Same here. I picked mine up 2 months ago and it's still working just fine. I've been wondering though if there might be a way to connect it to vehicle power rather than relying on a battery. Yes, that would involve a hole but I'm thinking that might be preferable to having to replace the...

Yea, my thinking is similar to yours. I navigate with my phone and I listen to my music on the radio/USB. I don't like it when the radio lowers in volume to get a navigation update as I'd rather just have both. All I want in integration is my phone to be connected to the radio for calls which...

I priced both and ended up getting an XL with the STX, Tow Package and the 101A package for the Fob with the remote, cruise control and remote adjustable mirrors. I then added a bunch of options including the sliding rear window. For me, I didn't want the Sport Appearance Package nor did I...

Adding this to the DIY section since it's probably a better place for it. I posted: https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/replaced-12v-outlet-with-usb.3306/ when I installed the first USB ports in my truck replacing the drivers 12V outlet. Today, I decided to move that one to the...

So as I was doing this mod I kept thinking to myself, "where have I seen spacers that will work for this?" I looked around the garage and kept thinking in my head that it was a piece of PVC tubing or something that was 1-1/8" ID but I didn't have anything. As I was making my spacer out of that...

Yea I had the same problem with an iPhone SE. I didn't much care as I have a 32G flash drive with a bunch of music on it that I had in my Canyon that I just moved over to the Ranger. My iPhone is connected via bluetooth for calls so I didn't much care if I can't plug it in to play music. I...

Inspired by Floyd's https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/members/floyd.678/ two posts: https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/dash-tray-removal.3178/ and https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/in-console-usb-power.3220/ I visited the mentioned EBay seller and bought this...

I've either seen two white ones here in San Jose or the same one twice. The first time was over a month ago because it was before I got mine and the second one was yesterday but I was on my bike. The one I saw yesterday was white and it just said 4x4 on the back. Didn't get a good look other...

Took the truck by Custom Alignment in Mountain View, CA today to chat with the very knowledgeable folks there. Walked in and was greeted by Alan. I told him that I came here for some advice as they had aligned my old '65 Mustang a few times a number of years ago. I was sort of expecting them...

Happened in my '65 Mustang getting on the freeway. Of course I had my foot to the floor accelerating and when I shifted I noticed that the pedal didn't come back up (throttle return spring came off). Just turned it off, pulled over, fixed the spring and sped off. Ah, the days of driving a car...

I contacted an old friend who works for Folsom Lake Ford and he printed out the specs. These, above, are for the 4x4. The 4x2 is a bit different: Item Left Right Tolerance (Side to side) Camber Front 0.44° ± 0.75° 0.44° ± 0.75° 0.00° ± 0.75° Rear - - - Caster Front 2.90° ± 0.75° 2.90° ± 0.75°...

Cool, thanks! I'll chat with the service guy to see if we believes me. Where did you get this from?

Does anyone have the stock alignment specs? I ask because mine is at the dealer to have the tonneau cover installed but I also asked them to check the alignment since it wandered on the grooves in the cement highway. They said it had 3 degrees positive caster and they said that since they...

Me too. I hate the foot brakes and I really, really, hate the electrical ones. Just give me a hand brake with a cable. Thanks Ford for giving me exactly that. Of course since my old GMC Canyon had the foot brake I still accidentally step on that pedal:-). It's only been 3 weeks so I'm still...

I think (maybe I hope:-)) that it's more than 1/2 in out of shortening the shackles as I'm just hoping to get less of a rake out of the stock setup. I agree that a flip kit is the way to go if one wants any more than a couple of inches. As a matter of fact, I'm kind of surprised the stock...

I was just out looking at mine. I'm fine with the front height even if it's a bit tall for a 4x2 but the rear is a good 3" taller than the front. I wouldn't mind dropping the rear about 2" to level it out and remove some of the extra gap. The front of the leafs won't come down any (I think...

I too ordered them from the factory. I both like the look and that they will stop things from getting on the doors/bed.

Yep, that works. First press starts the music on my phone, the second pulls up a menu where I can choose the input similar to how the antenna button pulls up a choice of AM, FM1 and FM2. Thanks!

There isn't a source button that I know of. There is a button with a picture of what looks like an antenna on it which, when pushed, shows AM, FM1 and FM2 and I can select. There is a button with a musical note that, when pressed, starts playing the music from my phone.

I'm interested in how USB drives will work with normal Sync since that's what my Ranger has. I have a USB stick that I had in my aftermarket stereo in my Canyon that I plugged in and got the popup that it's indexing it that goes away. From reading I need to push the "media" button but I don't...
