  1. Weight Distribution Hitch setup

    SInce the rear of the Ranger sits up about 3 inches higher than the front, should I allow the rear leaf springs to compress and set the wdh to level the truck front and back, or set it up so the front and rear wheel wells are back to original height before load. The tongue weight is 800 lbs and...

  6. Bigger tires

    Swapped out the OEM 255/65/17 Bridgestones for 265/70/17 Pathfinder HT's (Kumho's). The front end wandering went away and the truck feels so much more stable. Can't wait to tow our camper which was very uncomfortable with the OEM tires.
