Hi, I commute highways~ 80%, offroad~15% and tow xcountry~5% of my driving. Would these be a good option? (2020 FX4 SCREW 265/67/17, TT is 4500 lbs, 550 tongue weight)

Immediately after taking delivery of my 5G, I realized I screwed up......... should've but 2: 1 for work and 1 for play

Those look great on your Ranger! Do you have a link from where you ordered them? How difficult was the install?

Those BFGs look great on your truck! Did you do any suspension mods... lift/level?

Now that's a Truck!

You wouldn't even have to remove it, upon installation there's an initial adjustment to be made so that it only has tension when payload or hitch weight is applied. The tech folks there were very helpful when I called with Q's.... https://activesuspension.com/

It is stock and has not been leveled. With the camper hitched and WDH installed, it sits 36" in front and 37" in the rear. Unladen, it sits 36-1/2" and 38-1/2"

I installed the RAS on the advice of Grumpaw. I tow a TT at about 550lbs. tongue weight, 4500 total. After the install, it reduced the amount of 'squat' significantly. Very easy install too.

In that pic. left to right is rear cylinder to front, it seems like more water gets in closer to the front of the engine.

I changed mine at 36k. Mine's a 2020 without the engine cover. Lots of rust considering I don't drive through a whole lot of rain (DFW , Texas) or go mudding. It is parked outside and I run it through a carwash a couple times per month.

One issue with using cruise while towing something heavy is excessive shifting which I think can be hard on the transmission. I tow a 4500 lb. camper and if the highway is relatively flat, I lock out 10,9,& 8 and occasionally set the cruise at 65. The RPMs stay at about 2700 and there is very...

Nice looking rig! Did you make any suspension mods for towing that?

Excellent write-up. I've just upgraded to a Salem FSX at 4500/460tw loaded and 400 (passengers+gear) in the truck, no mods so far. If I'm correct you've installed rear shocks, blue Sumos, and Roadmaster Active Suspension. I'm planning the same and was wondering which one of these improvements...

NICE RIG! What's the weight/tongue weight? I'm looking to upgrade to a Salem FSX at around 4000/450 and not sure....

Those generals look great!

Is it just me, or does the front end look kinda like the new Nissan Frontier?

...

Did you have to remove the door panel, or just the upper speaker to install these mirrors?

I drained my damper fluid and replaced it with a 50/50 mix of 303 and Sta-Bil..... tailgate opens and closes automatically now.

It is good to see the Ranger in its natural habitat!
