What did you do to your Ranger today?

Hi Shea,

Do you do house calls? Green Valley AZ.... About 8 hours away?

Looks fantastic!

Best,

Haha... I would not want to do this for a living. Thanks for the kudos though!

Created an account for my truck! Also put an awning on the truck!

Feel free to follow me on Instagram to see where the truck takes us!

Installed the underseat lockable covers from Front Runner.

Instructions said 45 mins for installation but spent a good part of Saturday swearing over it as I think it was designed off the 2019 ranger and didn’t fit flat on my 2020 due to the tyre retrieval tool being in the way. So just a heads up to anyone who is wanting to get this - if you’ve got the 2020 ranger, you’ll have to do some trimming of the plastic! Need a longer screw for the one that is missing but that will be easy to do soon.

Before anyone asks, is this completely theft proof? No because of the Allen key screws are exposed but hopefully a good deterrent for the “gone in 60 seconds” type of opportunists. I love the look and quality of the steel too!

Those look really good, nice addition.

Thanks mate! The quality of front runner products is awesome. Highly recommend their gear.

Well it was yesterday but I think it still counts. Got my Livernois tune installed and all I can say if anyone is considering one it's well worth it! I've been contemplating getting a tune for about a year and wish I'd done it sooner. This really wakes this truck up and pulls nice and hard.

Customer service is A+++ as Anthony went out of his way to answer all my dumb questions and even installed my tunes when we were on the phone so I didn't have to wait 2-3 days for them.

Man this looks good do you know if this would fit the STX 4x4 model

I can't see a reason why it wouldn't

Had the dealer (Grappone Ford, in Concord, NH) install the Ford trailer brake controller. Three hours on a 1.5 hour job. They said it‘s the first one they’ve installed on a Ranger. Used all 42,000 of my points as partial payment. I don’t yet own a trailer with brakes, so I won’t be testing it any time soon.

Good old Grappone Ford. I worked there at the age of 16 doing most every odd job other that mechanic work and sales. Deliver cars, repossess cars, park cars, change oil, sweep floors. That was just a few years ago. I'm 64.

Installed the pivot tool box Couple of minutes is all it takes once the holes are cleared of the spray in liner.

My FORScan thingy arrived today. Didn't take long to dive in. Bambi mode, Raptor splash screen, parking light DRL's, start/stop disabled (instead of unplugging that connector by the battery), double press to activate the panic alarm and most importantly, restored my climate controls after the SYNC 3.4 update.

@FULLSCALE , the adapter worked just fine!

I didn't do the double press to activate panic alarm and need to!

I got my vinyl letters for the grill, glovebox, flag and 5G.com. The TVD site has a color chart that said the best color match for HPR was Dark Red Metallic. I was a little leery but got that color anyway for the glovebox and the 5G.com window sticker. The grill, I wanted matte black to match my customized Ford grill emblem.
First off they sent me Dark Red Metallic for the grill, when I ordered matte black. Contacted them and they replaced, I put them on and they look fine. Then I put the 5G.com on the back window. The Dark Red Metallic looks really crappy. It doesn't blend with the HPR at all. Just plain Red would have been better, or even Red Orange. I did use the glove box letters, they don't fit perfect or look great, but there is no HPR nearby to compare so it's not as bad as it could be. Not too happy with TVD, should have gone with my gut on the plain red.

Where did you order them from?

I ordered them from Stage 3

Rundown since purchase
7/9 purchased used 26k miles, also came pre-scatched so I don't have to OCD about a new vehicle, it's kind of freeing
7/16 Spray in bedliner by Bedliner Veterans, Gilbert, AZ

Just not doing much, those of you who live in AZ know the Blast Furnace has been on HIGH for about 5 weeks now. 90 degrees at 5am, 115 in the pm. Even doing little things in the garage with the fan on it's a sweat fest.
