Looks like another hurdle… I think the only rails Kuat guaranteed former with was the retrax ones. Those setups were more than I wanted to spend. I planed on an x15 lopro cover with trucedo TS rail mounts. The T-nuts and bolts from Kuat are too thick and too tall to fit the channel. The heads...

I mentioned previously that rei miss labeled so these are actually shot 3” longer than the true ranger specific setup . Didn’t bother me enough to do anything about it, but may just cut to correct length.

Gonna go poke at it today. Picked up rail risers and a Molle panel for the cab side. The cross bars at full height were a touch too low to have a kayak on just the cross bars. The risers will fix that and and flexibility for whatever else might overhang the cab. Also will add a tonneau cover if...

Snagged 5 Bronco Outer Banks 18” wheels and tires for $200 for my ‘23 Ranger. 25k on 4 tires and one new. Just want the wheels for use as with snow tires for next year. Can’t beat that price

My truck WAS next to my wife’s car when I parked. With the e brake on. 2 or 3 tires were on bare pavement. The stock Hankook dynapro ATMon my ‘23 aren’t inspiring confidence. Never had that problem with the kumhos on my wife’s pilot. This is not the first time truck slid.

I love it, but keep in mind the “correct” length version of this is apparently still not out. What I have is around 3” longer than what Kuat designates. I wouldn’t say it looks, bad. But after seeing this setup you kind of get why the went shorter. Will try to get picks in the next day or so. I...

so while getting my front lift/level springs installed we found this hanging from a bolt for the front air dam close to the skid plate. 1/4”… top bad. I was hoping to gain back one of the world’s many missing 10mm sockets.

Yeah, that was my take. Just hood until maybe November or so when the Ranger specific one is good to go.

KUAT is sending the shorter side rails when available (a few months). They said to tell free to cut the longer rails down. The internal threading must extend the length of the side rails if that's the case. I'd lose it in the notch for the t slot nut inserts on the cut end though. The rack is...

Haven’t heard back from Kuat so probably going the return route. I don’t completely hate the fit, but knowing it’s not as intended is going to get me. It legit was just poorly labeled by REI online. Hate to return, but it is what it is.

Price showed in AUD. Convert to ‘Merica bux and it’s like $280.

People sell bronco wheels as take offs with basically new tires and tpms sensors for like $800 for a set of 4. Grab those and beat on them. Replace the tires with dedicated snows after. Best of both worlds.

For the price that's a shame. The mark up on those things is bigger than the lift.

Well how much lift do the Rocky Ridge Rangers get? You can get them from the dealership lifted quite a bit.

The directions say 1” away from the cab. I called REI so they will adjust their product page. I called Kuat and need to standby to see how they will handle it. REI is a 1yr return. The 75mm shorter for the real Ranger version (A3) will be roughly 3” shorter. As is the A1 forested go past the...

Update - so I called Kuat. It is supposed to be the A3, but they are not available yet. The difference from the is 75mm shorter than the A1. Fit guide is getting updated. They are going to follow up with me. Sounds like potentially swapping out the bar 4 side bars.

FWIW, I used w trailer to check fit for the Ranger. Then I ordered it through REI since I’ll use the member rewards for more accessories. This way you can at least verify again either way. So on second look… the Kuat site lets you select Ranger short bed and shows the A3 as the correct fit...

So as far as budget t-slot accessories… You can get the t-slot nuts really easily for cheep. Just check what thread they are. M4 or M6 probably. Then you can bolt whatever you want on there. DIY shouldn’t be too tough. Or just DIY to the level of adapting things you may already have.

The Yakima setup is nice. This has extra side rails. The top and bottom sides have t-slot rails. So the Yakima you have to factor that in as well. I’m at least going to grab the side rail adapters for the Kuat Pivot SR and eventually slap some bike tray on it. I’ll also get the brackets to raise...

A1… double-check that. They show a midsize short and long then a full size short and long. The A1 is def mid short
