towing

I have a WDH, Redarc brake controller, I always punch the trailer button when towing. My trailer is 8' wide by 10'6" and weighs 4100# dry and generally about 5k loaded. The ride is level with the WDH but the ride comfort could be better. I have original stock shocks and am considering putting on...

Front Hitch Receiver Kit - Brautigam Expedition Works 19-23 (this is a kit, not welded together) The kit is New. I decided to go a different direction and did not have the kit assembled so it can still be welded with the 2" receiver centered or offset for adaptive cruise sensors. Last two...

Hey y’all, I’m a first time truck owner and never hauled anything before either. I drive a 2023 Ranger Tremor XLT Supercrew with the 5-foot bed and I’m going to be hauling a 5x8 U-Haul cargo trailer with a 5” drop hitch. My question to you all is, any advice? Am I overthinking the setup? What...

Hi fellow Ranger owners! I recently bought a 2019 Ranger Lariat Super-crew 4x4 w/ the 2.3 eco boost, 10 spd auto transmission with the off road package and the trailer tow package. I plan to pull a 7x16 enclosed 7000 gvwr enclosed trailer and a 4300 pound truck inside approximately 14 hours 900...

Vehicle: 2019 ranger lariat, secondhand, recently purchased, factory tow package. TBC: Redarc tow pro elite ordered from Redarc, not Ford. installed myself with minimal knowledge. Maybe I spliced the wires poorly? Could this cause this? I towed something for the first time in my life...

Many of you will not know about the Alvord dry lake playa. Speed freaks and fans of Jesse Combs do, sadly. There are others that make this trek to a remote SE corner of Oregonand landsailors are among them. It is a rare 12 x 7 miles worth of open flat and mostly smooth surface on the right...

Hi all, looking for some advice for potential tow set up. I’m looking at buying a horse trailer to tow with my 2022 tremor. Trailer is 3800 lbs (empty) but the tongue weight for the particular one I like is listed at 800 lbs. It’s rated higher because there is an extra ramp to unload the horse...

whats up y’all? I’ve got a 22 tremor and I’m hoping to install a 2” level eventually. Preferably the fordrangerlifts one. But I’ve also got aspirations of owning and towing a bow rider. Specifically one that would be 19-22’ and topping out around 4-5k dry. Does anyone have any personal...

Both REDARC units are in stock and available for immediate shipping. ***PM me for forum pricing!

Hello all and happy new year. I have been browsing the forums extensively for what I would need to have the ability to tow the 7,500lbs our trucks are built for. I had a few questions that have popped up during my search and was hoping ya'll could help me out. This is my first truck and my first...

Hello, ranger 5g. I figured starting a "build" thread would be a good place to organize some of my thoughts and maybe meet some like-minded truck people. My vehicular circumstances changed abruptly last year as my pride and joy Xj Cherokee started giving me mechanical trouble that I was no...

?EDIT. That should say Redarc Tow Pro Elite? I wonder how many people got absolutely robbed by the dealerships BEFORE the internet? My local Ford dealer quoted me $900+ to buy and have the Redarc controller installed. They said it was very complex and time consuming and there was the hole they...

Hey everyone My wife and I want to get an rv for the ranger to pull. I would like to hear y’all’s recommendations. Preferably something with a bunkhouse as we have 2 small kids. Also what’s everyone’s setup?

I wasn't sure if this belonged under towing or general since I've got a couple of questions here, so if this needs to be moved, please do so. Bit of a backstory: We got our 2019 XLT FX4 supercrew w/ factory tow hitch back in September with only 10k miles on it, mainly as a replacement for our...

The issue here is many of us have gotten the Ford Performance tune and just recently found out it’s not recommended to tow with. When I ordered my tune there was no statement on their website stating it’s not recommended. I got mine specifically to tow. Yesterday I spoke with Ford Performance...

Bought my 19 ranger April 30, 2020 In anticipation of current trip I added necessary additions for heavy towing use. Red arc oem trailer brake controller and firestone air bag helper springs. Installed ford performance M-9603-REB reprogramming 2 days before leaving at 12K miles. 29ft...

Hi All, I am new to this forum so I apologise if towing discussions are akin to beating a dead horse. Anyway, I recently moved from LA to SLC and towed my wife's Mazda Cx5. I was confident my Ranger could pull it, but I was not expecting it to perform so we'll! My Ranger is a 2020 XL...

Does anyone have experience with the Timbren active off-road active bumps tops? I’m trying to tow with them. I installed the sumo spring that’s rated for 1500lbs, but it absolutely doesn’t work for me. I need something with off-road capability.

Does anyone know if it's possible either by entering the secret menu or another method to access the rear view camera while in drive? This would come in very handy as I quite often have strapped-up loads on the trailer bed and it would be good to keep an eye on it while driving.

Hey guys! I am currently trying to get a list together of everything I am going to need in order to tow in Europe ( Germany) with a non tow packaged Ranger. I just wanted yall's advice and suggestions before purchasing everything. Trailer hitch...
