What did you do to your Ranger today?

[SVTPaul]

Just remember the 2nd number is height not width. Mine are the same width as stock but 2 inches taller (fills the wheel well and gives it that beefy look).

I have not noticed or heard any scrubbing, verified under the frame there was no rub Marks (probably because they’re highway tread).

The NEGATIVE is the Speedo issue; dealers can not adjust it other than factory…so I will have to figure an aftermarket option out.

Recalibrating the speedo is a breeze with FORScan fyi. Edit: I see I'm not the first to reply with this. The FORScan thread is very helpful. I read it a few times (many pages, takes a while but great info). And there are a few helpful tutorial videos on YouTube as well. The resources are there to be well prepared before diving in ?

Love them. Absolutely beautiful. Discount tire made it flawless with the ability to purchase same day and install same day.

The new rubber looks awesome! Thank you for your support; glad to hear the store was able to dial in the installation same day.

I've been running two sizes of tires on my trucks for years, and never had FORscan until the Ranger. I always did the math manually and put a post it note on the speedo for a few days after changing them each season or trip.

In most cases the difference is very small, but depending on the speed enforcement protocol in your area, and how close to the limit you cruise, it could be enough to get you a ticket. TIRE SIZE CALCULATOR is an amazing tire and wheel information resource for determining sizes, difference, off-set, mph variance, etc.

I flip tires multiple times/year, and even with FORscan now I don't plan on changing my speedo. Factory tires everything is good, 33s I adjust my speed.

Also your odo will be out. 60 miles on the odo will be 62.2 actual travel distance, which is something to consider when calculating MPG if you do (2.2 miles @ 60 mph is for 265/60-18 vs 265/65-18).

Starting off with the basics (the pumpkin spice latte of mods, if you will) by changing out the rear shocks for Fox units. I also added red tow hooks for +10 Off-Roading Capability and so that people know I mean business.

I didn't want or need one, but I did it just hoping it makes Dave feel better.

Rear seat delete parts came in this morning. Installed them and finished up my doggie seat platform. Everything is secured to floor and seats are strapped down.
Now the kids can ride in comfort and see whats going on around them.

Thanks. You saw what they looked like and their size in the doggie posts. Had I just mounted their seats to the floor, it would have been like sitting in a dark cave for them.
When we travel we're on the road for 6-7 hours at a stretch, so they need to be comfortable and aware of whats going on.

Are they harnessed while in them? The seat back top mount points would be an ideal place for hard loops

 

[Grumpaw]

Oh yeah....each seat has built in tethers, and they both wear a harness when we travel. Tethers attach to their harness.
Your idea is excellent....threaded hole is already there. If needed I will use that as another hard point.
Seat platform is bolted to the floor, seats are secured with tie downs and the cinch strap.
Thanks for the idea.
