Just installed the redtek window module. It works great! All windows express now. Be careful taking the door panel off though if you have ambient light I broke the clear tube taped it together hopefully it works ill check it when it's dark out tonight. Highly recommend this product. Hopefully it last.

Nothing exciting, but changed oil, rotated tires, and greased my Icon UCAs. Tomorrow I am going to attempt to install a GMRS radio which will be the first attempt at running any wired through the firewall.

RETIRED!!!!
Washed and waxed my Ranger and mom’s Escape for the first time in like 2 months and many road-trips. The Escape went to Mexico a few weeks ago and I’ve been all over Texas lately. Tried Chemical Guys Diablo wheel cleaner for the first time. Not a huge fan as it worked well but took most of the bottle to clean two cars. I’m definitely going back to meguiar’s and staying with that. Of course installing new suspension parts means I was obligated to spend a few hours to clean up the rig inside and out :LOL:

Also warranty is up in 6k… and I just happen to have a HPTuners MPVI2 from my last Mustang that’s itching to be installed…

I like a lot of Chemical Guys stuff, but not a fan of the Diablo wheel cleaner.

Test fitment. Couple of minor things I don't like, but that is more my OCD than anything. I think final placement is going to be a few inches higher.

Thanks.

As the saying goes, "All the cabinets in a carpenters house are falling apart."

I took that to mean when you take some you enjoy as a hobby and make a living of it, you run the risk of not giving a crap about it when you clock out for the day and go home. Not absolute of course, but I can see the point of view.

I was a bit bored today while waiting for radar detector hardwire and fuses to arrive, so i thought my flat black Grill needed a subtle update, i had the Plasti-Dip in Gunmetal Gray, so i taped off and decided to do the outer portion which includes 'RANGER', after it dried i painstakingly removed the gray coating from the ranger letters to reveal the black, i think it came out good, kinda breaks up all the flat black on the front end.

Couple thousand rounds of various sunshine seeds for an emergency. :inspect:

Lock box holds some documents inside a fire resistant pouch. If I gotta eject from the party, gotta have my papers.

Finally got around to installing the kicker door speakers and front tweeters and Dynamatting all of the doors - radio sounds much better now, and the doors have a satisfying "thunk" when they close instead of that hollow tin can sound.

Also installed a Peragon Tonneau cover two weeks ago, love it so far.

I've also heard that the mechanic's car is the last to get fixed and the lawn car guy has the worst looking yard.

Installed the Ford all-weather floor mats.........Console Vault.......Bed Mat........Case Slide........turned out pretty well. The rear floor mat is unusual........left side and center hump are one piece......passenger side by itself. Don't know why they did this. Maybe a torch and melt 'em together as one! Haaaaaa!:like:
