  1. Bumper Replacement - ARB/Ford Performance

    Not sure what is involved, but guessing they either desensitize or make more sensitive to collision.
  2. Bumper Replacement - ARB/Ford Performance

    I have both parking sensors and the forward facing radar so it's a no-go from two perspectives. I'd also want some auxiliary lighting in front of the bumper and the warning seems to indicate that is also a no-go. There are some good aftermarket options though that support those features so I'd...
  3. Bumper Replacement - ARB/Ford Performance

    Wow, the last time I looked at this one I didn't notice the requirements for having the airbag system recalibrated and some of the other limitations listed.
  4. Rear Differential “wet” look

    That Nissan 30k interval would have saved a lot of people some trouble with their CVT transmissions.
  5. Leafs

    I will say that a stock Tremor with 35psi cold tire inflation rides about the same as a new TRD Off Road 4Runner with 40 psi in the tires in my experience. Tire inflation has a huge impact on ride quality along with shock absorbers and leaf pack design. It shocked me quite honestly, but I...
  6. Traded the Ranger :-(

    Cool Maverick!! Buddy of mine got a Tremor version and totally loves it. On the transmission front, I drove a Toyota 4Runner today with the thought of trading. I didn't trade, but if I could swap that 5speed automatic transmission from the 4runner into the Ranger, it would be the ultimate...
  7. Biggest tires, no lift?

    From what I've read, a 285/70/17 on oem Tremor wheels will fit with no lift, but it does require the high clearance crash bars. This person illustrated it in a video.
  8. Low RPM engine Lug rabbit hole

    For those that have the tools to do so, datalog rpm, load, throttle position, spark, selected gear and torque converter lockup and you will see what is going on at the time you experience the lugging feeling. Not debating the definition of lugging here, but those data points will give you an...
  9. What happened to customer care and quality service?

    I never bite on the free oil changes because in my experience, the wait time and subsequent second visit to fix what was done incorrectly on the free visit costs me more travel and wait time than just buying the oil and filter and doing it myself. That experience applies equally to Ford, GM and...
  10. Whoosh!

    Check your charge pipe connections.
  11. Solid Drive Shaft for Tremor Having People

    Looks beefy! Looks like the area next to splines is machined to accept a rubber dust bellows. Do they have one they recommend?
  12. 23 Gladiator

    I considered one and did a test drive of a Rubicon version. It rode surprisingly well on the highway and was on par in general with the Ranger Tremor. Both have Fox shocks and a relatively long wheelbase which likely contributed to that similarity. The only thing that really turned me off...
  13. Livernois Tuners

    Yes. Would doubt they would even look unless you popped an engine. That is when they would likely be required by Ford to look. You see, auto service centers are run like doctors offices these days for warranty. The service manager/mechanic writes up the diagnosis and submits to Ford for...
  14. Rust at end of bed liner. Truck only has been registered for 1.5 years

    Looks normal for a year and a half in the Massachusetts area. I would have that drop in liner removed and a spray in liner put in its place. They will prep the area as part of install. The drop in liners wiggle around constantly and rub through the paitn to the metal, then it does take a week...
  15. HVAC 'clicking' normal or not?

    Supposedly, the heater box issue was addressed somewhere mid 2020. I lean towards just the actuator. The problem I've seem with them in other vehicles is that the bcm runs a full sweep self check on them every time you start the vehicle. Plastic gears can only take so many hard limit tests...
  16. Ford Performance vs. Roush tunes/exhaust

    I can't find any info on a Roush tune, but Ford Performance offers one. Not sure they have Carb approval yet for the 22-23 Rangers if that even matters where you are. There are a few options and I'm sure others will chime in with recommendations soon. The exhaust kits are generally produced...
  17. ?? for XLT Tremor owners

    Got a link for those sheepskin inserts?? Looks like they would be easy to install in a few minutes.
  18. Oil paranoia question 🤣

    Mine dilutes down a bit and ends up having 2-5% fuel in oil per Blackstone. 5w30 mobil tests at 5w20 at 5k mile intervals. I'm going to start running the 5w40 European blend now that they upped the api spec to SP. This is my second ecoboost, first was a 2013 f150 gen1 3.5. It had severe fuel...
  19. 2022 transmission needs repaired - says dealer

    I can say that mine works wonderfully in tow mode and sport. It is the regular default drive mode that shows random issues for me. I would tend to think that is software driven.
  20. Oil paranoia question 🤣

    Noticed almost all oil manufacturers have upped their api spec to either SN Plus or SP which should cover everything needed for my purposes.
