  1. Mice

    Opened up my truck today after it sat over the weekend on a job site and spotted a mouse coming from the passengers floor board area and then hopping into the back seat and disappearing. I need to take all my tools out to clean and investigate. Does anyone know where the most likely spot is to...
  2. Leaf pack questions

    Not to derail the thread, but frenchy I assure you I do not have the standard OME leafs. I have the higher rated ones from stage 3 moto and they are the S3M-OME56MMLEAFKIT. Perhaps there is one step above, but these are a 4+1 with a stack height of 2.2in rated for constant loads of 600-800...
  3. Leaf pack questions

    I’ve been running the OME HD leaf pack for several years now. Empty or with a light load in the bed the rear of the truck is raised over stock and sits slightly higher than the front with a standard lift height of 2-3 from the front shocks. When I run with my trailer tongue weight and or...
  4. Leaf pack questions

    Old man emu full leaf pack in the HD rating for 800lb load. Truck will be level with the lift in the front when bed is loaded. Paired with some good shocks they ride incredible
  5. Comparability of motorcraft and valvoline ULV

    Folks I’m going to do a transmission fluid service by pumping all I can out of the fill port and replacing the exact volume. I have been researching the Valvoline ULV and would like to refill the transmission with it however since there will still be a volume of the OEM fluid I can’t get out I’m...
  6. Muffler Hair SOS

    yep that looks exactly like the material blowing out the tail pipe….not sure how that happened by it did. I bet by now my muffler is bald inside
  7. Muffler Hair SOS

    Well I just got back from my road trip. Towed my 6k enclosed snowmobile trailer about 800 miles in total including two runs over the coquihalla summit. If that didn’t blow out the muffler hair I don’t know what will. Got the equivalent of 9.4 mpg. Still can’t tell if I love or hate this truck lol.
  8. Muffler Hair SOS

    Still struggling to understand how it failed internally to the point where it's blowing the glass packing out....I've had a few cheap aftermarket mufflers do this back in the day but never an OEM unit
  9. Muffler Hair SOS

    Thanks Frenchy. Good to know it's coming from the resonator. That makes it seem much less likely for a serious restriction. Glad I didn't jump right into removing the muffler LOL. I still might add a new magna flow down the road but I would like to retain the resonator so it seems like driving...
  10. Muffler Hair SOS

    Well my Ranger sprouted a nice big head of muffler hair. My wife took it to have our snow tires put on in preparation for trip to Revelstoke BC and came home with the packing blowing out the tail pipe. Do any of you exhaust experts know if the resonator that's down stream of the muffler has any...
  11. OBD port fuse location

    Probed #16 for constant power and got 12v. I am assuming this means the pins inside the port are somehow damaged and not making contact with the male pins on the OBD2 tool. Looks like I might have to replace the data link comm module part# JB3T-14F642-BA. If anyone else experiences a no power to...
  12. OBD port fuse location

    Wondering if the OP ever resolved this issue. Im having a similar problem with no power too a scan tool from the OBD2 port....fuse is good
  13. Oil in Spark Plug Wells

    I just mean shell/chevron/76 no random deep county stations like we have around here. I got the oil residue really cleaned up well using these big q tips from my gun cleaning kit so I will keep an eye on it and if the oil re appears let the dealer see what they can do. Im buried with a clutch...
  14. Oil in Spark Plug Wells

    I have done all my own oil changes except for the most recent one when I was out of town and my wife took it in. I agree on the suspect excess oil residue around holes #2/3. I always wipe up every single drop if there is any when I fill the oil. With the raised lip onto of the cover that the...
  15. Oil in Spark Plug Wells

    Well the latest curve ball from the Ranger has me scratching my head. Due to a miss fire at idle and concerns of water in the plug wells I decided to change the plugs at just over 30k. Hole #2 and #3 were full of oil. It was at least 1/4in up on the boot and puddled up around the plug when I...
  16. Rear inner brake pads smoked at 28k!

    I agree with your description of how the truck feels with the TM off vs on. With the TM on snow mode it feels like the pedal response is very dulled down and the torque is greatly reduced to prevent the tires from breaking loose. Perhaps some of this accomplished by the computer applying the...
  17. Rear inner brake pads smoked at 28k!

    Just got into some snow for the first time this season up in revy. Back roads in 4-6in fresh over compact snow/black ice. Ran in 4hi with TM set to Snow, getting a little sideways around corners having some fun. Smell of rear brakes getting really hot when I parked. Seems that something to going...
  18. Rear inner brake pads smoked at 28k!

    Exact same scenario I experienced. I went over everything with a fine tooth comb and couldn’t find anything out of sorts with the sliders, pistons, or e brake. I will be checking the new pads once I get some miles on to see if the inners are wearing prematurely again.
