What did you do to your Ranger today?

[BettaRanga]

When I got this in I was actually heading out of town with a trailer. Just got back and put it on with two thoughts: a bed step and deterrent.

Reading the included documentation it makes more sense as trucks don't have the same rear crash protection built in as sedans do.

Are you still using this? Any way you can take a side picture of the whole truck and rear picture of it from further back?

My Edsel (Ranger) got new shoes today!!

Blackout Package wheels. They look good on there! I just reinstalled mine back on my truck. What size tires are you running on them, and are you running spacers? I ask because I'm considering leaving them and selling my aftermarket wheel/tire setup.
Thanks!

I have a simple RC level kit, so I went with a 275.65.18 with no spacers, i just feel sketchy about spacers. I did not want any rubbing at all and it rides awesome with the Wildpeak AT3 on.

Thanks for the info. I'm really not a fan of spacers either. I run that same size tires on my aftermarket wheels. I wasn't sure if that size would fit on the stock wheels without rubbing the struts. Looks close.
Thanks.

Before I had the new tires installed I put that against the old tires on the truck and it really looked like it was going to rub to the point that I purchased the intrusion bars from stage 3. I just emailed emailed stage 3 to return the intrusion bars as I do not need them. It rides amazing.

Had the front windows tinted a shade lighter than the factory rears.
Looks good and keeps the Sun's rays and heat from coming in ?
Disregard the reflection of my pot belly on the rear door lol

Walked into the garage and saw this…

Gonna need this…

JB3C-3052-AA

Too bad it’s Sunday.

A little follow-up…

Our good friend Benny @LevittownFordParts.com took the engineering numbers from the stabilizer link and gave me the proper Ford part number along with a big shipping discount. He’s a great sponsor and we’re lucky to have him around.

After exchange, duty, taxes, int’l shipping, blah, blah, blah, it makes more sense to source it here. Sorry Benny but if I was stateside, you’d totally have my business.

I’m a mile and a half from a big Ford dealer in downtown Toronto but I went a different route on this. I called up the local Ford dealer in the small town where my cottage is. They’re great folks to work with and can have it there tomorrow - I’ll be there by then also.

Maintaining that relationship is important because one day, something is going to need attention when I’m up at the cottage and out of warranty. The occasional wheel alignment, oil change, or parts purchase can really go a long way with the right folks.

Got my front end alignment done this morning after installing the Eibach Pro-Truck Coilovers and BDS UCA’s on Saturday. Very pleased with the outcome. Think Im going to be done for a while. Alignment was just some minor toe-in, nothing else.

Added this lower grill insert from Stage 3 to fill the void around my ACC.

Looks good in my opinion, now to see how it holds up.

Not necessarily today, but this weekend involved new wheels (MR305), Icon UCAs, RTR Fender Flares, and crash bar removals (adding in BDS intrusion beams as soon as they arrive).
