What did you do to your Ranger today?

[pbethel]

yes they freaking do!
My dealer here in PHX did the same to me...for the last time...and because it STILL wasn't right I took it to @Discount Tire and told them my issue. They re-balanced my tires for free (and found two tires still out of balance by 3/4 ounce each, and one where the weights had turned sideways and were loose on the wheel--causing most of the hippity hoppity issue I was having).
From now on, oil change only at the dealer and tires are done at Discount regardless of what they normally charge for a rotation and balance.

Last time I had Discount rotate and balance my tires it was no charge. April. My Transit.

I had some blue 3m reflective tape that seemed to be close match to my Ford blue hooks. So I added it to my grill and side vents.

I really like the blue accent!

Since tomorrow is service appointment and they will also check her for my complaints, I have not driven her and spent 2 days just admiring her ? Dirty, but still on shiny wheels!

Nice weather to clean it inside and admire closer, since they promise only rain from now, I used a chance.

I was not expecting such soft plastic there. I’m sure it will come loose again and soon. It’s driver’s seat.

What do you use this for if you actually do?

Every time I look at this, it reminds me I want (don’t really need) some additional lights to bed.

The cover in the bed looks like it's the one we have here. You can add a power outlet for the bed and there should be a plug in connector behind it.

Last week I ordered a set of Sumo Bump Stops from Stage 3, and got around to installing them today. Guess I got lucky as there was no thread locker on either bolt. 45 minute job...took longer to jack up either side than it did to install the stops.

After meeting up with @alan0164 to buy a bed mat, I was immediately convinced I needed a bug deflector. Installed today. I'm pretty happy with it. I also washed it but a storm prevented me from waxing.

Not gonna lie... having OE crash bars and splash guards, this was a real PITA!!! But I finally fought to get my new Diode Dynamics SS3 Pro Fog light kit installed!

Love the backlit accent.

These things nearly make the oem led headlights unnecessary. They're so bright!

Also couldn't adjust them as low as oem fogs. They're dialed as low as they can go and at less than 10ft to my garage door they were about 5" higher??

Any one else run into this issue?? Thoughts?
(Don't mind the mess, my 6yr old was "helping" with the install.)

Put some nylon spacers between the DD fog light bracket and the bumper. That will give you room to adjust them down. Also, put your truck in ramps and remove the skid plate. Makes it much easier to get to

Good idea!... the post traumatic stress of getting that splash guard off with the crash bars (even unbolted) is already sinking in ?. Though I'm sure it'll be quicker second time around.

May run out tomorrow and see what I can dig up. Thanks.

1/4 inch thick is enough to give you room for adjustment. Working from underneath is much easier.
These are the ones I bought at Lowes. There are small enough you have to thread the bolts through. Advantage is they stay on the bracket and the bolt for really easy install.

Awesome. Thanks! I'm sure 1/4" will do the trick. Lowes it is.
