I live in Saskatchewan, and while winter tires are amazing and would be a huge improvement, I rarely use 4x4, I have fallen Wildpeak all terrain tires.

Any pictures?

Living up in Canada, most manufacture’s warranties mean nothing anyways, as you typically end up paying shipping both ways.

I’d recommend putting the spacer back in, they’re there to make sure the sumo spring sits flat. The frame as small protrusions that prevent the large metal washer from sitting flat. i actually ended up cutting the first rib of the sumo spring off. This allows the leaf spring some more movement...

I’d get the lightest rates versions available

After towing my 3500lbs camper a few hours on the highway with the SumoSprings, I can say I’m really happy with them. I have always used a WD hitch when towing, but the SumoSprings made a huge difference, a lot of the floating sensation is gone, along with the wiggle from the rear. The FX4...

I decided to be the test mule for this, as I could find any real world experience with these. I ordered the blue Sumo springs, the lightest ones, I just installed them on my FX4 that has a bed cap on it. You’re basically on the sumo spring all the time, and the factory shocks have a hard time...

Does anyone know if the carrier bearing is available separately? If it’s cost effective, it might be worth reinforcing it with 3M Window Weld to stiffen it up, until/if an aftermarket option is available. have done this many times on racecars for motor/transmission mounts.

I regularity tow a lot with my ranger. I currently have a box cap on it that’s adds weight too. I’ve been looking into Sumo Springs and Timbrens as a way to help the ride when loaded up, has anyone had direct experience with them on their ranger? My other vehicles have all had air bags, and I’m...

How are you liking the MBRP exhaust? Have you had the opportunity to do any towing with it? The price point of it is really appealing, but I do enough towing that the noise increase at highway speeds is my major concern.

When hitting 220F, fan was on, this was full throttle,20lbs I’d boost, up a 5% grade, doing 110KPH, ambient temps were also 95F ish. Like I said, as soon as you let off to less than full throttle, temps drop quickly. I guess my original post was a little bit misleading in regards to how much...

One thing to note, is the temp gauge is horribly inaccurate. My typical water temps are 197-202F while driving and even while towing. Up any sort of grade, as soon as the boost builds and you’re going full throttle, it doesn’t take much to see 230F. I typically let off and slow down as soon as...

Would love to know what it sounds like in cab while pulling a trailer. That was the main complaint about my 5.0 f150 with the manga flow, 3000rpm for hours at highway speeds was taxing on the ears

ROW rangers have an entirely different rear end, most notably with rear drums, and a multi spring leaf pack. The dana m220 was likely chosen for its efficiency over the ageing 8.8 design. The fact that the Dana design is shared with other light duty truck(Jeep, GM twins) likely keeps costs low...

I believe the differential housing itself has the drain plug threaded into it

After looking at the price of used sets, you’d be better off getting a set of new remote resi king or fox remote resi shocks. Designed for the ranger, and cheaper.

Depends on what kind of ball mount you’re using. The only way you’ll know what you need, is to measure. I used a 6” drop with a WD hitch set up, and realistically, I should run an 8” drop to get everything set up properly

Same capacity as stock. It’s actually a rebranded Dana Spicer cover.

Because they didn’t. It doesn’t apply to the 2.3 EcoBoost

I wonder if it’s rated for towing at maximum load ratings?
