I'm so tired, I thought the bottle was supporting the entire weight of the truck. Like damn...

Thanks!great side steps!
Beautiful!I did a full detail, the color just pops now that it's clean. I did not have the dealer clean the truck at all when it arrived.
The sparkle.
The pizzazz.

It's interesting to me that there are 5 colors in this one small area of the truck... Paint, matte black, mettalic gray, red and piano black that's not even counting the silver and blue in the Ford logo....

After the first foam soak.
The foam was brown when it dripped off.

Since I installed mine, the hood has the right, precise gap that, being equally even on both sides, allows the Ranger to slice thru the air, eliminating any buffeting, and at the same time has just enough down force, equally on both sides, to firmly plant the front of the truck to the roadway.Even though it's 35° out and the rubber might be stiff, I just had to install the hood bumpers. And it gave reminded me of another deleted item: hood struts.
I used a little silicone paste (probably not needed, they slot in easily).
And the bunny faces in for proper install (thanks @RedDakooter05).
Now the hood will rattle less and not annoy the engine cover mice.

Yes! What you said! =DSince I installed mine, the hood has the right, precise gap that, being equally even on both sides, allows the Ranger to slice thru the air, eliminating any buffeting, and at the same time has just enough down force, equally on both sides, to firmly plant the front of the truck to the roadway.
Also, makes a nice "thunk" now when I close the hood !!!
ill say this the ranger has thin paint but nowhere near as bad as my 19 si had... the car was white and the plastic under the front bumper was black so it showed everything!Doing a quarter panel at a time. Lol. The turtle seemed good? I do have a lot, and a lot of rock chips. ? paint is super thin
Gotta love the desert SW. I don't have that much rust on the whole truck and it's parked outside.![]()

Spark plug change with new Motorcraft plugs. Old plugs in pictures are from front(left) to back of engine(right). 59,000 miles. I must also get some water in the back plug based on the rust. Although it was not any more difficult to remove than the rest.
