52k and rotors were warped but pads were fine. 33's installed at 8k miles for a little more rotational wear and tear on the rotors/pads.
Upgraded rotors and ceramic pads just went on a few weeks ago - couldn't be happier.
Converted to AlphaRex projectors and never looked back. Stock headlights were absolute dogshit. They're DOT approved. Projector anddddd they're on sale.
Also added BajaDesigns amber fogs - 10/10 would recommend. The wide beam is epic.
However these options are way more expensive than swapping...
Yeah, took it to my spring shop because the driver's side lean bothered me so much. Offroad/HD Spring Shop in Jersey, the guys know their stuff. They re-arced and it resettled back to the same 1/2"-3/4" lean. From what I've read/seen/experienced in the wild - some Ranger's do this and Ford is...
this is what I did yesterday. all 6'3" with my legs fully horizontal leaning on my battery and around the hood strut. pulled it next to my deck so I could basically climb into the engine bay to reach the stupid clamps.
In regard to this thread/part LB5Z-9J433-B: My truck starting hesitating...
I believe you need to completely remove the bumper. On my buddy's tacoma the fog pockets are super accessible, when installing mine I definitely had to remove the entire bumper to get the trim out.
edit- i believe the crash bars are what's in the way
Fox 2.0's, may do the rear leafs eventually. holding off on more mods until I see if the 2023 truck will have that awesome green the bronco has
EDIT: or 2024* whenever we get the new truck
The cliffnotes on not cutting the crashbars and giving you a more aggressive look as you stated is 265/70/17 tires on the stock wheel.
+0 offset wheels stick out a decent amount
+20 is what I run (albeit on a wider tire)
+35 is barely any poke
Love: this place, the customizability of the truck (IE aftermarket support), drivetrain is 10/10.
Hate: sometimes the transmission is dimwitted with 33's, I have "ranger lean" and no one really seems to have an actual solution for it confirmed, and the paint although I love the color chips...
yeah it's friggin brutal. Dont get me wrong i'm very OK with stomping on her every once in a while but to downshift sometimes it seems like you gotta send a certified letter to ford requesting permission to shift LOL
2" level, UCA, P285/70/17 wildpeaks = summer highway 23mpg, winter highway 20-21mpg. 93 octane, stock tune.
prior to lift and level the truck got damn near 27 mpg one trip up the parkway to see my sister when i first switched to 93- admittedly it was a 40 mile trip @ 70-72mph
i truly believe...
