  1. Diff lock always engaged in 4wd

    Ours and any other truck equipped with conventional four wheel drive will experience this; especially at low speeds. In low traction/low speed situations like gravel in particular. If your rear diff was locked it would have felt like the whole truck was moving sideways
  2. weird things lately...

    That's correct, it doesn't lock out tenth, just moves up shift points throughout
  3. Move gear to neutral w/o engine power.

    Get your Fumoto ready for the next oil change, I've used it in my last two vehicles (subaru, BMW and my truck...no leaks, mon!), the valve arm seats in a notch and it's spring loaded; and the beauty is that with a piece of 3/8" hose attached you don't have to take out the skid plate to drain the...
  4. Remote Transmission Dip Stick Aftermarket Support?

    I didn't have to move AC line, just bent wire loom bracket downward a little; no issues with stick hanging or anything else. The thing reads as advertised! As requested: my truck details are under my avatar thingie. My build date is late October 2019
  5. 2020 Ranger XL Brake Controller (Non-Towing Package)

    I know that there is a wire pair under the LH tail lamp that carries 12VDC as long as ignition is on (normally used for Bed accessory power), from which you could tap "trailer power" to the 7 pin; and the wire loom that connects to the factory 7-pin has the wires you need but only up to the rear...
  6. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    I think they would eventually save some money if they offered the manual option...just saying
  7. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    Yes he is at present trying to shake a new tranny from Ford
  8. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    No but I got a buddy with a '19 Lariat that has, and his tranny is doing the Msfitoy thing...he's had two valve body swaps (probably rebuilds) and still doing the weird shifts and lugging/bumping....

    Sorry, that was what I call an "upload malfunction"...it happens
  10. What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

    Finally did my 5-tire rotation...about 1400 miles late (doing them every 5k)...no issues with TPMS recognizing the new sensor!

    Installed my MBS transmission dip stick in 1/2 hour!
  14. Remote Transmission Dip Stick Aftermarket Support?

    My stick should be arriving today...can't wait!
  15. Manual trans?

    In the APIM module in FORSCAN you can select transmission type from manual to auto. Also, not all MT-88's are created equal; the ratios for the diesel are different from the ratios for the 2.3 stang and the Coyote V8 versions. The closest application for our trucks would be the 2.3 stang version...
  16. Tesla Big Rigs get amazing 330 miles on a charge! With no payload!

    And nobody asks where said electricity comes from to recharge said semi E-truck? not from pixie dust, nor form the magic white rectangle on the wall....
  17. Windshield Delaminating

    drive behind a gravel truck....then call your insurance company and get a new windshield. Be faster than trying to shake a new one from Ford. I'm on my second replacement windshield (New England winters are hard on windshields)
  18. Calibrated my speedometer.. Or did I?

    Update, 2425 gives me almost 50 mph (fluctuates between 49-50 on GPS and setting cruise to 50). So, 2420 might do the trick, or I might just leave it where it is now
  19. Remote Transmission Dip Stick Aftermarket Support?

    For the record, my stated interest on this goes way back to page 6....wow! not realizing Mike's Saugus was not "my" Saugus (CA vs MA)
  20. Calibrated my speedometer.. Or did I?

    I just spent the last hour messing with speed cal...I went to 2439 and 50 mph indicated was 48 mph on GPS, went back to 2435, (50/49), 2430 (same) and are now at 2425, I'll test that tomorrow. I'm probably going the wrong way, who knows? too late in the day to do the math!
