Looks like you did a great job of achieving an effectively very large base rack as everything is at an equal height. I'm actually planning to do similar by mounting a second base rack on an OVS Expedition topper, adding a roller attachment at the back and finding suitable saddles for our kayaks...
I'm waiting to hear back from a local dealer on the cost to supply and install it. Whether I do it myself will probably depend on their price. If it's reasonable I plan to have them do it.
Okay, thanks for confirming. That's the size they list fir the Ranger-specific application but thought yours might have been longer. It sure looks great on there btw!
Resurrecting this thread as I'm looking into getting one of these. Thanks for posting these pics, is this a USDM or Australian Ranger? And what dimensions are the rack?
I'll offer my experience...had my dealer install the Eibach kit set at 3" up front (and 1" blocks in the rear) before I took delivery of my '21. They said there was no issue getting the alignment in spec and judging on how even my tire wear has been over 3 years I have no reason to doubt them.
Yes it was in the BCM but it was a while ago that I made my changes so I can't remember the specifics. Like Gizmokid said though, it is pretty self explanatory once you see it. I need to play with it again soon and extend the power off time for infotainment system after switching ignition off.
Yes super easy to do and very necessary. My headlights were a fair amount too high after a +3/+1" Eibach lift. Found a nice parking garage to readjust the aim and also did my DD SS3 fogs at the same time.
Depending how much you want to spend, the Trigger 6-Shooter is a nice option to check out. It has a wireless controller unless you want switch backlighting (I did), and even then just a single light gauge wire pair to the base. The switch bank sits on a magnetic base so you can take it outside...
Most of the led strips the folks have added on here draw like 2 amps or less. But of course the upfitters are the safer route. I haven't seen anyone report an issue using that circuit though.

Also, fyi no issues with my setup after 2+ years in service.
I've used Prolightz in Quebec on multiple occasions for the Ranger and a few previous vehicles. Always great customer service. I'm actually just waiting for a Black Friday deal to make another order with them.
I'll chime in on this with my experience. My '21 never had this clunk issue until recently after my center support bearing failed at ~27k km. I had it replaced under warranty and was hopeful it would go away, but it remained.
I assume what you're referring to is what can be felt just at the...
Did he try using the tow/haul function or sport mode on the Ranger? Either should alleviate those complaints at the cost of fuel economy (but who buys a truck for fuel economy?) I frequently use sport mode or remove some of the top three gears depending on the terrain, hills, cruising speed...
I copied Sid on this...and possibly a few other mods he has done. His build thread was great reading material back when I was waiting for my truck to be delivered. Be warned though you'll be spending some $$$ if you read through it 😄
I'd be more concerned about functional issues. Have you tried them yet? They look great on my RTR flares and blend right in but my driver side light didn't make it through one of our harsh winters without a few of the LED's in the strip dying. My expectations were low especially considering the...
Interesting. I've been using the Raptor splash screen and use night mode permanently for as long as I've had my truck, but haven't tried the Lincoln colors. I need to look into this.
I assume you're referring to a different charging pad? I'm using the pad that Dirk uses and haven't had any issues in the 1.5 years it's been in service. I also wired in a separate fused power supply for quick charge and my phone sits there any time I'm in the truck.
Haha I hear you, I bit the bullet and haven't regretted it for a second (I'll be the devil on your shoulder lol). 17x9 +1mm offset with 295/70r17. I researched the hell out of different flares/wheels/offsets back before I decided which route I wanted to take.
