MI Ranger - Daily/Work/Play

I honestly cant remember who it was but I don't think it was a Canadian. Take a look at the original line and the first letter in each one. I honestly never even thought about it until it was brought up. So John (I cant think of his screen name now) edited it for me.

Ah, now I understand it completely. It even goes a bit further than those three letters when I think more about it and the reason is the brand involved.

When I was just starting my career, I worked in the marketing department of Rothmans, Benson & Hedges (I know, I’m evil and going straight to hell) and research showed that the KOOL brand was very popular with the same demographic that would be the most offended by the message hidden in that t-shirt. That original shirt/meme (I know you didn’t create it) may have been created as a dog whistle. Here’s to John for straightening things out.

I decided to keep tweaking with things… I ordered Fox 2.0 Coilovers (10-12weeks out from shipping) the spacer not helping the ride and not being height adjustable isn’t going to cut it for me. Honestly, it didn’t make a noticeable change positive or negative on the front end feel, but with the sales on suspension right now, I jumped on it.

With the constant weight I keep in the bed, im sitting 1/2” TOO high in the front. ? The Fox’s come set at 2” which should level me out… I’ll adjust if I have to, but it should make me closer to level. Today I installed 1000lb SumoSprings. The blue ones. They install in no time and I just got done with my test drive on them. They just make barely make contact with my standard weight, so didn’t fix any sag unfortunately.

The rear feels slightly firmer actually, but LESS harsh. The RC N3 shocks helped, but once I was into the bumpstop it got harsh quickly. The SumoSprings dial it down and take the edge off. Even more noticeable is when hitting something unevenly- I was actually intentionally hitting large potholes and grinning- or large speed bumps like my lovely neighborhood has everywhere. ??‍I would 100% recommend these and will do this again on any truck that’s not bagged. Very happy overall with the rear end now. Now it’s a waiting game for the front!

In the meantime I’m going to try to understand ForScan a little more and adjust for my tire size. Also purchased a SCT Tuner with three 5Star custom tunes… 87 daily, 93 daily, 93 performance. Sent my info in and waiting for my tunes!!
