Full disclosure - I have wheeled my 4x4 ranger in the dirt. At some point I'm sure I achieved full articulation or compression. I was getting new tires on the Ranger the other day and while I was watching them pull the wheels off at Discount Tire I noticed two things: 1. Our rear leaf-springs...

I'm not OCD or clean freak by any means but this AZ Dirt we have sticks really well to the wheel-wells. Even when it's dry, it sticks as dust that doesn't wash off. I actually kinda like it because it sets my truck off from the Mall Crawler Crowd - authentic dirt and all. But on my security...

I have noticed my auto stop not stopping before but usually after a long period of not driving it and eventually it came back. Now this weekend, I have drove the Shizz out of it - still didn't auto stop. Made sure AC/Heat was off. Made sure seat heaters were off. Made sure there was nothing...

As I get older I see the beauty in a Tear Drop Trailer or other small camping outfit. Does anyone here have a set up you'd like to share and discuss and what works well / not so well? I'll be using this in primitive and dispersed sites. No facilities. No shore power. No water. Off Grid and...

FREE for LOCAL PICK UP ONLY ONE Luyed LED Light Bulb 1550 Lumens. These are sold on Amazon in packs of two. I did the upgrade to my cargo and CHMSL light - which requires three light bulbs. Means I have #4 left over. If you are looking to do the same and live near Anthem Arizona, this bulb...

New to the "gram" as it were and I've started following some guys that post up ranger pics. Some of them are probably members here. Was wondering (didn't see it in search) if we had a place for people to link up their Ranger Related Instagram accounts to follow. I'm on as GTGallop but not...

I had a half quart laying around and figured I'd add it to the engine tonight. Engine was still running and I twisted off the cap (not hard at all) and when the threads were in the off position, pressure nearly popped it out of my hand because I wasn't expecting pressure. I held my hand over...

I remember in the old days, when you would take a truck off road you could look in the rear view mirrors and see the difference between the bed and cab as the frame twisted back and forth. Also I do understand tha the frame is a component of your suspension and that trucks were designed to do...

Guessing I'm near or going to be near the end of the lifespan of the OEM battery soon. Most batteries last about 2 years in Arizona and then without indication - POOF - they are dead. Given my Auto Start / Stop I don't want a dead or dying battery to leave me on the side of the road. So I'll...

My wife drives a 2017 Ford Mustang with the same (or very similar) 4cyl EcoBoost engine we get. Hers is a Performance Package though so on her dashboard she can cycle through some screens that have additional gauges like: Boost Pressure / Vac Cylinder head Temp Air/Fuel Ratio Engine Oil Temp...

So my truck parks on the side of our house. Right next to my neighbors bedroom window. I needed to get up and go at 5:00 this morning and he's retired - can sleep as long as he wants so I try to stay quiet. This morning my tires were between 24 and 26 PSI all the way around. Likely the...

Street racing is bad, dangerous, and ILLEGAL. Don't ever even think about it. But if you do.... ;-) Back in the early 2000's I had a Nissan Titan and frequented the "Titan Talk" forum. Guys there with 4x4 would street race them in 4WD HI. They ate up all sorts of cars. Apparently the way...

Has anyone deleted the rear middle seat-belt? Is it even legal? I'm pretty sure I'll never use it and I'd like to ditch it for just a scoche more storage behind the seat. and remove the headrest. Do I need to do something with the seatbelt sensor? Are there plugs / caps for the holes in the...

Hey Ranger Guys and Gals, I'm looking at a box for the back to help with storage and organization. I see a lot of boxes I like on web sited but they are always pictured in the bed of a different truck. Would like to see what you have done and what you like about your bed boxes. What would...

My Third-grade Amigo and I took a trip into the Tonto National Forest today to go have lunch under a juniper tree. We were about 15 to 20 miles from the pavement down Cave Creek Road / FR24. Well into Yavapai county (AZ). Had a great lunch and then turned around to come home and noticed a...

I noticed that my wife's Mustang no longer delays the rear camera when you go into Drive. Looked for it in her menu and couldn't find it to turn it back on. No big deal. It's her car and as long as she ain't complaining, I ain't wasting time. Then I noticed that MY Ranger no longer delays...

This weekend I met a guy to sell him some equipment. If you are familiar we met at the Talking Stick Resort in North Scottsdale, Arizona. And yes it is all barricaded closed. Sometime during the transaction I nonchalantly deposited my iPhone Xr clad in a Pelican Protector Series case on top...

In my 2013 Fusion, I had no issue putting accessories on the dash with double sided tape. Either the tape that came with the accessory or a roll of the red high adhesion outdor 2x tape from Home Depot. It all stuck just fine. Now in the Ranger, I keep trying to install my Ham Radio Control...

I need access behind the driver side kick panel to run some wiring to the fuse box. This is the panel immediately to the left of your left foot when you are in the driving position. It is adjacent to the fuse panel. I assume it pops off but I'm leery of just tugging the crap out of interior...

OK - Make it a top 10 if you must. @Jacob 's comment on the Oil Filter Thread about Project Farm got me thinking... We might have a lot of overlapping interests here. I might discover some great YouTube channels that you watch if we do have overlapping interests. So what channels are on your...
