It's a shame the tailgate is so damn heavy though... If only someone made a product to ASSIST you with DAMPENING the way it slams downwards....

i Love that truck! It is my favorite body style of ford trucks. I always watch craigslist etc. just to see if one comes up at a deal lol. dont let it go . hard to find them now that are not trashed or the owner thinks its made of platinum.My other "Ranger" does it's fair share of off-roading. It's a 1981 F-150 Ranger.

Be forewarned the fx4 shocks are garbage. I just put coilovers on after having it nearly 3 years. I should have driven straight from the dealer to the suspension shop. It’s a completely different truck now. Other than that love this truck.

Does frame flex count as articulation? Interesting to see the entire truck flex like that.My other "Ranger" does it's fair share of off-roading. It's a 1981 F-150 Ranger.

I went and looked at that Ranger in NRH about a month ago! I pulled the trigger on a 2019 Lariat FX4 in Grapevine last week but had my eyes on that truck for quite some time. Congrats!
I've already put on a set of 5100 Bilsteins on the front and can feel a night and day difference regarding the bounce and roll issues from the FX4 already. I'm going to put the rears on later tonight. Only issue I am running into now is my tires are rubbing the knuckles on both sides. I think its the +55 offset factory wheels that are the issue, and need to replace with aftermarket +25 or +18 wheels.

If I remember correctly, I believe they had it listed for $42.5k when I went to look at it.
