Not sure now that they just took it away i will get serious and start looking whats available for eithee another Ranger or maybe a van

Well my “Moody Blue” 2019 Ranger is no more as I damaged right side after I hit a tree - didn't look that major as no frame or front end damage occurred. Insurance advised not economical to repair (89,000Km) so i accepted a payout and local auto auction people picking up today. Sad i really...

I noticed wear marks on both front wheel hub assemblies near lower ball joint / lower control arm. Have had a Fox 2.0 1.5” lift quite a while now using stock 265/65/17 tires. Recently install 285/70/17 Falken Wildpeak tires with Fuel Covert -14mm offset

I would be interested in shop manuals I have 2019 FX4

7850? and 3 months wait to repair

Yes I ended up taking to a shop and they got both bolts out of the captive nuts - they also had a hell of a time and they broke the other bolt as well - I believe they used heat but can't remember how they ended getting the remainder of bolt out of the captive nuts. I now have the bumps stops...

Ended up ordering Icon leaf pack and Fox 2.0 shocks from local shop - will report back findings when installed

Yes that is my concern that i dont overload the truck capacities - maybe my description of “sags pretty bad” in an over reaction as it just surprised me that the load i was carrying dropped the rear end as much - going to get some measurements unloaded and loaded again and go from there

Lucky - broke the bolt on mine and ended up taking a shop and they broke the second - mine was a 2019 and just changed out last fall so may have been rusted more - use lots of penetrant and maybe some heat as well - not always easy ?

Thankyou Yes i am keeping an eye on weight as last i checked it was very close to max total weight while still not max weight on rear axle - had made some plywood slides out for all the camping gear but now back on a weight loss program when discovered i was so close to limit of the ranger -...

I have a stock 2019 FX4 daily driver with a RSI Cap and RTT ( tent and camping geat not on all the time). With all gear ond tent on pretty well maxed out payload limit and sags pretty bad - i did try some Timbren bump stops which helped when loaded but dont think is the best solution yet...

2019 - yes the bump stop slipped out easy- was trying to take bolt out to install Timbren SES bump stop and bolt snapped - i figure the top nut is spot welded to frame - easy job turned into a pain

Hmm i broke the bottom 13mm bolt head off bolt but top nut and remaining thread one still frozen on frame?

Do you know if the stock bump nut is welded to frame(inside frameI just broke bolt off bump stop ?

Thanks for suggestions Drew i dont think the decked system is much lighter though considering added a sheet of plywood to bolt it too - i also have the full bed rug so that may have to go - have you ever weighed it with full load?

Good question - I think I used 3 sheets of 3/4" plywood minus some scrap + one 44" HD locking slide so estimate storage slide around 180 - 200 lbs? Tent is 156 lbs and RSI cap - 200 lbs - and haven't even included water.... time for some load shedding redesign

MY 2019 Crewcab FX4 that had a 1" droop on both front and rear drivers side - dealer changed out rear leaf springs and improved a little (1.2 -3.4" to within specs according to dealer) but after another 15000km droop is back to where it was

Good to see you got your original question answered - I saw it but was freezing out last night and didn't want to climb up and measure in the dark.... on a side note I have switched too the RSI Smartcap as well and a 2 person 4 season Treeline RTT (156 lbs) so along with my DYI drawer setup and...
