Look's great!! Thanks for taking the time to share! A lot of us want to do these mods or similar mods (at some point) and it's nice to get a good look before dishing out the cash. :clap::like:
Has anyone done the mod to move the steps out? I am kind of torn between the RB20 and the DSS. I need protection as the side of my truck is chipping like it was painted with watercolor paint. Looking at pics I think I like the look of the DSS more as it kind of incorporates a nerfbar off road...
Yeah I'm hoping I can get it covered at least once. We were considering a new Escape, but this has made me a bit gun shy. I baby my vehicles, very meticulous detailing them and this winter hasn't even been bad (as far as roads being treated) and this happened. I had an F-150 prior and aside from...
8 months/ 10,000 miles. Driver side. Splash guards were installed in first 2 weeks. Sadly, some 3m clear film would have prevented it (notice how it did not chip where the factory installed stuff was. I'll have to add some raptor like running boards after I get it sprayed. Sad for this to happen...
I have the exact same thing, jerky/hunting when freezing cold. Just noticed it the other day. Only when it's near or below freezing and under very light throttle. Almost like it's confused on whether to shift or not shift or it's a missfire. Has been silky smooth up until this issue and was pure...
Your dealer won't repaint it? No that it will solve the problem, but they should repaint it, or sub it out to be repainted. I really can't do anything until the weather breaks, so I'm looking at a few months. Hoping dealer will cover it, then I'm going to get creative on some sort of plastic...
Yeah, when the weather breaks, I'll likely try it to see if I can pin point it. If I can't, I'm going to try a competent dealer. Problem is, they are over an hour away......:frown:
Oxford White here. Lower bed front edges are looking like they were sandblasted. I figured this would happen eventually. Thought it would take longer than 9,000 miles. At least that's when I noticed it, could have been much sooner. Winters are tough on them, but anyone arguing that the paint...
I too have a vibration. Mine is pretty faint, usually under light load between 50-60 mph (where I spend 95% of my time, so very annoying) dealer said "yep, we definitely feel it". They balanced the tires and said problem solved. Well, it didn't change one bit. If I were betting, mine is likely...
That's a tough call. You can get FX4 on the XL truck as well as the XLT and the locker is available on the STX also, but trail control, hill descent control and terrain management are all exclusive to the FX4 if that matters to you it should be considered. My biggest hangup on the XL is the...
I am towing a Sportsmen 271 BHLE, it is listed as 31'3" @ 5,290 dry, so maybe 5,800lbs loaded, propane, bikes etc ( I don't fill my water until I get there). I have a Redarc brake controller and I use the E2 weight distribution with friction sway control. Tows like a champ. I am honestly blown...
The seat bottom should be a 60/40 design as a bare minimum. Some sort of bed cover is a must for most also. I had a 2002 Sport Trac and the rear bottom was pretty high off the floor and the seat backs folded flat via a hand lever. I believe they were 60/40 seat backs. Memory doesn't recall the...
There should be a plug type dipstick on the side of the transmission where the dipstick would go. Your truck is under warranty, I would not be messing with it, set up a service appointment to leave it on a cold night. What your experiencing is not normal. Mine is silky smooth. Better than I...
The 3rd party warranties are basically an insurance contract. If you are 110% happy and confident with your dealer solving any issues that happen after the factory warranty expires, then you'd probably be okay. But do not bank on a different dealer (if you're out of town when a problem happens...
I installed the redarc in mine. I have a 30ft travel trailer and I wasn't waiting on Ford to finish contemplating their own version. I am not concerned about my AEB with my TT in tow as it would likely be too late anyhow. I mounted mine right by the 4x4 knob for a clean factory look. It works...
I have owned both, prefer the between the rails low profile clean look of the roll up. Allows for complete use of the bed also. I installed a Gator on mine. Bars are sewn in, has a latch release and it's easily adjustable for tightness in different seasons. The only drawback, is the Ranger bed...
Would it not then read: * RANGER ///////// [][][][][]* instead of *RANGER [][][][][] ///////* ?? The ////// and the "black" would be flopped too. It still looks just as good.
