What did you receive in the mail today for your Ranger?

[Chris M]

Sorry to bring up a 2 year old post, but do you notice any excess hood vibration with the Aeroskin II? I'm looking to get one but can't seem to get a definitive answer on pros/cons.

I have one.
No vibrations or any other adverse effects.

Just to be clear, I have the one pictured in your post. Attached to the hood with the tape supplied in the box.
Many car washes with nary a bit of movement. I dont drive fast...max about 75mph...no movement or vibration.

New dash cam
Thought I read here, there was a mount that integrated into the huge plastic rear view mirror mount?

Do you mean the Dongar adapter?

I couldn't use one on my XL but I did use one on my wife's Mazda - so easy and clean.

This video is a '22 Ranger:

Yeah, that may be it. dont see a ranger kit.
could have sworn someone here used a kit that plugs into the R mirror.
This may by it.

This is the one I used. Well, I used the now discontinued version but its the 3-pin connector.

Yep, I also bought the Dongar 3 pin connector kit, I got it from Amazon back in February. I Installed it a few months ago and it has been working great for my dashcam so far.

I picked up a front diff lowering kit for when I install my front Eibach shocks. Front axles will stay very near their relative angles with this kit. Not much to it, and it was inexpensive. Still debating the pros and cons of it.

Just put one of these battery charger cables on my '22 Ranger today. But...

While doing the positive side, the entire positive cable assembly popped off in my hand. I don't think it was the least bit tight. I believe the tension on the wires were holding it down because it slipped right back down where it belonged on it's own.
And it reconnected with quite a spark.

It's on tight now. Whew!
I've checked the battery cables countless times for corrosion, but apparently never for how tight they were. From now on, I will.

TPMS Tool kit. Now I can program my new TPS on my new wheel sets.....

I'm a few days behind on this but, yes, the Dongar is a really easy plug-and-play solution.

Oh man, just when my wallet stopped having the DTs, you have to post this!

Dang it, gotta order one! =D

Or maybe I'll make a TPMS bypass like this!

You can change the trigger pressure using Forscan and... if you have Forscan, you can relearn the sensors. Although... I have never had to relearn my sensors. They've always adjusted after 10 minutes of driving, max.

Didn't need to use any other special tools. This cost me only 35 bucks on eBay Factory OEM Part. (Watch out as there are other devices that are cheaper but may not work) Didn't want to take any chances and got the OEM one. My new Wheel sensors was able to be program thanks to this little tool.

What is this TPMS bypass suppost to do for you? Doesn't the sensor need to be rotating in a tire to wake it up?

This came today….

It is just about time to replace the pads - rotors are fine and true to 5G Ranger form, the rears are wearing faster than the fronts.

It’s not a design flaw or faulty/stuck callipers. It’s just that this truck is so much fun that it’s too tempting to be Hoonin’ around and giving the traction control a workout. Well, at least, that’s my theory.
