What did you do to your Ranger today?

[Mirage775]

Got the AlphaRex LUXX-Series LED headlights installed, they look better than I thought they would, very impressed!

I have the AlphaRex LUXX Alpha Black lights and the pictures on Stage 3 just don't do them justice in person! I really like mine!

I guess I'll take that as a compliment??

Mine is a close clone of SCT's 2019 SEMA truck, if you didn't know that?

I've seen the Red one from Thailand, the Mustang Ranger:

And I've seen the Black LS swap one from Australia:

But, I didn't know what you were talking about, until my wife looked it up a second ago, while I was getting ready for work and I believe this is the one you're talking about?

Yea that blue one is beast. I hadn't seen the sct ones before.

yea wondering how you mounted and routed wiring atleast in bed area. Wanting to do something similar too

Just a heads up, there are enough holes and seems that you can get wire to both sides of the bed without drilling anything. Now getting into the cab is a different story. I went through a factory grommet in the driver's side rear passenger floor, which puts you in close proximity to tap the cargo circuit under the rear door scuff plate. You can check my install out in the following thread if interested (I found that thread helpful as well fyi). https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/f150leds-bed-lighting-for-the-ranger.2267/post-309598
If you zoom way in on the first pic you can see where I passed wires through.

Placed my SS3 max duals in a new location. Me likes!! ?

That has to be a ton of light!! And money spent ? I have 4 pairs of SS3 Max pods (SAE fog, driving x2, combo driving/flood) and have been very impressed with them. I'll have to get some pics up, been lagging with my updates.

Check out the first post on my build thread to learn some more about the SCT truck!

Now that the electrical wiring is complete (dear lord I hope so!). Removed all the wiring and in places where I had multiple runs removed redundant zip ties. Ran wiring loom around all the Tesa taped wires and Tesa taped the looms for a nice install and re-zip tied everything back into place. Not a ton of fun for sure, but rewarding having a nice clean electrical install.

Cool.

I have 6 pairs. (2 pairs as ditch lights) It would have been 7 if my fog lights is the SS3 max. Decided to use pros. People are not flashing me with those.

And yes, they are expensive.

Nice! I have two pairs on ditch brackets too. I hear you on the max fogs. I went with them and do get the occasional flash from other drivers. While the cutoff is spectacular, they do still look bright when you look toward them. If the oncoming drivers only knew how bright they are below the cutoff... But the output and spread is amazing, they fill the road shoulder with a ton of light!

I sprayed this on my battery terminals. My wife's mustang had a huge corrosion build up on hers. Had to replace the negative terminal.

 

[SVTPaul]

Finally ordered some middle bed tie-downs and the bolts from Benny @ Levittown. Scuffed them up and sprayed with 5-6 light coats of rattlecan bedliner I have found to be of good quality prior to installing, as my truck has the factory bedliner. I'll also get around to installing the swing case I've had sitting here since last June when these go in since they use the MISSING middle tie-down hardware. I still think this one of the most annoying part deletions Ford has done on these trucks since they came here.

Walked out of the store yesterday and decided that that was the end of the little bit of exposed pinch welds.

Also got the Carhartt Precision Fit seat covers installed. Well worth the wait, and the black goes well with the truck. Now the pup can slobber and jump wherever he darn well pleases.

those seat covers fit nicely! in the past ive bought covers that said were exact fit and it was a pain to put on still looked saggy. carhart clothes last and last i bet the seat covers are tough too.

I have a cold weather jacket that’s the same duck weave material from Carhartt. Very easy to clean and can take a beating. Up north it’s pretty much my wardrobe, Carhartt everything. Sister laughs that I’m a walking billboard for them.

With a 110lbs lab that goes with me everywhere, having good seat protection is a must. He would make short work out of the micro suede in no time.

I want those seat covers! I searched for good seat covers when I first bought my truck, and discovered those. I never pulled the trigger though.
