Retired, work is a four letter word.
Anyone with a Roadmaster Invisabrake system want to share their pump vacuum setting? For the Ranger they recommend 65, but that seems light. I need to get a couple of traffic cones and find an empty parking lot to test stopping distance with & without the Ranger.

What setting are you all using for your ranger and invisibrake? My installer set at 80.

No Base Plate needed 😁

Prepping for a coast to coast trip, and came up with this stealth set up.

  • Rough Country Shackle Mount
  • Blue Ox Shackle Adapter

No ugly base plate, D-Rings in place when not being towed.

More to come on this stealth set up. 😉

Just picked this up . Remote battery monitor. https://a.co/d/7Ipefwq

Keeps track of battery, has test and alerts. Pretty cool, and great for making sure the battery doesn't die, or at least without you not knowing.

Hi Folks,

Just towed my Ranger behind our Diesel pusher motor home. Tucson area to Prescott on back roads. Ranger worked perfectly! Toe base plates from Roadmaster. Wiring of brake lights and turn signals worked as planned too! whew!

Best,

I too got the ranger for a toad. Toyota, Chevy, gmc don't offer flat towing.
Made first pull recently from not LA to Branson, MO. Easy peazy.
