Totally understand. I’ve seen threads on the bronco hardtops and people waiting for over a year after payment. It’s not honest business and that really is unfortunate in that situation.
I haven’t had any issues with them as many people have bought the fenders and bedsides in success. I used...
Today I started the bedsides and was able to get everything I wanted today done. Thanks to @Superdannyboy thread on this… it helped a lot.
current look.l for now. This is not bolted in yet. Will get to cutting and filling for a perfect fitment on Monday.
Also added genright side markers to the...
Hey thank you! It’s lots of fun to work on the truck and see things come to life. I can’t wait to get it all done and then paint matched to factory. Then eventually wrap it
Got the front valence to fit semi correctly. I’m going to do some sanding to get it flush but it’s getting better. Definitely the most difficult part about doing the front end. Well also I was have issues with the driver side door scrapping when closing but did a lot of sanding to get it right...
update photos trying to fit this valence on. I'm going to have to get creative in trying to make it fit but it just seems too long on one side for the other to fit correctly. I've read others bolting it the fenders but that doesnt seem to do the trick. Going to have to do alot of sanding to make...
Let me tell you the fitment on the driver side took lots of sanding and fidgeting to get it right. Got both the right and left fenders on and bolted, but for the life of me the valence doesn't even come close to fitting. I called it a night and will work on the valence tomorrow.
Ive been building my Ranger from scotch for the last year. Everything I've done myself so it's been rewarding. Except when my turbo blew up and somehow got warranty on it even though I have a downpipe, 3' exhaust, BOV, CVfab intercooler, charge pipes, CAI, etc.
So just to tell you I've followed...
Has anyone added a fuel neck extension for aftermarket bedsides primarily the AVD bedsides? I cant seem to find one online or one for wider bedsides. I contacted APG but they just refer me to their APG prorunner kit which I dont need the whole kit lol. I'm just looking the extension as I am...
I do have a BOV for the last 8 months. The problem with trying to diagnose the issue is it literally could be anything. The best I can do is ask when I go pick up my truck what could have been the problem. I know I did ask if anybody else had an issue initially because of the black smoke. I also...
Hey appreciate the insight. Im not sure exactly what the cause of failure was. They are completely pulling everything apart and cleaning out everything from the intercooler, throttle, and piping. I can ask when I pick up my truck either today or Monday to see the exact cause. Since Ford is doing...
No, only that the turbo seal was bad. They did showed me a video of the turbine blades completely destroyed and the cold side of the charge pipe was leaking oil.
Thanks for the info. I was just referencing what the tech told me. I do have a question for ya. Will adding a catch can help with oil entering the turbo? I know people praise catch cans and then some say it doesnt do anything helpful. Im not entirely sure with all the research Ive done, but...
If I had to pay out of pocket I would have. I agree with you about the cost, I just got lucky because of the relationship my brother has with the ford shop.
Let's hope it last for sometime. The fault was the seals on the turbo. I thought about upgrading the turbo but to be honest I dont need or want more horsepower than the truck is already producing.
Not to mention all the other modifications that goes into upgrading a turbo. I'm building my truck...
Well, I got lucky because my brother knows the head guy in the ford shop. They actually got me covered through warranty. My brother told me that the tech said that there is NO WAY on any other circumstance that I would be covered through all the modifications I have. Now I owe him a drink at the...
Well just got a call from Ford. The turbo is destroyed from oil leaking into it. Apparently the seals are bad so thats how oil seeped through. My intercooler has oil in it and the cold side charge pipe is leaking oil onto my ADD bumper. I didnt see the leak since the skid plate covers the area...
