  1. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    Mounted on the hood with a lip mount. Punched through the rubber boot behind the glovebox to route the cable. I don’t have a good picture. Hopefully this one helps.
  2. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    Today was your first oil change on a 2019? I would change it at least once a year regardless of mileage.
  3. Bed rail / caps removal ?

    You can pry it off, but it’s not just a smooth rail underneath. Most covers will go on the plastic and are designed to fit that way.
  4. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    Finished the ham radio install.
  5. Ford Performance Tune

    Those adjustments have always been in the ProCal 4 for the Ford Ranger.
  6. 2019 vs 2021 Ranger cost cutting moves for Ford

    I think if it was just the tie-down deletion, the discussion would have tapered off long ago. The problem is that as this platform is maturing the list of deleted or substituted parts/options/features keep increasing. It doesn't seem that anything is being added or improved within a trim-line...
  7. Ford Performance Tune

    The desktop app may have updated the driver for the ProCal 4 unit, but didn't prompt you for a reboot. Also, I remember mine triggering a .NET update after I installed the desktop app update. You might need to check for a .NET update or reboot so that .NET finishes installing. Windows :explode:
  8. Ford Performance tune

    The exhaust is for the sound, if you like that kind of sound from a 2.3 liter engine that has the exhaust flow smoothed out by the turbo. The cold air intake might improve performance in certain circumstances when used with a tune, but install a K&N filter into the existing, Ford Designed, air...
  9. Ford Performance Tune - Update

    I did my update a while back and I got a similar error. I had not used that particular laptop for awhile, so I ran some Windows updates, then updated to the newest version of the software (not the newest version of the tune). It installed an additional .NET update, then everything worked as...
  10. 2019 vs 2021 Ranger cost cutting moves for Ford

    Lariat had a plastic cover over the engine.
  11. 2019 vs 2021 Ranger cost cutting moves for Ford

    ...and they don’t give you an engine cover anymore on the Lariat.
  12. I Traded My Ranger Today - So Long, and Thank You

    The Ridgeline seems to be the more practical vehicle for me, but when I was a young man, I desired a compact 4x4 pickup, so when I got old, I decided that the Ranger fit that desire best and I got it. So the Ranger is my mid-life crisis car! ?
  13. 2019 vs 2021 Ranger cost cutting moves for Ford

    How many tie downs in the bed? 2019 had 6 and 2020+ have 4 included. What steering knuckles do you have? Sometime in 2020 they changed from aluminum to iron. Oh and they removed the EcoBoost badging.
  14. Maxxis tires?

    Hankook tires on Ranger FX4 package: LT265/65R17, 31.0" diameter, 10.6" width, -C range load, 44 lbs, 675 rev/mile --265/60R18, 30.5" diameter, 10.6" width, SL range load, 35 lbs, 681 rev/mile If this is right, then the tires on the 17" rims are 3-peak snow rated and the tires on the 18" rims...
  15. Maxxis tires?

    3-peak is something I couldn’t figure out on the Maxxis tire. Is the tire, in the size you mentioned at the top, 3-peak snow rated?
  16. Maxxis tires?

    I don't understand it 100% but sidewall rating, the letters, indicate the number of sidewall plys in the the tire (or an equivalent). The load index number is a numerical rating based on its load carrying capability at the fully rated pressure. So I guess that my tire's C rating is when...
  17. Maxxis tires?

    I still have the stock 265/65R17 Hankook tires on my Ranger. I will be moving up to a 265/70R17 in the future. I checked out the same Hankook tire in that size and they are SL with a 4-ply sidewall, which I thought I might be happy with because of the lighter weight and more compliant ride, but...
  18. Maxxis tires?

    I think the tires would be fine. Just the stock tires are LT C rated (equivalent to 6-ply sidewall) and the Maxxis is not LT and has 4-ply sidewall. This is why your getting a tire with wider tread and greater overall surface area, but the weight is not increasing.
  19. Maxxis tires?

    These are my stock Hankooks.
  20. Maxxis tires?

    They are passenger car and not light truck, like your FX4 is. This means they will not have the same load handing ability as your stock tire. Maybe this is okay if you don't tow or max-out the payload.
