I use this and am very pleased with it. No installation necessary - plug and play.

I was planning on renting my camper out when I bought it so wanted a solution that could go with the camper if needed. I ended up up not renting it...
I bought the $1k Clearview mirrors with all the bells and whistles and am happy with them. However, I found that folding in the mirrors makes very little difference. The mirrors stick out 14” from the door. Folded in that only goes down to 10 ½”. The heated option and bliss I can completely...
My son had LE3's on his Jeep Cherokee and they were so great that when my wife's Lincoln needed new treads I put them on that. They've been great on that too.
I wouldn't put them on my Ranger though. I had Nitto Ridge Grapplers and now just changed to Cooper Discoverer Rugged Trek's. My...
I have this one (because I have other Craftsman V20 tools), and I love it. It works plugged in AC at the house, DC in the car and on battery anywhere you need. It can fill high pressure like tires and high volume like air mattresses and pool toys. It's very versatile, and I like that.
Love your set up. I totally wanted to do an overland build like yours for my Ranger. I had it all thought out. Got the lift and bigger tires installed. I'd researched the roof top tents and knew what I wanted. Had all sorts of visions of deep, back county camping. Took the wife to the...
I bought a life time alignment from Firestone (as I do with any car I buy). They have them on sale from time to time (firestonecompleteautocare.com/offers/) making the lifetime just a little more than a one time. The truck had an alignment from the installer of the lift and then 4 alignments...
Here's the link to a post I made after a 6400 mile camping trip earlier this summer through the Rockies. It details my thoughts on the capability of the Ranger.

I've been using the Curt Echo for a couple of years now on multiple trailers including my 7000 ish pound travel trailer. It works great. Really the only time you need to even get into the app is if you want to change the brake sensitivity profile for that particular trailer. You can set and...
I've had sync issues since new. I've had it into the dealer a half dozen time about it. Now that I'm out of warranty, I'm having all those same issues you are describing. The thought of this new age of no manual controls or gauges, with everything buried in a touch screen terrifies me because...
Here's a Ranger owner that tried Fox, Bilstein, and Eibach on the same truck and his thoughts about the characteristics of each.
After agonizing for months about what to buy, I decided on Bilstein. Went to try to buy them and they were on back order. So I went with Eibach because they were...
Perhaps I was misleading with the wording of my post. "I" didn't do the actual install of the suspension or the crash bars. My participation was limited to sliding a piece of plastic into a black box and signing.
So to answer your question, it was pretty easy for me.
I did install the...
