I'll echo what @Gizmokid2005 said. It's really solid. No bouncing, no rattling, etc. I had my tablet mounted low to keep it from view so that would get in the way of the passengers leg (would have to raise it when I had a partner riding along), but otherwise the mount itself is pretty out of the...
Looks good! I'm sure you do, but make sure you have the spacers in under the bolts. Also, I suspect that if you take the whole thing off, you could put the stabilizer leg on one of the bolts closest to the center console. It wouldn't sit flat but it might help just enough. I've been to lazy to...
I ran into the same issue. Fortunately it doesn't really seem to be necessary. My mount is plenty stable without it. Post some pics up when you complete your setup!
Happy to help. You can definitely pick bits and pieces of the mount I have and make something that works for you. That's the beauty of the RAM stuff. Just be aware that the tablet mount is C size (1.5" Ball) and the cell phone mounts are B size (standard 1" ball).
Sure! Components are as follows:
- RAM-VP-TBF12U 12" Lower Pole
- RAM-VP-SW1-8 8" Upper Pole with Double Swing Arms & Round Plate
- RAM-VB-202 No-Drill™ Vehicle Base for '19-20 Ford Ranger & 2020 Explorer
- RAM-HOL-TAB25U TabTite Tablet Holder
The C size mount might be a little overkill for a...
Haha. So after some further research I found out that this was a separate module manufactured by a company called Intermotive for Ford. For what it's worth they make products that work with a variety of different makes/models, but nothing for the current Ranger. They do have some cool stuff though.
Curious if anybody has ever seen the Ford Surveillance Mode option in ForScan or if somebody can figure out how to make it work. All of the necessary hardware is there and I know there are other police interceptor options that have been discovered in ForScan.
For those unfamiliar...
Placement on the Ranger windshield was a little tricky because of the large amount of metallic tint where I would have normally placed the transponder. Ended up mounting a little off center as seen below and it works great.
Another option would be an external tag. I have a plate mounted tag on...
RAM mounts are the best. Seems like theres almost an infinite way of customizing them. This is my current setup utilizing the Ranger specific seat bolt mount.
Yes, exactly, looking to see if there is a satellite radio antenna installed even though my factory radio doesnt have an xm/sirius option. I installed a commander touch aftermarket radio that came with the standard mag mount xm antenna, but if I can tie into the factory antenna, I'd much rather...
@Caluke You seem to be the go t ok guy for wiring diagrams and such! Any idea if the base XLT with the 4" sync system has a satellite radio antenna I can hook my aftermarket unit to? The truck doesnt come equipped with XM, but I figure the antenna units are probably the same across the board.
Just want to say that I whole heartedly endorse the Trigger products. I have the Trigger 4 Plus installed in my 2019 Wrangler and it's probably my favorite add on. It was a super easy install, made wiring my a-pillar and ditch lights a breeze, and I haven't noticed any difference in reliability...
