After many weeks, the remaining parts from Radflo are here for my 3" lift. Can't wait to get these installed :D

"Finished" gets a little closer everyday. My solar panels and controller arrived. I think one will be semi-permanent mount on the roof rack, and the other will be add-on to the roof rack or tonneau rack for extended trips.

Cheap-ish set-up from Amazon.

Decided I wanted to change the look of the front end a little bit. I know this grille is played out to some but its new to me. Received it yesterday from @Stage3Motorsports, TY Frank!

Today FedEx stopped by and dropped off my new front lower valance, 2 retainer clips and some bumper grille clips. Ordered from @LevittownFordParts.com, TY Benny. These items were not in stock, Benny told me it would take 5 days to get and shipped to me. They arrived in 4 days! Now I need to get everything painted.

It’s been a busy week since I picked up my Lariat Tremor. I’ve been busy online since. A lot still has yet to show up. I have received the updated Rockbloks mud flaps, Gorilla black lug nuts, sae plugs and pigtails for power in the bed, LED lights for the license plate and front turn signals. Purchased locally some paint for Cactus Grey, Magnetic Grey, and Race Red, plus the primer and clear coat to go with it.

For almost everything that arrived, there is something I am still waiting on to be installed at the same time. Hoping to get some of this installed Sunday.

What did Rokblok update on their mud guards ?
They made some update so they are compatible with the Tremor. Sounds like a tab is in a slightly different position and includes to correct hardware. The updated kit is universal for all North American Rangers.

Got this water sprayer at True Value Hardware for 7.99 with a coupon. Water Wand, 16-In. | True Value https://www.truevalue.com/water-wand-16-in 14.49 on Amazon.
I will use this for the garden and also to wash the Ranger. Has 10 spray patterns and the handle is adjustable or can be locked if needed. Don't use automated car washes or high pressure spray but wash it by hand with a mitt and Mequiars' car wash. These are notorious for leaking so with the 5 year warranty this should hold up.

I got my new Eibach Pro kit from @Stage3Motorsports. My only complaint is that they shipped it too fast. :LOL: I ordered on Wednesday (8/4) and it arrived Friday (8/6). I expected it to take forever, like everything lately, and I was out of town. I had to have a friend pick them up for me off my step.

Bought a set of Aries Seat Defenders from Real Truck for $28.63 each on sale now.

Will help keep crud off our leather seats after hiking.

Had trouble deciding on a color, so CAMO it is !!

I'm generally not a fan of seat covers, but these are perfect for occasional use. I leave mine attached to the headrest, and flip it over the back of the seat out of the way. When I do need it, pull it forward and snug it down, good to go in seconds and protects just what I need, without any extra crap. Great product.

I snagged a similar cover off Amazon to use when my wife and I take the boat out on the lake. I can quickly throw it on the seat after I've been launching the boat (wading in to help push it off the trailer for my wife), swimming in the cove we like to anchor, and then wading in to recover the boat (hooking up the safety chain after the wife puts the boat on the trailer). I decided to get the seat covers after I had to wade my way down the ramp to unground my boat after my wife got a little too close to the ramp before I got the trailer in and I ended up having to drive my truck soaking wet. ?

At least you didn't do what this guy did. The look on the reporters face is priceless. :shock:

I pulled 7 trucks from the lake when I was towing.

Me - Hey what happened?
Them - Started backing in, lost traction and slid right in.
Me - Is the truck 4x4, was 4x4 on?
Them - It is, but it wasn't on. I was going to turn it on if I needed it.

Every time.

That's like getting an alarm system after your house was broken into.

Well, I have to say; thank you for the information! I am relatively new to boating, and one of the reasons I wanted a Ranger was to get in a 4-wheel drive for use on the boat ramps. I actually had fixed up a 1998 Explorer Limited V8 that was awesome for towing the boat, but it was 2-wheel drive and I always worried about breaking traction on the ramp and having issues getting out.

I never considered putting my stuff in 4-wheel drive before the trouble happens. Chalk that up to my inexperience! And thank you for the tip!
