I keep a ranger roll, wool blanket, and rifle back there. Under the seat on passenger side I have jumper cables, air compressor, and a small bag of tools. Driver side under seat compartment is where the ammo and mags go. Fixed blade knife is attached to my GMRS radio mount under the steering...
Possibilities are endless with racks… Whether or not they’ll work with your bed cover is a different issue. I had to modify mine slightly to make it fit. I cut the ears off that wrap into the bed and bolted it down straight from the top. My cover sits inside the bed rails so it was easy to make...
Both. My wife can hear it too when she’s riding with me so I know it’s not just me being paranoid. Seems to happen more when I hit speed bumps or when I’m backing up and turn the wheel. Even sitting still, when I turn the wheel I can hear and feel a popping/knocking sound. It doesn’t happen when...
That’s way too obvious! I hide my drugs in the tailgate and spare tire. I can fit like 60 lbs of fentanyl in there!!! I mean baby power… I have sensitive skin officer, gotta stay stocked up on that powdery relief ?
Have the same issue with mine… Been doing it for like 2 years and still can’t find the issue. I’ve taken it to multiple shops and the entire front end has been taken apart 3 times. Nobody can find where the noise is coming from. At this point, I’ve had multiple mechanics tell me that everything...
Any updates on storage systems for this area? Still can’t find anything online. Anyone else had luck? I know this post is older, maybe between then and now someone has stumbled across something?
Got it to a shop that’s going to do the repairs and said they would handle everything with my insurance on their end. Just got a call that their estimate was approved and they’re starting work today. Should be done in a week or so.
Is that something Ford will cover under warranty or will they wait until there’s actually noticeable problems before they do anything? I’m pretty sure my truck has a 60k mile warranty. I’m at 58 or 59 right now. If I’m going to do anything, it needs to be immediately.
My other issue is that...
Just confirmed my truck has a 3.5” lift with 255/80/17s on 25 offset wheels, wife’s are the 12 offset. With my truck, I did have to remove the crash bars or my tires would rub at full lock.
Just from googling stuff, it says it should work but you may experience some slight rubbing at full lock...
You should be fine. My wife’s truck has the same setup with slightly different size tires. I put 265/70s on hers, no rubbing. 255/75s are .4” skinner and .5” taller sidewall. I think you’ll be fine.
Her wheels are either 12 or 25MM offset, I don’t remember which ones I put on her truck and...
Maybe I’ve just gotten lucky? My 2021 ranger has just under 60k miles and I haven’t noticed any shifting issues. I don’t tow very often and when I do, it’s a small aluminum boat that hardly weighs anything. Every now and then I’ll tow my utility trailer on a dump run into town but that’s it...
They recommended that shop because they’re partnered with them. I can choose any shop I want but they won’t warranty the repairs if the shop I pick isn’t in their network of partners.
I’m going to talk with the adjuster today and see what’s going on. What I’m worried about is taking the 15,000...
It is a rough country lift kit but it’s strut spacers and upper control arms. It’s the lift kit that uses stock struts, so not much has been modified at all as far as suspension. I could literally have that lift kit removed and put back to stock in 45 minutes.
I told him that and asked if they...
Got a call from the shop today. They said since the truck is lifted and modified, they won’t touch it. Haven’t talked to my insurance adjuster yet, but the mechanic said he already talked with them before calling me. Sounds like AAA is going to offer to pay me 15,000 cash (estimated repair cost)...
I have something very similar on my truck. No issues with lights hitting the windshield but that really depends on what size lights you go with. Had that issue with my last truck so I downsized this time around.
Getting the wires through the firewall is kind of a pain but doable. Getting the...
The first shop my insurance sent it to couldn’t do the work so they moved it to another one. I went over there on Friday to sign paperwork and do a walk around with the mechanic. He doesn’t think it’s totaled but they won’t know for sure until they start digging into it and see what else might...
Not hunting but we were fishing… Got skunked at the lake but brought a deer home. Kind of ironic lol
Truck is fine, it was a smaller deer and he hit the grille guard so no damage at all. Bit of fur stuck to the light bar but that’s it.
Does hitting a deer count? Lol my wife was driving back from the lake yesterday when Bambi decided to jump in front of the truck. He’s in the freezer now ?
So far the total damage is radiator and intercooler, front frame section, and passenger side strut assembly. They didn’t see anything obviously wrong with the transmission or differential but they won’t know for sure until they make the other repairs and test drive it. No oil is leaking out of...
