I don't know if there's any truth the rumor that our Ranger's have GM transmissions in them. (That's 50% question and 50% statement lol)

I know. That's why I worded my explanation the way I did , ' the more the risk'. No two people are do the the exact same off-roading. I'm sure some have regretted a taller tire too.

The taller the tire the more the risk of hitting the top, up inside the wheel well. That's what lift kits prevent.

I'd stick with stock size. If you go taller you lose suspension travel etc., plus everyone's version of 'off road' is different so It's a hard question to give an answer to.

Well, your service guy is right, they do look fine. My experience with the more aggressive AT tires, is that they're only good (in multiple ways) for the first half of their 'tread wear life'. Once that outer 50% is gone I've lost 80% of the functionality. You don't seem to notice it as...

I've never once looked at a door sticker or a sidewall for recommended tire pressure on any car/truck I've ever owned. I've put 32lbs in them and watched them for irregular wear and/or rough ride and adjusted the pressure from there. Other than the odd occurrence they've stayed at 32.

Have there any positive reviews on here from the Dorman pan at all? I can't keep up the transmission threads on here lol.

I only go at it a couple times a year, other than the occasional stop at the local car wash. Home detailing I use Turtle Wax products....wash and polish, and use other brand of ceramic spray, window cleaner and interior cleaner.

I'm no authority, but judging from your profile pic I'd say your tires have the most to do with your poor fuel economy. I noticed a difference going from OEM all seasons to OEM sized Duratracs, I can only imagine the beasts you've got.

Side body panels that are properly aligned to the one next to it....the back edge will be ever so slightly be 'sticking out' from the leading edge of the panel behind it. If you stand at your tail light, look down the side of your vehicle at just the correct angle, you should see the back edge...

Valid argument! I guess they have the same marketing strategy as Yeti, Oakley and Under Armour. It'll be a cold in 'you know where' before I buy a $45 coffee mug or a $250 pair of sunglasses. Putting money towards protecting a $40k vehicle (even falsely) is better than putting money towards...

The only way to truly know the condition of your oil to get an analysis done of your old oil. They send back info on all the ingredients and how they've held up, or haven't held up.

Tons of them on Ebay for $20 +/-. They're Boomba knockoffs.

If I decide to get one at all I'm going with this. Anyone else get one?

That's why people said they discontinued the 4G Ranger in 2011, but look what happened. They brought back an even more robust and capable Ranger.

Adjust the tire pressure. If you kept, for example, 35lbs when stock and have 35lbs now with the different leafs, shocks and tires, changing the tire pressure will make a big difference in ride.

My XL Scab. Remember the good ole days (in 2019 lol), when you could get a Scab FX4!? Good times! My only regret is that I didn't get the FX4.
