What did you do to your Ranger today?

[subquark]

Installed front dampers! Now I open slow and smooth in the front and in the rear!

Redline Tuning hood struts, super easy install (easier than Husky floor liners).

Great kit with excellent instructions featuring a forum member's nice looking truck.

They're the Gloss Titanium ones right? I was thinking about those for my Cactus Grey but they look quite dark in these pics

I believe that's what he said they were, they're a touch darker than the carbonized gray my truck is.. I'll try to remember to get a good picture of the truck sitting in the sun tomorrow for you to get a better idea.

Installed Morimoto smoked led side markers.

And I gave her a much needed bath.

That'd be great thanks

I applied my tailgate lettering. Dark gray, tried to match the trim. I am much more of a technical kind of guy and this felt more like, I dunno, touchy so I was a little nervous putting them on. I used the wet method for the first time and I think it turned out better, even the wife approved.

Looks great - how tough was it wiring in that light? How freakin’ big is the relay?

It's that Statue-of-Liberty look—I likes it!

Take your stinking paws off me, you damned dirty ape!

That does look terrific and it does match the trim really well.

$100 for struts still too much for me... I'm used to snagging my skull on the hood corners at this point anyway.

Well, it's cheaper and easier than installing Ford struts, I guess you'd need to do some welding or brazing? Not sure, but this was easy and a splurge for sure.

My splurges consist of shocks, and a battery powered weed trimmer...

What year and trim do you guys have? My '19 XLT has them from the factory, but I don't think they say Ford, hard to read! Pls excuse the dirty engine compartment, and lack of engine cover, I refuse to spend good money on one ( as opposed to bad money!)...

They removed the struts in later '22s. Some '22s still had the mounting hardware, but later ones, like mine, had nothing. This kit is incredible easy to install.

I don't know why the struts were so important to me, but I was disappointed when I learned that I wouldn't have them.

And mine's an XL ...

All the excess gas that use to be going to the dip stick has been redirected to power the light. Oil-Gas dilution problem solved!
