Visited the Bear Lake property today to clear off any invasive weeds. Hoping to start building my cabin in the next year or two

Had the exact same fracture point on driver’s side—discovered last summer when it was up on the lift for unrelated service. Went with the Icon’s and installed myself and never looked back

I actually have this same issue/question! I’m glad you asked it. I also didn’t know about the toggle on/off button on the turn signal. I’m going to test it later today. Must have bumped it months ago.

Camping up in the hills above Preston, Idaho

Would decreasing the interval between drain/filling trans fluid be an appropriate risk mitigation strategy for those with the original F-Clutch Friction Plates?

Celebrated the pup’s 5th birthday by doing what she loves most—camping. This time was near Bears Ears National Monument with a couple visits to Puebloan ruins. It handled about ~100 miles off-road over the weekend and put the new Icon setup to the test. I was very glad I upgraded the front...

Last fall I removed the rain guards that the previous owner installed which were outside (taped) and replaced with some inside channels because the look is so much better (and way less noisy). I went with the ones produced by Clim Art because they are reliably shatter-proof and from what I could...

Love to see a successful upgrade! My front bushing looked same as yours when I removed it--completely junked. I wonder if in our situations the bushing failed first then the forged eyelet? Or vice versa. Either way, agreed that is not acceptable. I replaced the bolt and nut on the forward eye...

I appreciate the words! I applied some high temp, 6-hour cure JB Weld last night in the hopes I could secure it enough to get me 5 miles to the dealership. Checked on it this morning and it is rock solid. I'm lucky that it was a clean enough break that there were no loose pieces and the spigot...

For sure, the tube assembly was being replaced with the oil-air separator kit that includes two new tubes that hook onto the existing spigots. I followed the instructions here https://performanceparts.ford.com/download/instructionsheets/IS_M-6766-R23_051923.PDF for removing the orange connector...

Had a spare hour to burn today so thought I'd install my Ford Performance Oil-Air Separator kit (M-6766-R23) that I've been sitting on for the past couple of months. It's a super easy install and normally takes a lay person ~15 minutes to install. I installed the bracket which was easy enough...

2nd on this! Just don’t tow until repaired, order some Icons and have a fun project with your grandson. You’ll be very surprised at the ride quality upgrade. And if Ford decides not to cover, you’ll save money by upgrading as well.

I drove a 50 mile trip the other day and it would creep up to 170 and while cruising at a constant speed it would dip back into the 160's again. That reminds me that I wanted to compare temp readings from my gauge pod with the trans temperature reading from my OBD2 reader and see if there is a...

It's been about 500 miles since I swapped to the PPE pan, changed the filter, and installed a trans temp sensor directly into the pan port, and the highest I have run is 170F. I've had the whole mix of stop and go short trips, and a few longer highway runs and it still never goes over 170F. It...

Had the same break point on the driver’s side towards the end of last summer. Would never had known until it was up on the lift for another issue and the mechanic notified me. Took the opportunity to swap to the Icon leafs and have never looked back

Sure thing. This helpful post from @airline tech saved me a lot of guess work: https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/where-the-heck-can-i-find-a-switched-fuse.37746/post-807763

The gauge needed both a constant power and a switched power source, so I used a Micro3 add-a-circuit to Fuses 21 & 22 for my switched power, and another to Fuses 8 & 9 for my constant power. There was an additional and optional orange wire to tap into a headlight-switched power source that would...

Can put a bow on my transmission project--finally finished the install of my MaxTow trans temp gauge inside of an AeroForce gauge pod. Routed the wire from the transmission to the driver's side vent by going thru the passenger side firewall grommet. The 9ft of wire provided was just barely...

Your truck has the FX4 package, it is literally called the "Off-Road" package. What is she carrying on about? Very sorry to hear about your troubles, it seems to be very rare to hear about our engines failing.

I let the truck sit overnight and started pulling fluid at around 11:00 this morning. Took about an hour and a half to pull out 5.5 quarts with the 12v pump, including breaks every 30 minutes. A lot slower than I expected! I decided to follow suit and leisurely take my time to install the new...
