  1. Squeaking when driving over bumps

    Actually, I knew what you were saying, just couldn't resist. All in good fun, hope you took it that way. ?
  2. Squeaking when driving over bumps

    Some exhaust systems have a "ball" type joint that allows for some misalignment. I've even seen these with springs on the bolts to allow the pipe to pivot but still hold the everything together. I haven't looked at my truck to see if any sort of joint is there, but you might check. It might need...
  3. Squeaking when driving over bumps

    Have you checked the exhaust system? It pretty much just hangs there. One of the hangers may be squeaking. Quick check by just grabbing the tailpipe (after it has cooled) and give it a shake.
  4. Squeaking when driving over bumps

    Ok, I gotta ask. If your foot is on the brake, how is the out of balance tire turning? Or did I miss something?
  5. Inner Rear Brake Pads Burning Up

    I haven't checked, but most rotors have a minimum thickness. So with excessive wear and turning, they might need to be replaced regardless of appearance.
  6. Removing rear plastic wheel well covers?

    A grinder will also work.
  7. forscan newbie: wont save changes. wont read DTC codes. why?

    I'd bet on the code being thrown for no bulb. I've had 2 different soft tops, and both had LED high mount brake lights. Both were wired in from the truck bed brake light circuit as per the instructions that came with them. I wouldn't go all the way to the cab high mount brake light if I didn't...
  8. 8492 - 2019 Ranger - Trailer Brake Controller Availability

    From my point of view, Ford should have included the TBC with the trailer tow package, especially since only one TBC is approved. Alternatively, Ford could have offered a basic tow package and an upgraded tow package. The basic package could include a standard flat connector and receiver hitch...
  9. forscan newbie: wont save changes. wont read DTC codes. why?

    You could have a poor connection when you plug your adapter in. It should be a little difficult to remove. I usually reach behind the port with my fingers, have the heel of my hand against the adapter, then squeeze.
  10. FORScan Modifications

    It may be worth noting that a lot of the instructions reference number addresses and require a change to a hex value. The latest Forscan has menu picks so it's much more intuitive.
  11. Supercab Rear Seat Headrest

    To access the bolt holding the seat, open the car seat anchor flap between the headrest posts at the top of the seat back. Reach in and move the nylon web out of the way and you can see the bolt.
  12. Supercab Rear Seat Headrest

    You have a 2019? 2020 doesn't have the button. Ford deleted that feature for 2020 and I suspect Ford is using what's left of 2019 parts so the only things missing are the hole in the cover and the button.
  13. Recommendation needed Tow Controller checkout

    I use one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Electric-Dynamic-Simulation-Circuit-Testing/dp/B073FJ5NVL/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Innovative+Products&qid=1598980803&sr=8-1 I tried one of the cheap light testers, but the truck wouldn't recognize it was there, and wouldn't turn on the...
  14. Cv axle sqeaking on rotation?

    Ok, that's what I thought I saw. Hard to tell in the photos with all the grease in there. Having taken a bunch of CVs apart, I knew this could happen, but have been lucky in that it's not happened to me! Just curious, it looks like you cut the boot cirvumferentially. Did you not want to cut...
  15. Cv axle sqeaking on rotation?

    So when it extended, the race separated from the bearing?
  16. Torque specs for LCA

    And there's this:
  17. Torque specs for LCA

    Which bolts? This is from the 2020 Ranger shop manual:
  18. Supercab Rear Seat Headrest

    Wow! It doesn't get any better than this! I think you're done. Looks good!
  19. Supercab Rear Seat Headrest

    Phil, I can't express how much I enjoy your back stories and experiences, although maybe a little too much detail with this one! Both my old 2000 Ranger Super Cab and my 2011 Ranger Super Cab had flip seats. I really liked those because they didn't take up a lot of room, but were there if you...
