today i drove the 5g to work for a change. picked it up yesterday from mechanic. the on going brake issue seems to be solved. parking brake came from ford out of whack. so longer i drove the more screwed up it got. toasted the pads, rotor, etc. Im hoping this solves it. im looking forward to enjoying the 5g again instead of loathing it lol.

Installed new battery, upgraded to the Lariat size for more power & CCA. Walmart out the door $192, 4 year warranty. Another deleted option on ALL Rangers = room to work around the battery!!

Battery Swap.jpg

I replaced my battery today as well. Had it for almost 5 years. My Lariat originally came with an 800 cranking amp battery. Got the same one from the dealer because I still had some Fordpass rewards.

Before I installed mine, I placed a trickle charger on it. Sure took a while to charge it up.

You said you "upgraded" to a Lariat size. What was your originally?

It had the original battery, H6, less CCA. 3 Years old. I probably could have put a trickle charger on it and been fine but I lost trust in it.

Made my 7th attempt to remove my oil catch can.

Quickly reminded yet again that I'm 34 years old and i can't bend my body anymore.

also got stuck yet again under the front crossmember and had a mild panic attack trying to worm myself free lmao
