2020 Ranger King Ranch

[kieefer]

I'm taking a 2020 supercrew XLT and I'm having a local shop reupholster the interior with Katzkins King Ranch lookalike leather. I ordered King Ranch branded floor mats from the King Ranch Saddle Shop website along with a King Ranch license plate bracket. If yall want a list of other current and future modifications that I have planned to the absolute finest "T", then comment enough and I'll post the list.
Update: Floor mats are in, license plate bracket is on, seats are scheduled for Monday, March 14th. Blow off valve got installed on Sunday, Feb. 20th. Also, looking for best lift kit for around 4"-8" lift and levelled.

Sounds kinda neat and look forward to pictures.
As far as a 4-8" lift, personally I think that's too much. Level it or no more than 4" would be my preference.
I see these jacked up GM's around here and unless you're going for a show truck it makes no sense at all. Sorta like Jeeps all deck out for desert racing but will never see anything beside a dirt road.
Whatever, each his/her own.

All true unless the post is about fuel in oil. Always start a new thread for that.

dampers... don't forget the dampers... and will these tires fit. what we need is a thread saying hello to @Tracy Bowman and thanks for all the thumbs up

It's in a different location in the website. Just trying to get traffic so I can get feedback

You're doing it wrong.

All the regulars were there. Even RP. And it has dampers mentioned too!
Maybe time to dust it off, been a year...

exactly
because my grandfathers opinion on oil, and how he brought me up changes daily. Not a day goes by where his spirit guides me in my oil queries.
I might suddenly remember an anecdote passed down by him over the years that makes modern day engines and oil protection and rigging up your own quick start injection system for passing others obsolete. No sense clogging up an old thread with it. Start fresh and attract many other opinions.

For instance, he used to mix old tranny fluid with his oil and fuel tank during cold weather. He never had a problem in the 20 years that he changed his oil filter once. the car rusted out long before the engine died. That's proof right there

...and up through the ground come a bubblin' crude.....oil that is

I'm surprised this thread hasn't got a stay on topic warning yet

All you need to do is post a reply to someone else’s reply in the other thread and that will bump it. Starting a new thread on the same subject usually just results in a moderator merging them. Oh, and the poster being flamed. ?

Put on your asbestos drawers.

Now I actually have to do some work.

OP let's not start multiple threads on the same topic.

I just had to google what a "King Ranch" F-150 was. Looks nice. Very "American", in a nice way, but a nice, comfy truck.

It's funny to me, I don't think there is anything in Australia we care enough about, to make a specific themed model of truck. I've been thinking on this for a good 20 mins and I'm buggered if I know what we could do.

Maybe an "Outback Edition"?

Would have to be "Pov-Pack White".

With kangaroo leather seats (I didn't even know this was a thing, thanks Google).

2x 8' high- UHF aerials, a massive bull bar (roo's).

4x 10' Spotlights on the roof (roo's again).

A BBQ mounted on tailgate (not even joking, I googled this and it exists).

Fishing Rod holders.

CAT mud flaps (obviously CAT isn't Australian, but a lot of bogans people act as if it is), and a flashing "Mine Spec" light on the roof.

So basically, half way between these typical Australian Mine Site Utes:

And these beautiful examples of Australian culture why we can't have nice things.

Note: Optional sticker pack, denoting the owners favourite Rum.

I think I need a job at Ford.

UPDATE- MARCH 15th
I took my truck to the shop yesterday on Monday March 14th. Around 9:00 this morning I received a call that my seats are done and that I can come pick it up whenever I want today. I will keep everybody posted. As soon as I get back from the shop the floor mats are going in and the pictures are going up. Everybody keep your fingers tied cuz I have no idea how this is going to look and I'm so scared. (DISCLAIMER: in the slight chance that this whole idea comes out looking like shit, I will delete the entire thread and every shred of evidence that I even tried to do this so as to save face. Thank you for your understanding)

No no, I think you're right. 4" lift max is what I really want, But I need good lift kit ideas because I'm concerned my 20x10s aren't going to fit underneath with 33s. That's why I'm buying wheels first. If I can get my wheels and tires to fit underneath there and just go level and wide I will. But if I need a lift then I'm going to try 2" to 4" lift first and then go taller as needed. Any good two to four inch lift kit recommendations?
