lead frame question

    I've worked myself into a frenzy worrying about the molded lead frame issue. I have read about the usual cause of the failure and it caused me to wonder if having the trans filter and fluid changed early might lessen the chances of a failure. Any thought anyone?

    Molded lead frame

    Has everyone had their molded lead frame replaced? From what I gather I've time out to have mine replaced. Not sure if I would have qualified anyway since the truck hasn't thrown a code since I've owned it, but I have begun to notice some odd shifting when I jump on it.

    Cup holder inserts

    Just order two cup holder inserts on Amazon. I got totally confused with the flow through vs non-flow through console thing. As explained in several posts I read across the internet it didn't make any sense to me. A flow through to my mind's eye would be where a tiny dog could could run from...

    Hollister Hills Off road Park California

    Has anyone taken their truck on any of the trails at Hollister? If so is the Hudner Pass out and back wide enough to keep from pinstriping?

    Gas question

    My raptor is a 2013 Roush SCREW and I've been advised not to run another below 91 octane and to not use any fuel additives. Last Memorial Day I ran low on gas in the truck and had used up all the twenty five gallons I brought as back up while camping out in the Nevada desert by Middlegate. The...

    Fender/flare parts help needed

    I have a 2013 and while cleaning I discovered the plastic mud shield (or what ever you call it) on the rear passenger side has been torn loose and disfigured. It is pop riveted to the fender flare behind the rear wheel. I can't find a picture of it in any exploded diagram that I have been able...

    JDM Tune for 2013 Roush SCREW

    I haven't read hundreds of posts on the subject but the ones I have seem to point to JDM as being the tuner of choice. I don't know that I need the tune but several people have suggested it as a must have for longevity. I ran into two different areas that gave me pause as I researched it. One...

    2014 Race Red Raptor for sale

    Saw this sitting on a lot in Roseville Ca. It is a 2014 with 87,650 miles on it. They are asking $50k for it. That's 21,000 miles and $5k more than my 2014 Roush five months ago. Feeling better about my beast all the time.

    Overheated the Raptor

    Left just before noon to head to Nevada desert around Fallon pulling my fully loaded 26 ft. travel trailer and max cargo in the truck. Got almost up first big grade in sierras doing 654mph and truck quit running right and went into what I presume was limp mode. The coolant reservoir was...

    Dealing with dust advice

    Planning my first off road experience in my new (to me) Raptor and I was wondering, how often should I stop to dust off the truck. I have a main California Duster and a back up in case the first breaks or someone volunteers to help.

    Like my truck

    Been a couple of months now since I got my Gen 1 and I’m still getting the giggles when I see it sitting in the driveway. I’ve seen multiple pics of the Gen 3 posted and while they look nice they don’t have the presence my truck has.

    Serpentine belt

    Does anyone know where I can get a serpentine belt for my 2013 Roush SC 6.2? My online searches have come up with only a few options and they all list it as unavailable.

    Dancing rear end

    Today I did a rolling start straight line full acceleration for the first time in my newly acquired 2013 Roush. About 65 mph the rear end started acting weird like it was shifting weight from one side to the other. The truck came with traction bars and an axle exchange driveshaft. Shocks appear...

    Need for suspension mods

    I recently purchased a used 2013 and it is mostly bone stock. A friend stopped by with his Raptor which has what I assume is close to 1,000 lbs of bolt on accessories and gear counting bumpers, jack, sidewall racks, extra spare, tire cages, lights etc. He told me that he changed to Deaver...

    PCM reprograming

    The CARFAX for my recently purchased Roush Raptor mentions the PCM being reprogrammed in the past. Being a complete novice I have no idea if this means the Roush tune has been replaced or if that is even possible. I also have no idea how to verify one way or another. Can anyone help?

    Suggested maintenace for used Raptor

    Recently purchase 2013 Roush with 65k on it. I have no idea what maintenance has been done to it. The oil and tranny fluid both look clean. What maintenance should I preform to be on the safe side?

    Got my Raptor

    Several years ago I got a chance to drive a friends Raptor in the Nevada desert and have been envious ever since. Now I have my own, be it used but it's new to me. 2013 Roush edition with 66,000K. Wanted white but when I saw the Red with the Raptor decals and Roush emblems I was hooked. The only...
