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
Just worked on one that wasn't touched outside oil changes for 350k miles last night, first failure is the starter... which is a bitch to get to but easier than lots of stuff. The raptor 6.2 tends to not break valve springs
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)
My IWE line apparently took a sharp rock while off-roading. Symptom was metal like grind noise, especially near freeway wall. My shop hooked up a smoke machine to the line and low and behold, we see smoke! Cut the bad piece out w/ a pocket knife, hooked it back up and back in the road!
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 👍😁✌️
Great story! It's always cool how we come across these vehicles. Sometimes, it is unexpected! Once these trucks are fixed up, they last forever it seems. Congrats on the purchase!
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 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.
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.
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 .
Thanks for the input on the shocks. I think I will probably do shocks first now that you mention it. Mine does not have a rattle per say, nothing like a lifter tick or anything. It's hard to describe, but occasionally I will get a deep "thoom" noise (best way I could think of describing it lol). My sunroof seems to be fine, but from what I hear, it is something I need to keep an eye on.
I still have my order in. Have not heard a word other than that. I really like the Raptor though; I'm thinking about pushing back my order to 2022. As of right now, in my area, the trucks are going for around $30K to $35K
@@jhmotorclub6916 prices are crazy. I bought a platinum 2014 three years ago with 65k for $29k. Really close color to yours. That truck would still fetch that amount today. Sadly I traded it. Wish I’d kept it
@@aaronhansen8037 They are insane right now. I can sell my car for more than I bought it for, right now, and I drove it for 5 years and almost 25,000 miles. My dad's Platinum is the same. It would be crazy for me not to sell
@@jhmotorclub6916 yes, if one is remotely thinking of selling, now is the time. Around here (Idaho) even the junk is selling for high dollars. Crazy!! I bought the KLX 300 in April. I didn’t really fall in love with it. I ended up wanting something a bit more off road oriented. Sold it the first day for sale, for full asking price, from a guy who drive from Utah to get it. I did end up getting the 300R. But in the flip, I had to pay full bore to get it. Our power sport dealers are empty
Whipple or Roush are both solid choices. The Whipple has more potential for power out of the box. However, even with the Corvette, people have always complained about Whipple's ability in cooling. On the Raptor, I think that is less of a worry. 700HP seems to be where the Raptor sits happy
@@jhmotorclub6916 Or maybe it's a 160k mile truck that you're beating up like a 10k mile truck? You shouldn't be surprised by the powersteering pump, that things been steering 35" tires for 160k and if I recall it's the same pump my base 2011 has.

That's what I've heard. I'll have to give it a shot and see if it improves
@@jhmotorclub6916 I hope it improves, best of luck!
i got that going on as well. Now I know what it is...thank you for the info.
@@thorstenfelies4816 Some say it’s a temporary fix for them, for some it has gone away. Hopefully it goes away for you.
The 6.2 is a 250k+ mile engine. Take care of the truck and it will run for many years

@@jhmotorclub6916 could be the wheel hub also

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

That's crazyyyy 😂 it's almost as if that's what the truck was made for
I have a 2011 with 236k miles and running strong, recent compression test still within factory specs 😊
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.
Good stuff! That was it, sure enough
Power steering pump damage is a known issue for doing doughnuts at full lock out
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:
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.
I thought it would be something like that. I'll have to take a closer look
aslo dust shield sound could be a wheel hub, specially on turns

Great information! Thanks for the write up on it
How is it running now? I’m thinking about buy a 2014 as well
I just got me the same 2014 raptor ruby red and it is amazing!!
Still running great! Just crossed over the 10K mile mark in my ownership!
I have a 2014 and it’s been a really good truck, no problems. Very off road capable. It is very comfortable to drive. I love it
I have a 2013 with 105k miles how much money do you think I can get I want to sell it
With that mileage, I've seen people wanting mid to high 30's in my area. I'm in the PNW though

Just wait until it has a proper exhaust!
Nice truck but whatever happened with the Ford bronco.
What is the average cost for a high mileage raptor?

How are the toyo mt's on the freeway???
Great color! I also have a Ruby Red Gen 1
Very nice! It's such a striking color, but hard to come by
Curious on what super charger your going with. I'm thinking Whipple for mine later on

How much did you pay for it?
About 30k
Nice video man. Any cab corner rust?
Nope! She's pretty clean all around. Thanks for the kind words
Cool truck I love the color 🤙🏻
Thank you! By far, my favorite color on the Raptor
how much was it
Around 30k, just sold the truck
@@jhmotorclub6916 why did you sell it , what other issues did you have, do you recommend a cheap one with higher miles
@@thomko2715 you’ll be fine with whatever mileage you get. Just make sure you check it over or have your local machanic do a pre-buy inspection
Check your iwe system I have a 2011 raptor
Thanks for the idea! From what I have seen about the IWE issue, it seems to screech more than whoosh, right?
I bought new iwe hubs. Pretty cheap fix. Mine is a 2011
If you had a sunroof - not sure if you do - add that to the list. :) What a piece of crap that is.
That I do! I've heard the grievances, but don't want to put them to the test lol!
awesome truck. 160k and you want to supercharge it??? ha! good luck! post a video of it.
If I keep it for awhile, that would be the plan lol! We'll see in the next couple months here
How bout bo issues. Someone before u never maintained it.
My raptor 2014 has had many problems also. Fords quality is very poor.
My raptor is also a lemon.
It ain't a Ford if it doesn't have problems
