From what I heard the Fox 2.0’s seem to be the perfect choice. Not too hard as an old school pick up, yet, not as bouncy as the stock option either it seems. Currently my truck drives like it wants to dive
I’ll also check out the leaf spring options and everything else states above.. Thank you...
last rear shock absorbers were worn down to begin with, then
For the rear shock absorber, they were worn down badly to begin with. Long story short, I lent my truck to a good friend of mine to move a few things. My buddy calls me, and the bottom half of the shock absorber casing was ripped...
I’ve already temporarily replaced my rear shock absorbers due to my last ones breaking. Just got the OEM from ford as I have a mechanics ford discount, so it wasn’t too expensive overall, but planning on getting new shock absorbers when I replace my rear leaf springs and front struts, preferably...
Hello,
in the new year I am planning on doing a full overhaul on my 2019 ford Ranger XLT. Starting off with the front end Brakes, Suspension, and all over components in the area of Wheels/Suspension/etc.
I need to do a few replacements for my Caliper Guide pins, Calipers, and most likely new...
I haven’t heard the noise since that night, it is very possible it was the mirror, but not too sure until it comes back. Video didn’t do justice compared to how loud it was in person. Granted I also had my phone dangling out the window too haha. Looks like I owe you a 10 pack Tim bits and Dark...
That’s crazy. I only take my truck to a dealership if myself, and my trusted mechanic doesn’t want to deal with the problem hahah. I use to work for ford myself, but from time to time a noise catches me off guard.
Dealerships are hit or a miss at times too. I’ve tried to go in to check my CDF...
Thank you! Never would’ve guessed it’d be the carrier bearing. I have to do an upper driveshaft replacement soon anyways, so I’ll replace those on the other driveshaft as well.
At first I thought it was a brake issue in the front, as I had to use a shorter threaded bolts for my caliper guide...
Merry Christmas to all of you lads. Today while driving my 2019 ford Ranger, I heard an odd sounding noise for the first time while driving.
While driving down a road going about 40km/h I started hearing this odd whistling kind of sound. At first I thought it was a car behind me until I rolled...
So far I’ve loved my 5th Gen Ranger, despite all the problems I’ve found. I am disappointed with the 2 piece lug nuts as all ford vehicles these days use them, and they tend to swell too quickly in the hotter weather. Couldn’t tell you how many vehicles have come into the shop with swollen...
Hey lads,
I am unsure if any of you may have had this issue with any 5th Gen Rangers.
So, I had bought a 2019 Ford Ranger XLT back in 2023 due to my old Ford Taurus Police Interceptors Transmission Blew up (surprise surprise) and ever since buying the truck with 91,000 KM on it, I’ve had weird...
I completely agree, At first I thought my transmissions CDF drum was bad, including torque converter, but after speaking with my mechanic who had mentored me while working at ford, he had heard the concerns I had, and the issues with my truck. He first said to work my way up from easy, cheaper...
completely agree. The 10R80 has potential if the manufacturing was good. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe a big issue is the bushing in the CDF drum which is notorious for replacement. Luckily there is an aftermarket CDF drum and parts that are better made, only down side is the price. But...
Just like their ford f-150 lightnings 🤣 couldn’t tell you how many of those trucks went into shop for dead/destroyed batteries within the first month of people purchasing
yes, I was thinking installing an upgraded Turbo, a proper cold air intake, not one of those useless, CAI that sits in the engine bay instead of connecting to an outside source of air 🤣 tuning is a good idea, which I’ve never tuned or brought one in to tune before so new experience hahah. And a...
