What did you do to your Ranger today?

Pollen seems earlier and worse this year than I can remember. That color looks great with the black package.

Nah....looks bout normal around here..

If there were a Police Interceptor Ranger that would be it. Looks great!!!

Thanks! I was torn on the steelies at first but after I got the center caps I liked the look much better.

My truck was 2 years old last week. How time flys. Ordered it in oct of 2018 delivered March 2019. What a wait it was.

I put my bug guard and tow hook on (2wd). I only did one because the ford performance ones do not come with bolts. I managed to find two in my garage. I have to go to Lowes tomorrow to get two more.

I don't know for sure, but you might want to check on what grade bolts you need. If you plan on using those, you wouldn't want a bolt to snap when it matters.

I had grade 8 bolts. I will buy two more tomorrow.

From what little I know grade 8 seems to be the right ones. I only replied in case someone reads this someday and wonders if those were correct or not.

This is perfect, too many people think 8.8 is better than 8.

Hi Rich,

This is somewhat controversial but with SAE hardware...if the joint is in shear, then Grade 5 is better and if in clamp, then grade 8 is better. I think the tow hooks are grade 10.9 as I recall when I pulled them off to install my Roadmaster base plates.

I am so grateful that you're on this site and read these threads. Thanks Phil. If you come to Maine I'll buy you a beer/coffee/whiskey.
