What did you do to your Ranger today?

[AndyMedic]

Found out yesterday after removal of OME Leafs that the bushing kit is different for the dobinson kit. So reinstalled and ordered the new bushing kit and their shackles to be safe. Another few weeks and it should be swap complete.

I don't know if it's too late, but I was thinking about the NHOU undercoating.

I took mine to Ziebart for the full treatment before the first winter.

New Battery, almost 5 years out of the OEM so fine by me. ???

I'm glad you're figuring this out for when I do this swap. BP51s and Dobinson's leafs are in my future because you did it and we have to have the same suspension.

Anything for you @Colo_Ranger

You should definitely do that.

Here are the pictures of the trimming I needed to make to make the Decked work with the RSi SmartCap. It does not affect the usage at all.

Finally covered up the chrome on rear tailgate emblem. Carbon Fiber look to match tailgate lettering.

MBRP single side exit exhaust. I Like it (pretty well). No drone at all. Barely notice a difference in the cab while cruising. Noticeably Louder at high idle when cold, but that’s just sitting in the driveway. So no big deal. Torque curve moved slightly. Seat of the pants pull from a stop up to 25 mph is less but then it really opens up. Going to switch my unleashed tune to 93 now instead of 87 and see if that takes better advantage of the exhaust. I always fuel with 93 but run the 87 tune as an everyday driver.

Air/oil separator. Already added an engine cover and transmission dipstick, all three things that should be standard, thank you Ford cost cutting ?

@Trigganometry and Phil Schilke have both done this. There’s a bit of detail about how it was done in this thread…

How’s it holding up Rick?

Still on 3 years later. Looks like we got a winner ?

Cleaned windshield/wipers.
Inspected catch can.

Discovered my cowl leak repair stopped working, lol.
Least my over priced engine cover is doing it's job...

You can see where the water enters and runs down.

Which repair did you do? Foam pipe?
