  2. Crooked truck

    I Thanks, I'd really appreciate that.
  3. Crooked truck

    I just got a 2020 Ranger (Lariat) a few weeks ago. I was looking at it the other day and it looked like it was a little crooked. I went and got a tape measure, and checked at the front wheel wells, and on level-ground with no load in the truck, there is a 5/8" difference between the passenger...
  4. What did you let go to get your Ranger?

    Replaced my trusty 2007 Honda Pilot that I had for years. I put that thing through some real paces and had lots of adventures. I'm glad to have something with more ground clearance - hoping not to bottom the Ranger out as much. :P (This is my fourth Ranger, I'm loving the 5G so far)
  5. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    I am in Ontario Canada, and went down to NY to pick up my Prinsu rack. (6 weeks to have it delivered to Canada, 5 days if I went down to NY to pick it up) lol.. So I got home with it around 2pm Saturday, and had it done by 4pm Sunday. It was much more involved than I expected, but I got it...
  6. Fix load to cab + box?

    You're absolutely right about the problems with the pencil experiment and with the amplification of the affect 2-3 ft up. I was going to attach pencils taped to the cab facing downwards to tape mounted on the box to give me visibility into another axis, and it was when I was walking into the...
  7. Fix load to cab + box?

    I appreciate your input but I feel like you don't quite understand my question (which may be my fault for not being clear enough). I understand that the bed/cab interface is unchanged between the 5G and 6G, and I know when they refer to flexible in the description of the 6G rack, they are...
  8. Fix load to cab + box?

    Agreed, about all of that, I wasn't really questioning whether welding the cab to the box was a bad idea - (it seems clear, that would be a bad idea.) In the interest of "science", I did a 10 minute test a little while ago, I attached some pencils to the box and some tape to the cab and went...
  9. Fix load to cab + box?

    Yeah, I get what you are saying, and appreciate that this is anecdotally true, it just seems like the 6th gen rack doesn't consider that - so I was questioning to what degree it was still true? That article doesn't only show a surfboard with bungees (which would probably allow the surfboard to...
  10. Roof Racks (Canada)

    Thank you, thats exactly what I wanted to know.
  11. Roof Racks (Canada)

    Hey @Danager - Since you have the trim piece - is it all that different from a generic door edge guard? Is it worth buying the pricey one from the company, or would something generic work the same way?
  12. Fix load to cab + box?

    I recently got a 2020 Lariat Supercrew, and am outfitting it. I am looking at getting a roof rack, and either a cap or a rack for the box. I've been investigating different roof racks and have seen references to instructions that seem to indicate NOT to attach a load to both the box (via...
  13. Roof Racks (Canada)

    This is great info, I have more research to do! Thanks :)
  14. Roof Racks (Canada)

    I had not recognized the distinction between the NA, and ROW Rangers. This comment may have saved me a bunch of headaches, so thank you sir. I have resolved myself to drilling into the drain channel for installing a rack.
  15. Roof Racks (Canada)

    Where I live we get a fair amount of snow. When you have a foot or more of snow on your vehicle it's a pain to clean it off to begin with - it's especially a pain on a higher vehicle, and it's even more of a pain if you have a roof rack. Speaking as someone who's had roof racks on my vehicles...
  16. Roof Racks (Canada)

    Hey @JACKSMYDOG - Do you remove your rack in the winter? Since it's mounted with rivNuts, you could probably just remove the rack and put the bolts back in? Or use the cut-out pieces of gutter-trim as spacers? What do you do in the winter?
  17. Roof Racks (Canada)

    So far, I've found 4 options, and have eliminated two of them due to them being installed with pop Rivets. I'm surprised they would design something like a rack on a moving vehicle that was installed with pop rivets. I found this video that describes some real horror stories that affirmed my...
  18. Roof Racks (Canada)

    I just spent too much time on the Yakima site searching for something they offer that was bolted to my roof. I couldn't find anything at all for a 2020 Ranger SuperCrew. I don't actually need a platform as you mentioned (I really just need crossbars) but I do not want a clamp on system. If you...
  19. Roof Racks (Canada)

    I often check out the Kenny uPull website. You can set it up with alerts to notify you when a particular year/model comes in. I've scavenged lots of good OEM parts off of accidented cars for very low cost.
  20. Roof Racks (Canada)

    Got it, thanks Yeah, I can't believe the prices they are charging for this stuff. I'm seriously considering fabricating something myself. I had another ranger years ago, and I made a cap out of wood. It was supposed to be 'temporary' but it was made exactly for my needs, and it worked so well...
