They make really good stuff, none better. I have their 20 ton lift pad for 12-20 ton jacks. Carried it in our motor home for those "just in case" emergencies, along with a 20 ton jack.
Probably going to list it for sale as motor home is gone and don't need anything that heavy duty.

Might be worth keeping it for your new TT? I know it's way overkill but seeing as you already have it it might be worth it. Although I'm sure it weight a lot and might put you over the weight limit. lol

I was surprised at how heavy they were and how good the quality is. They have great reviews and wasn't doubting their quality but this definitely isn't some cheap junk from China and well worth the money.

I would, but I carry a 6 tonner in the Ranger and it will double for the trailer. The lift pad for the 20 ton is way to big for the 6 ton screw pad...I've tried it and the fit is such that it can easily shift...not stable at all. Maybe get enough to get the 6 ton pad.

These make using a bottle jack a lot safer and great for throwing in a recovery bag. If you already have a bottle jack you might have to have them make a custom extended screw collar.

Sweet. I'll get on this soon. After my lift and 33s the factory scissor jack is even more useless than it started and has been replaced by a bottle jack.

Discount Tire emailed me that my tires arrived. 255/80 17 Toyo AT3s. Super stoked to get them on.

Cuirous to see the photos of this size tire...have any photos?

Sure...

And from the front for an idea how the wagon wheels fit the fenders.

No rub, bars intact, still need to check @ full compression but looks like I should be good.

Doc, are those the Otanis? What's the treadwear rating on them?

Yes…Treadware is 300 ( high performance, short life )

I got the passenger heated seat installed today. Overall it was about as difficult as the install in the F150. The wiring was easier due to the center console, but the install on the seat was harder with the Ranger. Partly because I couldn't find any guides for taking apart the seat.

I managed to do it only breaking one unimportant tab on a piece of plastic. I had previously purchased a Lightforce front fascia from a forum member, and used the one empty slot I had for the switch. I'll take a picture tomorrow, but I'm very happy with how it turned out. I'll link to the one I bought because I'm very happy with it in the initial test. Seemed to heat quickly and was quite warm on high. I was able to complete the install without cutting more than one hole in the bottom pad where I needed to attach the seat cover to the seat, it was super easy.

Two suggestions: use zip ties to reconnect the seat cover instead of the little rings, its much easier. Also remove the seat. I was able to do the F150 heaters without removing the seats, but that was much more difficult with the Ranger. It's super easy to take the seat out with one person and makes the job far easier.

Generic Heated Seats

Edit: added switch picture. The partial hole is from an LED the previous owner of the fascia had installed. At some point I may get a brand new blank and make it again, but the blemishes are much harder to see in real life. The middle knob is an pre-amp adjust, and I just need to find an appropriate black knob thing to go on it to finish the job.

Edit 2: Got the driver's side installed today, went very smoothly. Holy hell, these things get toasty! Granted it's not super cold (40F), and I had it in the insulated but not heated garage, but on high it was hot before the end of my street. On low I could only have it on for 10 minutes before I was sweating. Oh how I missed heated seats.

I think you will be happy, I installed mine several thousand miles ago and have consistently been getting close to 1 mpg better every since.
