Looks great!Got some red letters for the front and back. Also, I painted the tow hooks red to match. The Obsidian is coming along.
Thank ya Brian
What flares are those? And the side steps? They look great!I picked True North up at the Spa (Toronto Downtown Ford) - Recall 21C25 and The Works (it’s hard to say “no” at $99.99). I could have sold it while it was parked out front. No inventory there to speak of and the guys across the way at Toyota were eye-balling it.
There was an unexpected item on the invoice…?
Warranty on a burnt out bulb? Seriously? I figured that would be considered normal wear and tear and not covered. I like pleasant surprises. Another reason I love this truck!
I’m treated very well at this dealership and it’s within walking distance from my home. ?? I recommend it to any other members in Toronto - it’s at Queen and the DVP.
Thanks very much Preston. They are Bushwacker Bolt-on Style Fender Flares and Westin HDX Drop Nerf Steps.
"Westin HDX Drop Nerf Steps" for the win! I like them because they seem to be about the lowest step out there. At first I was a bit "meh" on the look, but it's grown on me and, most importantly, they work well for my hulking stature and my wife's bum leg. Surefooted and easy to "find" when stepping out. But pricey, no doubt about that (stainless steel ones are $$).
I got stuck under the frame on my 08 colorado years ago.
@RedDakooter05 Quite the mental image.
@subquark It seems this is what the forum is all about, helping each other spend money.
@dano42 Yeah, would be awesome if they did work with the Bedslide.
@ControlNode It's not for everyone for sure, I doubt I'll miss the extra room. Sounds like you have a good plan of your own.I like they idea, not the loss of 4.5 inches of height, nor the extra +70lbs of load for it.
2 tarps, rope and some lube, and aside from the mess, it's a win-win.

Got a full pic of the expedition?not super Ranger oriented other than I drove mine 100 miles round trip for full front late 2nd gen raptor Control arms and spindle for dirt cheap. I will be throwing it into my 2nd gen Expedition. I LOVE how ford makes things so easily interchangeable between makes and models. Ranger will get same treatment once I'm able to find a set of bronco lowers.
That looks factory- made, or maybe nicer! Wow...The curse of custom fabrication strikes again. As usual it takes about three revisions of an idea for me to finally arrive at something that looks like it's going to turn out acceptable.
I did not even make it through the completion of the 2nd revision before I decided to move on to the 3rd.
