What did you do to your Ranger today?

[ndwgolf]

Is yours a Raptor or Wildtrack? ndwgolf
If a Wildtrack how did you get paddles?
Is there a kit for that?

Cheers...

My truck is a 2018 Ranger Widetrack. I bought the Raptor steering wheel complete with the paddle shifters and had it installed on my truck. The technician had to remove the lower right switches from the Raptor wheel and replace them with the Ranger wheel switches to get the cruise control to work. Apart from that as far as I know it was plug and play.......... it really make the truck so so responsive and a lot of fun to drive.

I nearly added these bad boys Cooper STT but went with BF Goodrich instead

My nephew called the HKS rep in Bangkok yesterday and he said for another ~$300 there is an electrical component you can add to the system to MAYBE make the BOV scream but I worry about throwing more money at it and nothing happens?

Final round of dealer v. me when I bought my FX4, I agreed to their last price, if they would throw in all-weather floor mats and splash guards - they said yes and asked how many splash guards - I stated I would like both front and rear. I did not specify which I wanted, so they made the decision to include a set of Gatorbacks. When I pulled them out of the box, I was pleased with all but one thing - was not too fond of the chrome 'Ranger' on the metal panels - have the black out package on the FX4.

So after a little contemplating, decided to see how the metal panels would look flat black - pleased at the moment with the results - will see how long the paint lasts - might flex-seal spray them next time for a more rubbery texture . . .

Running boards will stay relatively clean now.

Did some tuning with my dual sub setup and admired my flares

Can you show us your sub setup? I want to get a behind the seat setup, as I can't find any to fit the cubby under the seat, but a dual sub setup sounds nice!

Installed the nerf bars i got off amazon that were only $180.
Overall, went well. I put anti-seize on the bolts to prevent rusting. Might decide on something else in the future, so want the bolts to come out easy.

You can fit one of these nicely underneath each of your front seats. It's not the strongest sub, but it certainly rounds out the sound and they're super efficient (I have both of them sharing one 10a fuse).

Good evening:
Here is the Auxbeam install with a dual USB replacement. So far I've only installed the switch panel because I keep changing my mind on the farkles. I know I'm going to install rear lights, but as to the rest still thinking!

Screwing around with functionality of the Feniex 4200 Mini I got for free.

Not bad for low wattage led bars. These will be for my platform perimeter lighting x10 (4 each side, 2 rear) . They will be primarily for constant on, but it will be nice to have emergency lights if the occasion arrives.

Just a mock up job, the sides are actually two panels long.

I like it! Where are you planning on mounting the Feniex 4200 controller? I am getting ready to purchase one and debating on mounting either on the builtright dash mount I just got or down low below the 12v outlets.....then it will control the dash light i have in the front window and 2 more quad lights i am getting for the rear window.

Mounted this one below using a magnet based phone mount. That way I could angle it for natural use. I see some people mount it here and it is straight vertical, not sure why they do that.

Since its held on by a magnet I can pop it off to still plug something in usb if I need to, then pop it back on. I spliced it into the same power wire as my dash top box. Easiest install ever. I'll show some pictures, but I run the harness behind and down the center console, it comes out briefly by the driver side passenger area, goes under the floor matt, then up under the back seat to where all the electrical work will tie together to feed out the rear.

Need to finish up rear corner mending plates to tie the panels into each other, but....

Finished day tooting around with rear light placement. Think I have these where I want them.





3 more to be installed evenly spaced the length of vehicle (total of 4). Not bad for flush mount reverse bars (meant for trailers). Ground light cut off is right around 5 foot from the vehicle. I could move the lights down further, but it does what I want it to, low power perimeter lighting. Should be just about right once all 4 are up and running.

I need to get a high brake light mounted. I like how yours worked out.
