The squeak sound or "clunk" is the driveshaft yoke needs to be greased up, it could be dry. My 2010 raptor went through the same. Love your truck, especially the special edition. Hope it runs forever

The 6.2 is a 250k+ mile engine. Take care of the truck and it will run for many years

also the "dragging brakes" could be a faulty IWE or IWE Vacuum line. i also had to replace these parts. if you drive it on the street often DO NOT do IWE deletes(this is just my opinion)

I bought a 2010 Black Raptor last week, seats are rough and 4 wheel drive doesn't work, all the other things work and heater core leaks. I got it from a friend who bought this one from a dealer with a 5.4, he ordered another one in red with a 6.2, all options he's owned both all the time he's good with maintenance and I bought mine for 8, 0000. I love it, even with what's wrong with it. I'll restore this truck as I am the 2 ND owner. Thought you might like the story 👍😁✌️

Power steering pump damage is a known issue for doing doughnuts at full lock out

[aljohntabion]

Now adays engines can go the distance.. 160 isn’t so much high mileage anymore. My friend who is all ford say that engine can 250 + with ease. And at 160 the only issue was the steering pump? My bimmer had tranny, 3 water pumps, radiator, sunroof, and electrical replaced. I’ll take steering any day

When I saw this dude get in his truck with his viper sunglasses I was already looking forward to the damage he did to it. It’s inevitable as a young dude who lives somewhere that has access to go play in the woods/desert (especially with vehicles like this) they will beat the hell out of them. I don’t buy trucks from young guys…testosterone mixed with your buddies is for sure going to case damage to their vehicles. I was like this a bit when I was younger, but found out quickly it’s not worth being crazy and breaking a nice truck.

I have a 2011 with 236k miles and running strong, recent compression test still within factory specs 😊

It can only take so much beating and then broke down. Take good care of it and it will last a bit longer.

I had the exact same double squeak on take off. Ended up being the leaf spring rub pads. Little bit of spray lube stopped it.

Upgrade your IWE lines. Get bulk silicon line (and a T-junction so you can go to both tires) and run a new line somewhere OVERTOP of the engine where it is easily accessible, and tie rap it in to look good. Tear that old garbage IWE line out. Basically look at what Forged Offroad has for their silicon line option (cost a fortune) and just mimic it (but again, route it OVER the engine near the firewall so you can access it and install it in like 5 minutes). Absolutely do not buy their overpriced lines unless you want to spend like 400 dollars.

The engine whine is coming from your Air Con unit, ive had it on my Raptor from 20k km. Try turning off the AC and rev the truck, sound will be gone.

I have a 2011 Platinum with the same DriveTrain (6.2L). Has 185K. Solid as hell. But the abuse a Raptor takes is another story :lol:

[danielblack]

I had the "whoosh" or "brake dragging" sound on my right front. Turned out to be the dust shield rubbing on the back of the rotor. I just bent it back out of the way.

[josecobian]

How is it running now? I’m thinking about buy a 2014 as well

[xanaxpig]

Does yours have a random engine rattle when you start it up ???and id put the shocks first. I bought my 2013 raptor it had 46xxxmiles on it and the shocks where crap. So i bought some new ones on rock auto so now i have two sets, im going to send the old ones to get rebuilt so im good. Another thing is the sun roof it broke from the rails so i bought a kit from sunroof doctor (i think) and watched a youtube vid on how to do it. Kinda easy just takes a whole lot of time .

Nice truck but whatever happened with the Ford bronco.
What is the average cost for a high mileage raptor?

[practicalthings]

How are the toyo mt's on the freeway???

[manolo]

I have a 2013 with 105k miles how much money do you think I can get I want to sell it

[ShiftedPerspective]
