  1. Out near Mt. Rainier

    Yeah, hopefully so! I love seeing the few other 5g Rangers that are out there. I have no idea what conditions are or will be out there this weekend, but there’s a butt-puckering trail that begins at the intersection of NF-7030 and NF-7036 and runs NE above Twin Camp Creek a ways. Here’s a...
  2. Out near Mt. Rainier

    Nice! NF-70 (Stampede Pass) was our first outing after the Icon upgrade and new shoes were installed. Post your off-road pics. There are some fun spots to play out there!
  3. Out near Mt. Rainier

    What area / trail system were you at? Great view of the old ‘cano!
  4. Saw a Gladiator on the road

    That would be hilarious. How low would the gearing need to be for that Prius motor to turn 35’s?! Got ‘em
  5. Saw a Gladiator on the road

    Looks BA. And I’m sure that 3/4 front corner shot doesn’t hurt.:wink:
  6. Saw a Gladiator on the road

    This is why I stayed away from commenting on the appearance. The bone stock “truck” I rented was absolutely horrendous. But lifted w/ 35’s and flat fenders, it tends to grow on me.
  7. Saw a Gladiator on the road

    I recently drove a rented Gladiator for 4 days during a visit/hunting trip out east. Combination of highway, city, and firebreak driving. I found that it basically drove like it looked. A Wrangler with a bed tacked on. On the highway, it was noisy, wandered constantly, and was easily pushed...
  8. PNW Chit Chat

    Hey! I used to live in the Highlands, near 4th & Union. There are tons of places to run everything from easy, well-maintained forest roads or full-on ORV parks. I didn’t get out too much this summer, but a fun spot was Stampede Pass. I have pics up here...
  9. CV axle shaft damaged after installing Fox Stage 1 lift

    Sorry to hear. I and a few others have run into similar issues. The post here tells the story of mine and some others’ odyssey dealing with such issues during/after coilover installation. I and a couple others overextended and dislocated our outer CV joint. Others were unable to reseat or keep...
  10. Any review on ford performance exhaust ?

    I installed the Ford Performance cat-back on my Ranger about 4.5k mile ago. It’s built by Borla for Ford Performance. Here’s a video with sound. You can compare that to the vids of the other exhausts in the following thread...

  12. BDS 2" Leveling Kit with 265/70r18

    I’m running 285/70/17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers (roughly same diameter, but 3/4” wider than yours) on 8.5” rims with +25 offset with a 2.5” lift. I had pretty bad rubbing on the front crash bars until I installed the offset FabTech beams. Edit: On second thought, I’m realizing that my own setup...
  13. Wheel offset

    You should be fine. You’re increasing width of your wheel by only 0.5”, which translates to 0.25” added each way from center. But with a +39 wheel, you’re moving the center of that wheel out by 0.63”(16mm), actually giving yourself an extra 0.4” clearance from the steering knuckle and allowing...
  14. Ford performance exhaust

    Been running mine for about 4k now and I love it. I agree that it’s a great balance. It’s no V8 sound, but it makes the EB sound nice. It’s barely noticeable while cruising, but it definitely let’s you know when you actually get into the throttle. Looks really nice, too. I got the black chrome...
  15. mud flaps????

    Looks like the RokBlokz for the Ranger are out, now. https://rokblokz.com/collections/truck-mud-flaps/products/ford-ranger-2019-mud-flaps Did you happen to pick up a pair? If so, what are your thoughts?
  16. Washington Factory Exhaust - Maple Valley, WA

    I upgraded to Ford Performance / Borla cat-back and looking to offload my factory exhaust. Like new with < 500 street-only miles on it. Asking $300, OBO. Local pickup only.
  17. Auto Folding Mirror Mod Install Instructions - Pictures/Video

    Saved me a LOT of trouble and worry! Thanks!
  18. Outer CV Joint Overextended. Advise???

    Man, sorry to hear it. Sucks to not be able to fully use your new ride. Re-read your first response, and it would seem that @P. A. Schilke was indeed referring to the correct circlip in his mentions. My bad, Phil. So is it just that the entire half shaft is so wonky now, that it’s not keeping...
  19. Turbo diameter?

    Man, hate to hear it. Thanks for the details. Other fellow’s issue is with the halfshafts up front. Had a self-inflicted issue with one of my own half shafts up front and was told parts wer 2-3 months out for a replacement. Edit: Ended up repairing and rebuilding the original part myself...
  20. Turbo diameter?

    Axle shaft? What happened? I ask because another member says he’s having issues keeping his half shafts seated in the transfer case.
