I bought my 2023 Ranger about 4 weeks ago and found this forum shortly after. First off, I love my new truck and I really appreciate the wealth of information contained on this site. In the past two weeks I’ve installed the tailgate assist, changed the side markers to the smoked Morimotos, installed Ford mud flaps on the front and rear, installed the Ford performance grill, changed the stock bov to the Turbo Smart dual port and installed the Mishimoto intercooler tubing kit. I’d like to level the truck, add hood lift supports and install a cat back exhaust before I take a break and save my bank account. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

mine were barely finger tight... ford quality lol.

Funny enough, I took my bump stops off to get clearance for my impact and they came right off with a little elbow grease. Everyone else seems to have hell with those.

Got my bed rack installed into the T-slots of my retractable cover.

The crossbars are a bit long so I'm going to trim them down to fit, but I wanted to make sure all was well before I cut it and couldn't return it.

Then it'll be time to mount up the Roofnest that I picked up from @puda. Thanks again BTW :like:

Thanks!

I built it from a 4x6 utility trailer to match my WJ, which I still kinda miss.

Here it is in progress with my old RTT on it.

Finally got the Prinsu Rack mounted
Looks awesome! Been considering a prinsu or JCRoffroad rack. Look like similar design and quality. How difficult was the install?

Has anyone ever attempted to install a front end leveling kit without removing the entire strut? Compress the spring in place enough to accomplish the job?

You don’t have the room to do it safely.
