So after some thought and constant stressing over my Ranger, I ended up getting a Frontier. Not the best time to get a new truck but after considerable thought, I figured it was best to make the switch rather than dumping anymore money or time into the Ranger. I got the Frontier at MSRP and...
So today I noticed the shifting felt rougher than normal. I pulled up the gear selection and noticed my transmission wasn’t skipping gears like it should. Both while accelerating and decelerating to a stop. The only gear it would skip was 2nd. All other gears were hit regardless of how much...
So I’ll preface this and say I really do enjoy this truck so I’m not complaining but want to get things looked at while I’m still in warranty and on a day my wife has off so I’ll have a ride home. I have an appointment at the larger ford dealer in my area early March. Posting this in the event...
Well today we got our 8 year old son his first fish. I’ve always liked fish tanks and had one when I was young. Always was very calming to me. I think he will enjoy it.
My kid bought me two of these aluminum decals for my birthday. Went to look to see where I could put them on the truck but most of the areas people put decals on looked a bit too curved for these to want attach. Haven’t tried to install them yet. I may end up putting one of these on the rear...
If you found yourself here reading this I’ll first start off and say this is a Ford Ranger forum, get your filthy minds out of the gutter. ?
Anyway I posed this question the Phil, so I’ll ask everyone so you can all take turns telling me either how dumb I am (most likely) or you’re gonna blow...
So about to purchase a front/rear leveling kit and I’m torn between Bilstein 5100 kit and the Eibach stage 1 adjustable coilovers. The Bilstein kit would save me a lot of money. Am I going to notice any difference in ride in the front with the Bilstein setup since it reuses the factor spring? I...
Received my springs today. I noticed one of the plastic retainers is broken (see pic). It doesn’t seem like it would affect much and maybe I can epoxy it together. There was what I’m guessing a small pin formed into the plastic to keep it in place and that seems to be missing. Anything I should...
So let me preface this by saying I’ve never ran anything but 87 octane gas in every truck I’ve owned. Well last night we had some Kroger gas rewards and since it was just me and my son to make our own decisions and fend for ourselves out in the wild (wife was at home), I may have “accidentally”...
So few questions:
-Can someone who has a tremor do me a solid and measure their tremor bump stops height-wise? If possible also measure the distance from the top of there leaf springs to the bottom of the bump stops to give me another reference point? It would be greatly appreciated. I’d like...
So the last week or so I’ve noticed a solenoid type clicking behind the glovebox when the auto Start Stop starts back up after stopping. Sound like maybe a solenoid? There are two plastic sounding clicks, rather loud, right as the truck starts back up. Sounds like behind the glovebox. Anyone...
Looking for recommendations on tonneau covers that will work with a drop-in bedliner without having to drill and holes or modify my bedliner. Either hard tri fold or a harder style roll up. Right now I’m leaning towards the tri fold.
For those of you who have changed out the side markers, which brand did you go with and did you have any issues with them? Looking to change these out to match the black fender trim on my STX. Thanks.
So I’m currently in the process of swapping to the global leaf springs and changing to the Eibach shocks and coilovers in the search for a bit smoother ride. I may raise front up an inch or so to account for the taller rear end ride height with new leaf springs in order to keep “rake” the same...
Hey, I’m out in Maryville in E. Tennessee. Seeing if anyone out this way works on their own Ranger and if so would be willing to help me with a few suspension upgrades. I’d rather do with some help so I can learn rather tha.n have a shop do it. I think it would be cooler to do with the help of a...
So I’ve been researching Deaver Leaf Springs and found a good deal on a set from a place that will give me a military discount. My question is that since this set doesn’t seem to come with the raptor bump stops like from APG, is there anywhere I can get them?
If one were to swap the rear leaf springs out with aftermarket for better ride quality and wanted to keep the same ride height in the rear, which after market springs would be best? Also, I imagine payload rating and possible towing may change a bit, so what would be a good way to determine max...
So trying to update my sync 3 over wifi and when I scan for updates, it’s shows that none are available and I have the most current version, however when I check my build number it is not the most current. Current version is 22200 and I’m still on 19 something. Fordpass online also shows me I...
