First, so sorry to hear about this. Never fun to have to deal with this type of major repair work.
I'll ask here to you @zebrakja and others what does rough shifting mean exactly?
I have a 2020 Ranger with 35,000 miles - I've always felt downshifting/braking was weird - noisy and chattery...
I see there are several threads on bug deflectors - I'll chime in here.
I added an AVS to my truck a few weeks ago and it helped tremendously. The water pooling at the top of the hood has stopped and my bug-to-windshield ratio has plummeted - this is non-scientific but when I'm driving the...
This is super helpful - my transmission has always made more noise than I liked - thanks to @Fitzmotor for the thread and @ctechbob for this video - once the rain stops I'll go check it cold with the motor off :crackup:
The Pelican boxes are nice, versatile, and waterproof! Lots of overland brands have boxes of all sizes and shapes - https://www.pelican.com/us/en/product/cases/cargo/bx255?sku=BX255-BLK&gclsrc=ds

I have the 5 stair model due to the height of the Ranger. It does get a touch heavy lifting it up and...
I loved all the mods - thanks for sharing! I need to go buy a center console tray and DeeZee tailgate damper - I had no idea I needed them. :like:
My mods were Firestone airbags for extra support for my RSI Smart Cap (which I love!). I added an AVS bug guard/hood shield after several rock...
I just took a road trip to North Carolina - West of Ashville. I saw around 35 older Rangers and about 25 new Rangers. From New York to Carolina - the new Rangers were sparse. Once I was in the Carolinas they really started cropping up. I saw personal vehicles and fleet vehicles.
I still love my Ranger. 9K on mine and too much upside for the few downsides. I may have more after another 10K. I do wish mileage was better but I'm running an RSI Smart Cap, Decked system, kayaks on top, and am getting 21 mpg - city and highway.
The dealer I bought my truck from has a...
