What did you do to your Ranger today?

[JohnnyO]

Nothing. Wife's parents are having some health issues so she is a couple counties away with my truck all week. Our dog has a series of appointments at the vet so I am forced to drive the minivan since a 92 lb. greyhound won't fit in the back seat of a SCab. I miss my truck but the temps been below zero and the minivan has heated seats. Also four Blizzaks.

Added some hood decals and magnetic metallic pinstripe to my Dad’s Ranger. He loves pinstripe. Im just ok about it.

I ordered a bunch of shit.

Flashed my Livernois tune

I also put back on the Tremor rail, sans hoops, and used grip tape to cover the holes.

Funny. Mine came with the pinstripe and when the weather gets warmer I am going to remove it.

Reattached the bed rail trim. Seems that it's just a push on with plastic clips and when repeated melt ice cycles occur the freezing ice expansion and subsequent melting and filling up the gap with water and then again freezing slowly pushes the clips out from the mounting holes. Had to unfreeze the mounting holes first with warm water so that I could push the clips back in.

Similarly the tailgate had frozen solid and there's nothing but the handle to open it. Was thinking which cracks first, the ice or the handle.

Would advice the designers to do bit more winter testing in the future.

Installed this "2in" level spacer
https://www.stage3motorsports.com/fr200-19-22-ranger-auto-spring-2in-front-leveling-kit.html
Which it measures at exactly 1.5in, I didn't mind because I thought it would leave me with exactly 1in of rake but in reality it only left about 1/4in, just putting this info out there for anyone interested in this kit.
And also installed the 1in FactionFab wheel spacers to just have the tires poking out from the fenders, I really like the subtle change in overall stance of the truck, eventually I'll be getting some AT tires but I'll use these up first.
I have plenty of things that arrived and are just waiting to install, so maybe I'll be posting more pics soon.

Mishimoto??? Don't do it! It's a shit job, and my hoses didn't last a year without cracking. Fuel vapors can be very hard on rubber hoses.

I need to return it to stock when the nicer weather hits.

Although I will say that when I emailed Mishimoto, they were quick to respond and offered to open a warranty claim. Thanks but no thanks. Fool me once... www.notgonnahappenagain.com

You're really peeved about them hoses. Guess you got... hosed.




Thank I'll be here most the day and night.

I like the grill. Looks Clean! Report back if you don't mind after you drive it. I've been contemplating getting one for mine but don't want to interfere with the ACC.

I've had the M2M grill on my Lariat for about 6 months and it has never interfered. It's a great product and IMO the best option out there!

Yes, winter gas in Canada will fill the can over the course of a single tankful, primarily water/gas mix. Summer gas yields next to nothing over several tankful's. Plus the hoses are cracking and will need to be returned to stock. Like I said, solid theory with poor execution.

That's the mishimoto? Seems they never used hoses that are rated for fuel/oil vapor. I have higher hopes for my JLT catch can...but will be watching closely. Thanks for posting.

Are these the same hood decals that @Ranger54 posted and linked on ebay? I didn't think they'd look good on my velocity blue but your pic has me thinking otherwise. I'm liking these, subtle and bring out the vertical profile feature of the hood. May have to order some. It's justified when you have the FP tune right? ?
Edit: upon rereading I realized my incompetence and that Ranger54 has in fact installed these on two different trucks...not my brightest moment ?

Installed a new ADARAC. Really easy install and the system is very adjustable. Currently have it set up so I can open one flap of the tonneau. Very pleased with this product so far.
