What did you do to your Ranger today?

[Dr. Zaius]

I've been wondering what I can do to fill in the sound system on mine. I replaced the tweeters in the A-pillars to Infinities and that helped to crispen up the highs some, but the rest of the spectrum is pretty dull. Talked with a couple of stereo shops and they said if I replace the door speakers, it will lose even more low end because the factory door speaker have a decent amount of low end. Not a lot of room to add a sub.

Which Infinity tweeters did you use?

That's one area mine could use some help in.

mounted a backup camera in the front so I can see what's on the other side of the hill when off road

Have any more details on your front-mount camera setup?
What camera is it?
Where is the image displayed? Sync screen? Somewhere else?
How hard was it to route wiring?

I'm very interested in doing something similar...

I believe I still have the box at home in the garage. I'll try to take a pic and post it when I get home from the office.

I remember someone in the thread installed a sub somehow. I also remember someone had an issue with our fake engine sounds coming out of the sub....

it wasn't too bad running the wires to power the camera. It has a 4" monitor that can be mounted to the windshield, it is wireless from camera to monitor. The only problem is that because it is designed to be a rear camera the picture that is displayed is backwards. I have an email foo to the company to see if there is a firmware update that will fix this

Anxious to hear your results on the wax. I keep looking at it everytime I'm in walmart. I wanted to try chem guys "ceramic" stuff, but it's a little steep at $40. This might be a good replacement. And sorry to hear about the old ride, that's terrible.

Yeah, it was only like 16 buckskins....

Put on my tailgate assist (earlier this week) and washed and waxed her this morning. Used to hate the thought of the tailgate assist now I love it! So convenient! Happy 4th everybody!

Why did you hate the thought of a tailgate assist? I love mine. Now I can pop it open and let it go and I don't have to hold it as it opens to keep it from slamming down.

If I didn't already have it on my Colorado, I'm not sure I would have gotten one for the Ranger. With me, my wife and two kids it was a no brainer. Both trucks work the same now.

My FPP M-9603-REB arrived in the mail today, install is tomorrow! I installed the Roush CAI about a week ago; really liking it in combination with the Ford Performance (Borla) exhaust I installed a couple weeks prior.
