Yes, the Embark LS/Retrax cover does take up a little room in the front of the bed but it honestly isn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. There is still room to slide things enderneath the canister and we (my wife and I) are very happy with the cover. As far as the rack goes, if you order...
Here are a few pics before the Ranger heads out on it's first long road trip. Embark LS cover, Yakima Overhaul HD, and Yakima Skybox 16 Carbonite. Time to add some more stickers to the Skybox!
I emailed them about a week ago and they told me it would be about a week. Then, yesterday morning I recieved this email from them,
"Hey Matthew,
We do not have them here yet – we are waiting on our stock to come in from Australia, If you want I can get it on order for you and have it here...
Funny this thread should pop up today, I have my ranger currently in service for a few warranty issues and one of those issues is clicking/creaking sound from left rear side of the cab. You can hear it on the inside of the cab. I noticed that when it rains it seems to quiet down. Well, my Ford...
I also posted this under the TSB thread but I wanted to post it here as well,
I got the TSB done today and........not much difference if any at all. I do think that the vibration at take off isn't as bad but I need to get more seat time to be sure. I have only put about 5 miles on the new...
I got the TSB done today and........not much difference if any at all. I do think that the vibration at take off isn't as bad but I need to get more seat time to be sure. I have only put about 5 miles on the new program and that includes making sure to have the tranny go through the gears as...
Speaking of personalized plates, is there anyway we can get a running wait time on all of our personal plates? Something similar to what we have on this forum for actual Ranger orders? I know wait times for personal plates vary GREATLY depending on what state you live in. When I ordered personal...
I don't think this makes much of a difference. I chose "Auto" and not "Commercial" when I ordered my Ranger personalized plates and the order went through. The plates are not attached to any car until you pick them up at the DMV. Now, perhaps choosing "commercial" will speed up the order? -...
The 15K868 harness comes in 4 flavors, with and without backup sensors and with level 1 trailer tow and with level 2 trailer tow (tt package). It appears that the difference between the four is what connectors they have. They all plug into the same harness under the truck. So if you have back up...
I would love to build my own rack but I have never attempted to weld. That is a skill that I need to learn sooner than later. Of course learning how to weld would have to wait until I put up some of that sweeeeet pegboard paneling. Seriously, I think I am stopping at Home Depot on the way home...
Yeah, it looks like the part number for that wiring harness is, KB3Z-15K868-D (with back up sensors). It's on national backorder until 04/22. It's probably the same situation that the engine covers that went on backorder because of "unanticipated demand".
My Ranger has the vibration on take off. It does it under light throttle even when the truck is moving at a low speed and you lightly dip into the throttle and I have 2200 miles on my truck. These guys noticed it as well in their test truck at 11:24 in their video here,
What frustrates me about all these rack systems is there are very few that seem to not have an easy answer when it comes to covering and securing the bed. We are going with the Yakima Overhaul setup on my wife's Ranger because it works with the Embark LS cover on her truck. I know there are...
I'll see what I can do but it will have to wait to till tomorrow. Looking at these instructions, it looks like you reuse your original upper rear bumper pad. On the trucks that don't come from the factory with TT, there is not a cut out for the fancy seven pin plug. You will probably have to buy...
I'm getting it done on Monday. I hope you guys are aware that you are setting expectations really high. If it doesn't live up to the hype then I am holding everyone here responsible! ;)
