  1. Brake pedal fading when stopped.

    This is a known issue (from the factory) - that the dealers and ford will say - Its (NORMAL) However - if you perform a full complete system bleed - ABS Module + All 4 Corners, you will find that there is (Air) in the system - with a great amount noted in the RR. This will bring the brake pedal...

  2. Brake pedal fading when stopped.

    I have the soft brake pedal like many others. More concerning is the pedal fads while I'm stopped at red lights. If I apply light to moderate pressure on the pedal the truck starts creeping forward. I am not letting up on the pedal. Also, if I hold the pedal down with heavy pressure it gradually...

  3. R&R front coilovers

    I've always done. Start with Farthest away to closest to master cylinder. Also have read in here about the FORSCAN method and only doing the abs system. Mine have been Squishy since I got it. Dealer said it was " normal".. I told them Bullsnot! No way im hell brakes should feel like you are...

  4. R&R front coilovers

    Yeah, a regular old-school style brake bleed will help the soft brake feel. It’s nice if you have a helper to pump and hold the brake pedal. Some scanners have a bleed feature, as does Forscan, but it only bleeds the ABS system and not the brake lines. There’s a sequence to bleeding them in...

  5. 21 Ranger XLT Brake peddle mushy since new

    As mentioned above, that’s a driver adjustment issue. A couple of times, while wearing work boots and winter boots, I didn’t pay proper attention to my foot placement and caught the accelerator on the way down while braking when pulling into my garage and another time while coming to a stop at...

  6. 21 Ranger XLT Brake peddle mushy since new

    A soft brake feel is normal on these trucks. Doesn’t mean it’s right or has to stay that way. The ABS bleed only goes so far - it likely only bleeds the master cylinder. Do yourself a favour Jack - get that bride of yours sitting in the driver’s seat and have her assist you with a proper...

  7. 10R80 the beginning of the downhill slide?

    I actually think it is because I babied it too much. I have always used a light foot on the gas and this keeps the transmission torque converter slipping far too long and heats up ther fluid very quickly. I've gained insight into this after installing the ScanGauge and tracking fluid temps...

  8. Dealing with cap weight and rear suspension

    I currently own a 2019 ranger XLT witch I left stock but added an ARE bed cap to it when new. I've got 60,000 mi on it now and can definitely feel some softness in the rear suspension most likely from the constant weight of the bed cap and occasionally pulling my small utility trailer with an...

  9. Brake Pedal Issues

    One of the first things I noticed about my new to me '19 XLT was the soft brake pedal. Saw all the comments about Forscan so I down loaded it and got the adapter. It didn't connect to the computer but read to download the updates for the adapter and then it worked great. I then bled the ABS and...

  14. New Members Introduce Yourself!

    New to the forum. Picked up my truck in Fairfield, California and drove it back to Texas. Austin area dealers are bad about discounts and this truck had color, options, etc. With them not making 2023 Tremors any more I had to go where the remaining truck was. Thanks to this forum I have a pool...

  15. FIX YOUR MUSHY BRAKES

    Yep had my 2019 to the Dealer for other things and mentioned the soft brake pedal and they put a tension meter / spring on it in some way and said it met specifications. Total BS that the brakes are that bad and still are to this day and totally scarey. I have seen posts here about connecting a...

  16. 3 yr Rangerversary = FORD survey

    ford knew better than send me a survey after i got one for one of my mustangs that had an engine sounding like a 1920s john deer at 300 miles lol. pretty sure they blocked my phone number.

  17. 3 yr Rangerversary = FORD survey

    I would say happy 3year Rangerversary, but it doesn’t sound so happy.:(

  18. 3 yr Rangerversary = FORD survey

    I now have this scab Ranger XLT Sport 4X4 for 3 yrs & 10 days, yesterday I received a survey from Ford about the Ranger. I stated I was not a happy FORD owner & explained how I felt the truck was not complete as the 1st thing that was noticed was the gap around the key mechanism. then how I...

  19. SS brake lines... specifically, rear, stock replacements... Where to find??

    the lines are not the issue... your crazy of you think SS lines will fix it... Don't replace what does not broken

  20. SS brake lines... specifically, rear, stock replacements... Where to find??

    I'm tracking your progress @PltFX4 . Interested to see the turnout. I HATE (and that is a very strong word) the soft brake pedal in the Ranger. I have slotted and drilled rotors and upgraded pads, but the response on the pedal is a JOKE. A brake bleed is immanent, but if I can replace a...
