I went with the Fox 2.0 coils/shocks up front and Bilstein 5100s in the rear. No regrets, got rid of all the annoying bouncy ride. Caveat I did it at the same time with tires and wheels. Part of my improvement came from the extra mass and sidewall from the BFG 285/70s. I am sure the front and...
Ok finally got the wheels, tires, bumper and lift on. HYG.
Bumper: Ford Racing - painted to match trim
Wheels: Rosh Racing
Tires: BFG KO3 285/70R17s
Susp: Fox 2.0 and Bilstien 5100s
Stance is what I wanted, ride is much better improved. Winch is pending time to install. Living dangerously...
After many rabbit holes, these are now my favorite. Should look great with the new Ford Racing/Warn bumper and 2.5 Fox parts sitting in the shop.
Especially as they are NOT black and no ridiculous offset. I know I am resurrecting an old thread but curious if the OP got the vibe issue fixed?
Replaced the recommended/commonly relpaced valve, drives like new again. It got so bad that the truck was almost undrivable when it was cold. It completely solved the subject problem. Thank you to all those who contributed.
Here is my PSA:
It took longer to over think this, and read the posts...
I did find an older discussion here: https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/paint-for-black-front-bumper.13256/
So I guess I am looking at J7 code. I am getting ready to install my new ARB front bumper - already did the hours of prep and coated with what I thought was close enough to match but...
Ok called the dealer = no help. What is the color code for the what seems to be 'magnetic metalic'? on the bumpers and wheels? The dealer used the vin for my Hot Pepper red and cannot tell me what the color code is. Anyone know what the code is so I can order from duplicolor or other source?
Brett - thanks for being pro-active on this one. Just had a minor 'incident' that is driving the requirement for a new bumper. Good to hear the ACC is not a factor.
That is what I was thinking. Not enough bandwidth to dig into that right now. Good thing is I'm hardly driving it now so less opportunity to irritate me.
Great point about the rating vs. number of plies.
Traditionally a E rated tire would provide some level of stability but this really depends on the tire load rating and construction. Unfortunately a number of plies does not equate to a better performing tire for towing across different brands...
OP - I have been back and forth with 3 local dealers on this. 3 different answers. One suggested that if you do not use automatic, it will stay on recirc which is incorrect. All of them cite humidity sensors which also does not make sense when it is not humid. Like you, I do not want or need the...
Perfect! Exact same wheels I plan on running, just waiting till some more free cash-flow. I like the tire/size choice. I see your in NV so asking about the grip/braking in the rain with those tires would be silly. Zero experience with Wild Peaks.
Looks Great!
Interesting about the contingency if the truck came with a tow package.
This would be be a good one to ask the rep at the upcoming auto show circuit. Probably won’t get a good answer but I wonder if the reps are armed with anything to tell a potential customer why they can’t tow something...
Agreed. It should dim equally with the display setting. It know when the lights are on so... it should follow.
Same frustrating issue with CarPlay apps such as Waze.
I wonder if an accessory hitch light would also trip the trailer connection.
Does anyone know if the 4 pin will deactivate s/s or the 7 pin, or both?
Sure, the console button works but I would rather not take a test every time I get in this truck.
Between the Sync notifications and this...
