I’m not saying rangers are bad, I’m saying mine, that I paid 42000 cash for, was not worth it. I have owned other fords, I have a Ford tattoo from a crazy college trip to Vegas, I just wasn’t happy and didn’t trust it. I have 3 Toyota’s now from 08, 15, and 21 and not a speck of rust. I live in...
I suppose that depends on your view of TURDs. Within 50k my ranger had engine problems and the interior was showing wear, I have a 2008 Sequoia with 175,000 miles and everything works the way it should. There is a reason Toyota holds value and Ford sinks like a rock.
Well after years of smelling fuel in my garage at the end of the day and oil dilution I finally sold the truck. I paid cash for the truck and the value was tanking. At 50,000 miles It started to sound more and more like a diesel on startup. I do have ARB skid plates and a catted SPD stainless...
For sale. Expanding family means expanding camping setup. Craigslist post should explain most. Ask questions. Willing to negotiate if the transaction is smooth. Title in hand.
45,000 OBO Pueblo, CO but can deliver/meet within reason...
For what it's worth i've had roughly 0.5qts of extra oil come out for every oil change (5,000 mile interval) since 2019. Yes I measure it. I just cracked 50,000 miles. I have the Mishimoto catch can and I empty it weekly when it's about 1/2 full of mostly fuel. I live at 6500 ft and do a 50/50...
At least at elevation the engines do t last. Local dealer has 2 with bad motors in right now and said they’ve had a few others. Tons of fuel in the oil from piston rings and blow by and the lower viscosity is killing main bearings. I’ve started changing the oil at 3000 miles and I get about...
The camper? Fine. With the tent up? Ya it’s noisy but it’s built well. No water ingress and the fabric is thick so very little wind got through. The struts are sturdy and I had no movement of fear it would close on me. However with 10 inches of snow load on our last trip I have been pondering an...
Well after a long winter of having covid, recovering, getting the vaccine, and then getting shingles, I had some time to make needed Improvements.
Added and ARB compressor, some MOLLE plate, and some storage hooks for coffee gear. Can’t wait for EJS2021.
Did some Moab and Sedona camping over the holiday. Took the rig up Fins N Things and Hells Revenge. Rock Solid.
Looking at switching over to a bumper tire carrier over the door. I'd like to get weight off the door, and add location for spare fuel...
Oh wow. Yeah mine has been good. I just spent 4 days in Sedona running my fridge at 1C constant, 12v oven for 4 hours daily, and heater blower all night. No issues. The 100AH battery got down to 40% each night and charged back up to 100% during the day of driving around.
On many occasions I have...
I just got this code P0557 for brake booster pressure sensor. I’m at 35000 miles. I guess I’ll bring it in. I also had no vacuum assisted brakes until I pumped them a few times. Kind of annoying. Really hate going to the dealership.
I had the shudder when WOT on stock leaf springs, but I knew how to fix it, I was just lazy. After getting around doing the OME 1.7in lift springs the shudder is completely gone. The lift kit removed pinion angle. My pinion is now parallel to the output on the transfer case, or ever so slightly...
My price into everything is around 15k now.
bo it’s pretty permanent. Apart from weighting a lot. There are many bolt in locations. It uses the factory tailgate bolt holes and hold down brackets into factory threaded holes in the bed too. I would imagine in a roll over this thing would save the...
I installed the OME 1.7in leaf spring kit from Stage3 a few days ago. I had been running my air bags on stock leaf springs, yes the single leaf with one overload fml, running the air bags around 55 psi. The ride wasn’t amazing. I bought a new GX460 for the wife and after riding in that off road...
GP Factor install kit for the Dickinson heater arrived. From start to finish wiring it took me the better part of 6 hours. Getting the right fitting and hose length was a bit of a pain. I think it's a very clean install and the heater puts out some heat! Props to Rin from OK4WD for making this...
I’ll see if I can pop it up for some pics, but I doubt I’ll have time. I will be THAT guy and say the ok4wd.com has pretty good pics of it. Any AluCab canopy camper is the same no matter what it’s on. Many YouTube videos of them on Tacoma’s.
