I went ahead and changed the rear shocks from stock to Bilstein 5100's. A local off-road upfitter shop wants to charge me $933 for the fronts. Does this sound like a good price? 2 Bilstein front 5100's $157ea Install $385 Alignment $150 Also, just doing the rears raised up the back end by a...

Hi all I'm interested in buying some lights to fill in some of the dark unlit areas to the sides of the headlights. I would prefer if it did not blind oncoming drivers because I don't want to be flashed. I have an XLT with the fog lights but they just dont cut it. Might upgrade those at another...

On July 11, I brought my Ranger into the dealer to hear the axle noise I just started noticing. They deemed the front axle bad and ordered a replacement. I was told it wasn't expected to become available until Aug 28. Aug came and went. They are now telling me they expect it to become available...

I'm a very slow driver, but I'm just really curious about this. We must have some lead foot drivers in here. There's a school of thought that says "a redline a day keeps the mechanic away" although I'm not sure that's true. 😅 ^NOT ME

My dad test drove my 2022 Ranger and absolutely hates the transmission but loves the truck and I love the truck but the transmission makes me very nervous. He has also ordered a 23 Maverick but it hasn't arrived yet. Wondering what the odds are he'll hate the transmission in the Maverick because...

At low speeds with the window down, I can hear a swish swish swish rubbing noise coming from the front left area. Was able to reproduce the noise with engine off coasting down hill. It took two attempts, but I got the dealership mechanic to hear it as well. 15min later they diagnosed it as a...

Hey guys. As this is my first truck, I have some questions regarding 4WD usage so that I do not hurt the vehicle. Its a '22 Ranger XLT sport 4WD. I frequently have to use 4WD for 20 foot sections at a time such as a steep driveway with some slippery leaves on it. At these times, I dont steer...

Hey guys and gals I think I'm going to get some AlphaRex headlights but I cannot decide chrome or black. Care to give opinions and better yet, show pics of yours with the lights off? And even if you cant decide either, I think we can all agree my photo editing skills are CRAP! lol...

I'm still a new owner, so please excuse if you guys already know about this, but while waiting in the line at McDonalds (they are so slow) I noticed these interesting vent holes between the power ports. Any ideas why these are here? Heat rises, so I doubt its supposed to vent heat. It occurs...

I have a 100ft long 12° angle driveway. Think of that as fairly steep. When I come home, I lock out all the gears except first. Halfway up the driveway, the truck jolts pretty darn violently the continues on. Its like the truck is in 2nd and shifts VERY harshly to first except its already in...

Yeah this is possibly a stupid post I realize but I've always wanted a turbocharged vehicle largely for the cool sounds. Well imagine my surprise when I bought my first ever turbo truck here and I cant hear it at all. My dad had a '16 Expedition with a twin turbo 3.5L and those things whistled...

Just a quick observation from definitely-not-an-audiophile. The treble and mids, even when adjusted up, sound like there are blankets covering the speakers. Anybody else notice this? Would a speaker upgrade fix it?

Hey guys I'm having a pretty difficult time finding the part numbers for the outside side mirror covers, in iconic silver. The lariat has the body colored side mirrors and my XLT does not, so I'd like to upgrade. Can anybody help me find the part numbers for both mirror covers in silver for my...

We drove 6 hours to get the truck from NC to KY so I'm back home now and it already has 400mi on it. On the way home (mostly highway as you'd imagine) I averaged 26.5mpg. Not bad. Its a 4WD XLT. I like the truck pretty well so far. I did notice the left side of the tailgate is WAY off, like...

I was about to plunk down the down-payment and go ahead and buy my silver '22 Xlt Ranger but after coming across all the oil dilution issues (reading through the threads) I'm afraid I'll have to cross this otherwise great truck off my shopping list. I want something that has some longevity to...

Hey all. I'm trying to purchase (order) a new Ranger XLT 4x4 supercab and visited a dealer over the weekend. As the title states, I was informed I better order quickly as the ability to order a Ranger will soon be closed. Is this accurate? Also, is $32900 a good price for that truck (only...
