Nice on the length of wear. I do wonder if the rears wearing faster than the fronts has anything to do with the adaptive cruise control usage (Lariat issue). I've heard that uses the rear brakes more to control following distance.
Or if you are using too much right pedal and it's using brakes to control wheel slip.
Just inside the spokes is still considered “outside”.
It's technically 18.8, so you were nearly out. For whatever reason, in some of the spec documents they round down.
Don’t show her thisUghhhh! I want to finish my fender flare project, but it keeps raining! I don't want to paint in the high humidity or rain. Boooo!
In other news, my wife had off from work yesterday for Juneteenth, but I still had to work (from home), so she took the Ranger to the beach. It's not often I get to see my beloved truck drive away, and I have to say it looks cool as hell!
When she got home, she warned me that she backed into the driveway really close to the garage. When I left for work this morning, I looked at how close she got to the garage and was really surprised. She couldn't have gotten any closer to the garage...
...BECASUE SHE HIT IT!
?
There is a dent in the garage door, and I found that my "shower tube" had been shoved back in the mount all the way up against the glass at the back of the cab. I readjusted the PVC tube off the glass and went to work, and I'll try to knock the dent out of the garage door later.
On my list of things to do to the truck is actually shortening that PVC tube and re-doing the end cab a little better.
HAHAHA I remember this!Don’t show her this
I don't have the adaptive cruise and I have only used the cruise control on a trip to Texas last summer. I don't usually use cruise, even commuting the 53 miles to work everyday....too much traffic!
That color is just beautiful!This is from yesterday after I finished the front half of the truck...
I finished the back half this morning... She looking good. I'll post more pictures in the coming days as it needs to stay dry for another 12 hours....
Did 2 more foam and rinse cycles followed by foam and wash, followed by iron remover, clay, another wash to get off all the iron remover and clay residue. Than a prep wipe down and a 1 step polish to make sure I got all the previous sealents off the paint.
After the polish I did a coat of kamakazi miyabi topped an hour later with kamakazi ism 3.0.
Alot of work, but the results are amazing.
In other news, the pod arrives Friday and we start putting furniture in it, house closes the 28th and we head west July 1....
hmm do you tow a lot or have a lot of weight in the bed? i ask thinking front brakes typically take more of a hit than rear unless a pickup has a load. but thats old school stuff. all these newer trucks are beyond my knowledge
picture of dog required lol.Rear seat delete for a happy pup. Secured in and no movement and a lot of storage now.
I never tow and don't even have a bed liner....so no added weight in the rear. However, I do have a leveling kit on mine that I installed at about 20K and I've been running 1.5 inch wheel spacers since 20K also. Maybe one or the combination of both are what this is about. Very weird though....
