Thanks for all the help this past year, I’ve had my truck a little over a year and put approximately 18,000 miles in the first year. Truck now has 21,500 on it with the following service: 1. Rebuilt rear end (warranty covered, leaking from the rear seal cover). 2. Rebuilt transmission (after a...

Hi, Looking for a quality DC to DC converter/charger that I can mount in my travel trailer and use to run some 12V lead acid deep cycle batteries for accessory power. I'm guessing the 7-pin harness on the Ranger has a limited current output on the Black (+12V) pin, does anybody have a...

I’ve never done this before, but seriously thinking about Ford Protect for my 2022 Ranger. It’s currently down for the valve body and transmission work, as it’s been experiencing harsh 3-4 shifts and delayed engagement in “R” causing the tires to squeal when shifting from “P” to “R”. I’ve also...

As promised, attached are some Blackstone Labs reports with Motorcraft 5W-30 (first change) vs. Amsoil (second oil change). Some key takeaways: - The Amsoil appears to be thicker but also sheared to a 5W-20 presumably due to the high temperatures this engine runs at. - The fuel dilution...

Trying to see if anyone has excess fuel dilution from operation where the oil does not reach 212f daily. I’ve found on my 2022, if I do in-town drives of less than 30 miles / 30 minutes, my oil level goes up. Problem is, there is no oil temp readout on these trucks unlike other trucks which...

Took my 2022 in for a complaint of harsh 3-4 shift in the morning and after a few days of diagnosis, I received an update. Valve body needs replaced, the unit needs flushed to clean any metal shavings or debris, and the unit may need to be dropped/replaced if after they swap the valve body and...

Title says it all. I am not an aggressive driver. I’ve had the alignment done around 10k, rotate my tires, and it still seems to wear the rights differently than the lefts. Any ideas? About to mention to the dealer when I get my transmission flashed for the 2nd time…

I am thinking of using the factory upfitter switches (switch 3-6) to control some ambient lighting in the cab. I don’t care for color changing, nor any lights that stay on after the key is removed, so I think the smaller amperage upfitter switches are perfect. Has anyone done this using switch...

So…last few vehicles I’ve owned the owner’s manual was way off when it came to flushing brake fluid. Some said it was a “lifetime” fluid, or something like 150k miles. Plenty of times I’ve seen dirt behind the pistons, leaky calipers, air in the lines, and torn rubber boots before 150k...

Wanting to install an Autowbrake on my travel trailer instead of modifying the Ranger. Any caveats with this setup (my Ranger seems to only provide power to the trailer when ignition is on, which seems normal), and has anyone installed one with success? I would be using the Brake, Aux 12V...

My 2.3 EcoBoost has developed a timing chain rattle on startup. This is a mostly highway driven vehicle, which does 400 mile state to state trips regularly, and doesn’t see much (if at all) city driving. I run Amsoil, use the best WIX filters, and always keep my oil level up to max (truck...

Post pictures of your Oxford White Ranger Tremor! (Not to be confused with the Oxford White Ranger thread…this is for Oxford White Tremors only…lol)

With the stock oil filter being where it is, and the amount of mileage I drive, will relocating it from the wheel well with an extension kit or custom fab’d part void warranty? Am I asking for trouble if I bring this thing in for tires or an alignment and they see the oil filter relocated...

Good evening, My 2022 4x4 Tremor with stock tires and gearing has developed an interesting transmission issue: it seems to get “stuck” between gears at times and no amount of throttle (gentle application or heavy throttle) seems to get it out of this state until the trans decides to apply power...

As some have reported, the B&O system has hardware differences vs the base with the 8” touch screen. I’m OK with that, but was wondering if the B&O tweeter was installed on one of the lesser systems would there be any impedance or fit issues? Just trying to get more of a “studio monitor” sound...

I know the Guess-O-Meters for MPG and range can be off on some vehicles, but is any of yours nearly as bad as what I’m getting for an estimate? I’ll fill up and have 475-498 miles displayed on the range meter, but only get 450 or so miles before the needle is pegged on “E” and the truck is...

Does anybody have experience with something like these on their ranger? https://www.amazon.com/RBP-RBP-4131ZR-Universal-Truck-Pedal/dp/B01LZ913CW/ I have factory sport pedal covers on everything else I own, but most sports cars come with these as an option. I'm probably going to drill into...

Still getting used to my new Ranger and the dealer told me the oil change interval is "up to 10,000 miles" for the 2.3L EcoBoost engine on Ford Synthetic Blend oil. My previous GMC 6.2L called for a 7,500 mile oil change interval and according to the Blackstone lab reports I've done on it, with...

Does anybody know if a Pedal Commander or other throttle controller (Banks Pedal Monster, for example) will help with offroading in slippery surfaces? Maybe my truck is still new and I'm getting used to the throttle tip-in, but it's really easy to spin tires even when going at slow speed in...

Greetings, New to the forum and just purchased a '22 Ranger Tremor XLT. I was wondering if the factory upfitter switches can be used for light loads, such as a small <275W audio amplifier? My XLT did not come with the B&O sound system and I'm thinking of adding a JL Audio Stealthbox under the...
