Good info. Thank you. I did updates over WiFi but one of the files seemed to be taking an excessive amount of time to download, or it stopped downloading. I aborted the process. Other information I read online said that Ford Pass was required to pass nav info from the phone to Android Auto. A...

Thank you. It will be good to get the bumper rail squared away so the red tow hook loops and skid plate can go on. That will complete the bulldog front end. The shudder I'm feeling is barely perceptible and only from a standing start through first gear to maybe 10 mph. I'm just super sensitive...

WOOHOO! Good enough to pass emissions. Took it out tonight to adjust the headlights. Not bad for $300 DRLs. Low beams look pretty good. High beams are decently bright but leave a bit of a darker section between low and high. Can always supplement with good driving lights if it ever bothers me...

Busy Ranger morning. Got it insured last night and went to a local place for the emissions first thing. I knew it wouldn't pass because the ECU wasn't ready. Needs some more driving time. But I wanted the paperwork to show a cop I was in the registration process if necessary. Otherwise the March...

If anything, lowering the collar would unload the spring more so it should actually be slightly softer, although I doubt it would be that noticeable. The Eibach's have longer springs compared to the stock ones. My goal was about 2 1/2" total lift up front, which is why I turned the collars down...

Oddly, the preset lift height is not listed in any of the material that comes with the shocks. I watched a review before purchasing them in which it was stated that the shocks are set at a 3" lift. They come with a detailed installation guide and at the very end it's listed that 1 (one) full...

Finally got the correct driver-side tie rod yesterday and spent a good part of today putting everything back together All the fender splash panels, flares, shorter sway bar end links and so forth. Set the camber bolts on the lower control arms so they're out as far as they'll go, put it on the...

Thanks. Yeah us passionate types have a tendency to overreact sometimes. I still wish I had just kept the Frontier, but that's ancient history now. I wanted a rebuild back to OEM, which the body shop failed at fairly miserably. But I am getting it cleaned up decently. My problem is I strive for...

Well folks, Whitemare has smacked me upside the head once again. The OEM tie rods arrived. The passenger side is correct, the driver side is not. It's the same smaller shank and bolt as the Mevotechs I received and returned. However, as irritating as it is, this mistake appears to be my own. I...

Thought I was ready to finish the front suspension after getting the Eibach struts installed. But could something actually go right? Of course not. This is "Whitemare," the salvage Ranger rebuild project from hell. The shank and bolt on the Mevotech tie rods I ordered are smaller than the OEM...

Excellent. Thank you. Now I can see where some of the parts go that are on the Ford parts diagram. There's one square-ish inner shield part on the diagram shown in the original post that I still don't see where it goes, but no big deal. This rebuild is lifted with Roush wheels, larger tires and...

Thank you for the reply and pics. Unfortunately you missed the part in my post where I said that I have all the rubber pieces that mount to the frame around the struts. I also have a bag of push pins so those aren't an issue. What I need specifically is what's at the front of the fender well. I...

Still putting the salvage Ranger back together. Finally got the Eibach struts installed and most of the front end above the bumper. Some pieces in the driver side fender well are obviously missing. It would be a huge help if someone could maybe share a couple of pictures of that area. I may...

Headlights arrived yesterday. Sent another email to Headlight Revolution requesting a return label to send the things back for a FULL refund. I noted the PayPal claim, to which there has been no response, and upped the ante with the Georgia Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division. This...

Still hoping the issue will be kicked upstairs at Headlight Revolution to someone who has a clue and will make it right. Time will tell.

Haven't dodged it yet. I strongly suspect they aren't going to take responsibility for their backorder notification screwup and will probably ignore me as much as possible.

No, I do not have them. I filed a dispute with PayPal immediately after Headlight Revolution's email to me stating the shipment was "on the docks" and the order could not be cancelled. I've worked in and dealt with various industries long enough to know that if a company really wants to correct...

Just wanted to share a very unfortunate experience I'm having with Headlight Revolution. Decided I wanted a set of DRL headlights for my 2020 XLT and ordered a pair of Carbide headlights from Headlight Revolution. About 30 minutes after placing the order, I received an email that items in the...

Not much progress to report. Got the new Sealight LED bulbs installed in the OEM-style headlight housings and tested them, then decided I might as well install DRL assemblies instead. Did a bunch of research and settled on a pair of Carbide headlights from Headlight Revolution. About a half...

Looks like next on the list is a new battery. After the truck came back from the repair shop I didn't move or start it but noted the next day that the fob wouldn't lock the doors. Didn't think much of it until it still wouldn't work after changing the fob battery. Then I tried the spare fob...
