every raptor ive had (4) has had fox shocks , every raptor ive had does that. Every f150 ive driven (many)didnt have fox shocks , none made the clunk....

Haven't noticed in in 4 years in my '18 or in the '10. I am very sensitive that type of junk. Now, the driver rear shock squeeks like a ****, but not a clunk.

Went to Raptor assault a couple days ago. Perfect weather. But anyway Kyle said that Fox came recently and there is supposed to be a bulletin coming out. He said one of the plates in the front shock was machined too smooth? And that it was allowing I believe the spring to move a little bit causing the noise. Said they are making new pieces.

I don’t have any clunking, but I do have 2 leaking rear shocks. I’m guessing the valving and seals are bad with our rear shocks.

Ok guys, take it easy on me, I don’t consider myself an expert in Raptors by any means, (it’s my first) and almost everything I know about it is from this forum, thank you all. Today I decided to check out my babies underbelly for loose stuff ( wiring, hanging sound insulation etc ). Everything looked good until I got to the front wheel neighborhood. There is plastic part ( part # ML 34-10C792-AC ) hanging completely loose between the steering rod and front right wheel drive shaft. I hope I can upload the video. Then I checked the left side and found the same condition ( different plastic part # and shape) but almost same sound. So the first one I secured with a plastic zip tie, on the second one I used some hard foam pieces .View attachment 358241116288B6-3B7C-4129-81F6-647E007DD86D.jpegBDA67D0E-9A12-4EAC-A4A6-A8D4F9C85AF3.jpegView attachment 358247View attachment 358248View attachment 358248for some reason I can’t upload the video with the clunking sound, ill try later, sorry
