Yeah, I will check that too. I checked them about 10K ago and they had lots of life left, though. Hopefully it will be the pads...

43300 miles. I will do that tomorrow. I hear it when I turn more so than going forward; it is not the popping sounds of a bad CV joint but a rythemic rasping sound. I presume I can check it like I would do a 2wd wheel bearing, jacking the wheel up and checking for play side to side and up and...

In the last day or so, I have noticed a noise that I believe is coming from my left front wheel. It sounds like a wheel bearing is going. I did a search on this forum for threads dealing with this issue. It appears that the hub must be replaced. I did not find any YouTube videos dealing...

They were the OEM Motorcraft plugs. I replaced them with Autocraft Double Platinum. It runs like a scalded dog.

That is an interesting board. I personally have changed plugs in everything from VWs to big block V8s and have never before seen marks like that. Of course, in the day, we changed the plugs at 10 - 15K miles when we did a tune-up. I used both anti-seize and dielectric grease on the Ranger. I...

When the difference in price of 87 and 91 is 80 cents a gallon, that is about $14 a fill up, if you buy 18 gallons. 4 plugs were $23. I will stick with the 87 and change the plugs in another 40K miles.

I saw a video over the weekend about plugs changed on a 2020 Ranger with 40K miles. The plugs all showed heat damage. I picked up some new plugs yesterday and put them in this morning. They all showed the same heat damage, with #2 being the worst. The job was straightforward, unbolt the coil...

9/17 Update After getting the black screen of death repeatedly, and the soft reset not working until the third or fourth try, I contacted my local dealer. They have a tech they apparently share with other dealers to solely work on electronic gadgets. I was pleasantly surprised by this dealer...

I bought the Rough Country Soft Tonneau cover for my Ranger XLT three years ago, mostly because of price and have been very happy with it.

When I discovered a dime size hole in the driver's side tail lens and learned what Ford wanted for another (at the time there were no replacements in scrap yards near me or aftermarket lenses, I opted for the old "red duct tape, cut to fit" fix. Eventually, I am certain someone will run into me...

I have a 2019 XLT with 42K miles. I changed the battery when I first got a warning on it at about 36K miles. This past month, when I turn on the ignition, the radio comes on, which it never did before. I stream rather than listen to the radio for the most part, and each time I have to select...

I also have this issue, only in the last few weeks. My battery is less than a year old, so I am confident that is not the issue. I seldom use the radio but instead stream music through my smartphone, and every time I started the truck, it would go automatically to my phone. Lately, every time...

Former BMW 750iL owner, the one with the V-12. Not ever going to see that acceleration again. Or the incessant repair bills after the 1 year warranty was up. Having said that, if I know I have to get out in traffic, I put the trans in Sport mode and let the petal hit the mat. Just keep the...

18 months ago, I had a Hitch World outlet install the Ford OEM trailer brake controller. They had to run wires along the path of the left side door seals. I noticed after they were done that the left rear door seal was hanging and took it back. They 'fixed' it, but it never stayed in place. I...

Is this going to affect the towing capacity?

For the first time since I left the Navy, USAA gave me competitive rates on homeowners coverage that beat the company I had been with for almost 10 years. I plan on switching my auto coverage to them when the current coverage expires. But I check every time it is coming due. I will not pay for...

Complain to eBay. If they can't get the seller to respond, they will refund you from his account.

Mine got a hole in the right rear on the side a couple years ago. I choked on the replacement price, unwilling to pay the deductible, it has had a square of red duct tape until I find one at a reasonable price. I will keep an eye on this thread to see if anyone uncovers a source.

I was looking at different retailers, most say for an unlifted Ranger the Bilstein B6 4600s are what is called for. One site called for 5100s for a Ranger with a 0" to 3" inch lift. The difference in price was negligible, won't the 5100s give a harsher ride? I am looking to reduce body roll in...

W Where did you buy the Eibach shocks??
