What did you do to your Ranger today?

[RangerRay]

Installed a new tail light after a tree jump behind my truck on a trail.

Added some silicone caulk to the top edges of the bushwacker trail armor rocker panel covers.

Ugh, I ordered one and still waiting. I didn't realize it had that. Don't like. Might have to cut off and see if my wife can sew a edge.

It would look better without the flap.

It's thankfully not a problem (but I would try to avoid it in the future anyway) because if you look under the hood, the air intake hose is actually way up at the top near the hood so if you keep it below that point and enter the water slowly so the water doesn't create a bow wave and come over the hood, you're all good.

Yea, Ford did a good job keeping the air intake high up.

Sprayed my bed liner with UPOL Raptor Liner. Was originally planning on going with Line-X, but had some time and decided to undertake this project myself instead. Really happy with the result. As always, prep is key and the most time consuming.

Also installed the DeeZee Tailgate Damper. Painted the hardware gloss black and sanded off the branding for a more OEM look.

Does anyone know what the side bed plugs are called/part number? I seem to have misplaced one somehow

Hate it when those trees move like that.

Installed Extand Xceed hard folding tonneau cover. Install wasn't too bad and I think it looks great on the truck. There were a lot of metal chips all over the cover. Tried to blow them off with compressed air, but that only got about 1/2 of them. Went through a touchless car wash which cleared the chips off, but showed several leaks. Water was very high pressure, will see what happens with normal rain.

Yeah, I hate pine trees. I had one to run out in front of me a few years ago!

Installed Ford bed mat and swing out tool box that I got with reward points.

Factory spray in bed liner makes everything to do with fasteners in the bed a PITA. Have to clear it out of threads for bracket attachment. Had to remove 2 tie downs, which of course were sprayed over. Spent more time picking at bed liner than anything else!

How many points did the swing out box take?

I finished up my Eibach install, bolted on my Fuel Shoks/Grabbers and took it for a drive. I’m very happy with the new feel of the truck. The stiffer ride makes it handle much better! This is the 2.25” setting using the stock springs. Alignment tomorrow then hopefully a wash this weekend so I can remove the blue from the white letters.

How thick is the bed mat ?

Is the rear edge seal part of the mat ?

The mat is 3/8" thick.

Edge seal was not part of the mat. I had it laying around from a previous tonneau purchase and installed it when I saw how water came in at a car wash.

Pricey. If not for points I would have bought Dee Zee.

How many points did the swing out box take?

I don't have it broken out. I had 84,000 points and used 78,226 for both, including tax.

Put the 275/65r18 Terra Grapplers on. No rubbing at all with a 2.5” level. No modification needed to crash bars.

Washed and gave a coating of Turtle Wax Ice Seal and Shine
