  1. Biggest tire size without modifications on ‘22 Lariat Tremor?

    20" wheel super fabulous for driving to the mall. They will be horrid if you do any real off roading, as you will have little tire balloon to deflate when you air down, so squish over rocks and jaggedy stuff will be dramatically reduced, you will need to keep tire pressure up to avoid pinch flats.
  2. FX4 or Locking differential

    I'd never get a 4x4 w/o locking diff again. Had a 90's Nissan 4x4 w/ open diffs,. Very easy to get stuck, would not climb worth a crap. Love my Fx4, If planning zero offroading, no deep water/mud/snow - go w/ the XLT with locking differential and remote start. When my warranty expires, I...
  3. Electronic Locking Differential Turns off on corners

    "Please explain why you should use a locker in 4 Low." For travel over low traction surface, rubble, mud, steep bumpy incline. Anywhere wheel spin will stall your forward motion.
  4. Electronic Locking Differential Turns off on corners

    Diff lock will stress the diff when cornering on hi traction surface, outside tire travels farther than inside tire. Maybe truck smart enough to turn it off in cornering on dry pavement?
  5. Finally Did My Own Oil Change

  6. Ford licensed TBC Install Instructions

    I got the Tekonsha N90160 for less than $90. I have tow package so wiring was already in place, just had to splice in the connector harness, pretty simple install. Works like a charm. Isn't it amazing that Pictograms were how humans wrote stuff down in 9000 BC. Wow what progress we have...
  7. Reliability and new owner advice

    Ford ranger was most reliable midsize truck per consumer reports. They don't take money from anyone but consumers, so pretty sure bet. That is why I got my ranger.
  8. 2nd most controversial mod...

    I looked under the hood and thought someone stole the engine cover. Looked fairly ugly. Researched and found it is stock only on the lariat. $5 worth of blowed foam. Researched and found cheapest part (CArID about $65), put it on. Motor is a little quieter. I can better hear my CAI and Cat...
  9. Rotten Eggs

    https://rislone.com/products/cat-complete-fuel-exhaust-emissions-system-cleaner/ The Catalytic Converter (CC) will probly make hydrogen sulfide until warmed up. If it keeps stinking, try some cleaner. I ran a tank of 1/4 93 octane + 3/4 100 octane (no lead) racing fuel in my truck once last...
  10. Diff Drop - Anybody here do one?

    I have the 3.5" BDS kit on my Ranger. The diff drop is of heavier steel than the factory one. Plus location of factory drop would seem to block any mod. I cannot see how any diff drop would avoid cutting off the factory welded one. The BDS Drop comes w/ their lift n level kit. VERY happy...
  11. New wheel day! Finally no more wheel spacers!

    Very Very nice. Smart you went w/+ offset so wheel/tires don't poke out like outriggers! Look great inside the wheel wells!
  12. Went to colder spark plugs.........and....

    I always clean then Lube the boots w/ Silicon grease, thin coat rubbed inside and out. Makes them last longer, easier to remove, and helps keep the seal better than new. Smart you used antiseize on threads!
  13. Costco says 265/70R17 will rub and won’t install them. Help.

    Costco VERY lawsuit paranoid. Will not install ANYTHING other than stock size.
  14. CENTER JACK POINTS

    No trouble w/ diff after setting it back down. 5000 miles later.
  15. CENTER JACK POINTS

    Right under the diff, yes. Sketchy, yes. 4 stands as needed to remove all wheel to install 1.25" billet spacers to fit 295/70R-17 tires. Bikes to camouflage the work from prying HOA spies ( : o
  16. Led Headlight bulbs

    You may find them to be a bit dim " 2250 Lumen/Bulb "
  17. Ranger Loud Compared to F150?

    After I got my XLT, I drove it for a bit. Once, when looking under the hood, I caught on to something. Some bstrd stole my engine cover ( : o . A bit of research revealed it was Ford. They don't put it on any but the Lariat. Probly saves them $15 bucks per truck sold. Then they will...
  18. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    I have a Kobalt 24v chainsaw with 1 - 6ah battery and 2 - 4ah batteries. It cuts like a monster, starts EVERY time I pull the trigger, no stink. When the batteries are, done hours into the job, so am I. My family has used 2 strokes for years. We have a collection. They randomly stop...
