What did you do to your Ranger today?

[OFC Ranger]

i decided i wanted front light bar / mount. but wasnt about to pay the price of some of the after market ones ive seen other members with. those are nice, but 300 ish bucks. pass. so i dug around in the garage and pieced some stuff together. its still a rough draft. I need to get all the hardware and wiring. gotta cut down some bolts too. i may have the parts powder coated or just hit it with rattle can black. being monday, i lost the hardware for the last light. tore the place apart looking for it. didnt wanna go buy another knowing i was gonna take it all apart to paint etc... so i improvised to see how the lights would mount and aim. you can see which pod has extra redneck hardware lol. i hope i dont find the hardware some place near the fan or belt.. should look ok when finished up.

Next thing you know you go through three revisions before your OCD is satisfied.

Dawn Enterprises moldings match OEM colors. We have White Platinum for our SCab. They also make these for SCrew.

• Packed and padded very well in a reinforced rigid tube to prevent damage or bending.
• Perfect paint match for our White Platinum.
• Easy install with attached 3M tape.
• Rigid molding pieces make it easy to get a straight line.

Link below is for SCrew

(select desired color prior to ordering)

Looks great. Thanks for the info. I like that they pack it in rigid tube. Hate it when they roll that stuff up to save on postage.

I'll tell you what I want to do to my Ranger, but I can't...

...I can't pressure wash the mud off my truck from wheelin' on Saturday because my damn pressure washer is already down at my new house in FL and I'm still in GA. ?‍ Boooooo!

What part of FL are you moving to?

The shipping tube is so nice I kept it for other projects...

The rigid tube was also reinforced with a full length sturdy right-angle piece taped to the outside of the tube. Inside, each individual molding piece was packed in it's own fabric sleeve to protect the paint finish during shipping. They arrived in perfect condition.

That right there is customer service and a company that gets it. They have my vote...and I dont have a Ranger to put that stuff on yet

How does that attach, just stick on?

Combination of 3M VHB perimeter tape and a generous tube of 3M PS, which I didn't use as I already had another smaller tube...

Installed the Extended View blind spot mirrors and engine cover.

Gonna wait for the weekend to do the Trailer Brake Controller, LightForce Panel, and Panel lighting,

Panel lighting should be simple since I left a pigtail from the PRNDS lighting.

I have one of these, but haven't had time to install it. I am also thinking it might help the air move over the RTT.
