I lived in northern Minnesota/Wisconsin up until little over a year ago.
Just thinking about deer... BAM! they materialize out of thin air in your path of travel.


Staring at you like brain dead homicidal windshield crushers.

Already sounds like your heart’s changing toward it. Maybe with a little time you will really enjoy your Ranger.:sun:

I had my TPMS sensors reset. After either my tire change or my FP Tune, my sensors were wonky. All pressures were confirmed at 37 psi but the gauge read 41, 39, 41, and 43.

Here’s the trick: you need someone with a tpms tool. I used @Discount Tire locally. Set the parking brake. Turn key to acc. Press the hazard button quickly until the trunk honks. Use tool to set pressure from front left(first) to rear left (last).

All pressures read 37 now with the pressure confirmed at 37 by Discount Tire’s fancy auto inflator.

Interesting, but unfortunately, it's over 200 miles to the closest Discount Tire!!

Every light on the thing are now LED. I have no idea why this was so important to me, but it was.

Rear turn signals are pretty bright but, washed out the camera on my phone. Rest look 2-3x brightness of stock and super amber, so happy.

Just need to adjust the way the bulb sits in one of the mirrors, so it fills whole lamp evenly. Didn’t notice until I saw the pics.

No hyperblinking either, obviously.

And my DRL’s seem to stay on with indicator on. I swear I saw the same truck the other day and it turned off when his indicator came on. Anyway, who cares, looks better.

I replaced my rear ICON VS 2.0 shocks with the ICON 2.5 CDCV piggybacks...
The front ICON 2.5 coilovers will be replaced by the CDCV 2.5 remote reservoirs when I have more time...

Did you get in on the UCA buy too? You have ICON leafs correct? Which setting (#1 or #2) You mentioned it in the Leafs thread, but it is late Friday, so I am not on point.

I am headed down this path. The same 2.5 piggyback rears, but just VS ET RR 2.5 Fronts, not sure I need the CDCV. I am thinking we are going to end up with similar setups. Curious how it turns out as it will get me going.

Finished up the little things on the ditch lights. Bolt and nut were annoying me. Threaded cover screws on and covers the bolt and nut. Not sure about the red yet, may redo them in black.
