What did you do to your Ranger today?

[Tremot Trent]

Started week doing 1” level, then to dealer for windshield recall/alignment, finished today with mudflaps, “Done” until tires wear out. Do like that mudflaps, do to color, really aren’t that noticeable, that and didn’t have few miles of dinging rocks smacking pickup after pulling out of my gravel lot.

I designed and printed a console tray.

The only thing that belongs on french fries as some course sea salt and some thick ketchup with a few drops of hot sauce mixed in.
If you have to go all the way, than some melted cheese with crumpled bacon.

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.

Was your last vehicle a BMW?
They usually park like that first picture.

Wild-truck got today transmission soft update, oil changed, a scrach removal (I picked her up with it), extended warranty and some other stuff from service.
And there is a difference! Now finally to S mode.

Parked by mechanic. I can park a Ranger.

Dropped it off for the windshield recall and used my pass points to order mud flaps and a bug deflector. Got a New Escape loaner that doesn't impress me. Said they do a camera recalibration once the windshield is reinstalled also.

What's a "transmission soft update"?

3” front lift 1.5” rear. Fuel block 17x9 with 33x12.50r17 m/t tires

Perfect match with the color

What I meant, she got update for transmission software to improve communication between the engine and gearbox.

My last car wasn't a BMW. You see, I'm shy. So when it occurred to me to take a picture somewhere, the bank parking lot seemed like a good spot. I don't want to be out there seen taking pics of my ride so I quickly stopped, snapped, and left. It just makes me uncomfortable.

However, wrongs need to be righted and I sure don't want to offend anyone. So after seeing your post, which hurt my feelings, I went back to the bank to park more perfectly for anyone that I offended. ?

If I saw that in my rear view mirror, I'd be expecting the blue lights to turn on any second and start pulling over! That's an aggressive look. I like it ?

Welcome Adrian I hope you get as much useful information here as I have.

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

Worked like a charm! Thank you for the recommendation!

While my use of a garage door's lines, while parked on an incline from 10 feet away is in no way the correct method of light beam alignment, I'm sure it's got me on a better path than nothing. Lol.

Next project is getting my DD SSC2 Ditch lights mounted and wires run... anyone have good suggestions for easy routing through engine bay/fire wall and switch location?? Pictures would help!!

Thanks.

Seemed like the least I could do considering how skewed my "knowledge thievery" to "knowledge contributions" ratio is on this forum. ?
