RETIRED!
So that's why there is constant bickering going on between my wife's Escape (sans engine cover) and my Ranger. Thanks for the heads up. :cool:
Life in the garage is much quieter now that each vehicle is getting the same upgrades. The escape got a set of hood struts too. :)

I'm not sure the front ones would fit in the rear, however, they do make rear spacers for Tacomas and they look like big washers. I would think they would fit with longer bolts.

Thanks...Yes I have done the spacer thing before in previous trucks. I guess I'm one of the few that don't like my seat to be super slanted to the rear. In my sports cars yes but not so much in my trucks. Weird I know.

Not weird at all, if you do it, I'd love to hear how you make it work and your thoughts on it.

? I am considering buying a cloth upholstery set from one of the members here. I know, more weirdness, but I like cloth upholstery especially now that I live in SC. If I do the conversion I will likely mess with the angle. Fortunately I have power tilt on my truck so the angle is not as bad as in some of my previous trucks e.g. my 2022 Maverick which was one of the reasons I traded it for the Ranger. I could never make the seat comfortable even after lifting the rear of the seat bracket and I hated the "Active X" seating material. My Ranger is OK but if I have to take them out anyway I might fiddle a bit.

Good plan. At least you now know where your spare plugs are. :cool: If you are like me after about 2 weeks you will never find them in your garage ?
