Got my Pedal Commander installed today. Pretty simple and straight forward, although a bit fidgety for someone with big fingers trying to manipulate those small connectors under the dash.
In Sport mode not only is the throttle opening/response a lot more noticeable, but also the rate at which the throttle closes. Getting a lot more noise from the BOV and afterburn in the exhaust (popping) when I lift quickly.

Poking around underneath the Ranger I found I was missing the driver's side bump stop!! No idea how that happened. After some research and a couple phones calls to Timbren and E Trailer I ordered the Active Off Road Bump Stops. Had my shop install them yesterday. Can't tell any difference empty. Should be as good as the OEMs and hopefully better off road. They look and feel like a quality product. I will have to say the young feller at Timbren wasn't a whole lot of help. I simply stated I don't want helper springs like their SES suspension bump stops. Even asking the the question will the Active Off Road models be AS good as the OEM and I couldn't get a definitive answer even after he put me on hold twice!
Called E Trailer and that guy confirmed what I thought and the conversation lasted maybe 90 seconds!! Kids these days I guess!

My shoulder is finally healed enough to allow me to get some things done. Today's task was changing out the OEM spark plugs.

Brian,
The plugs had 31K on them and looked fine. They did have a little material transfer from the electrode to the strap, but nothing alarming. These were the OEM factory plugs. Main reason I changed them is that I am running a tune and wanted to go a step lower in the heat ranger. Replaced with NGK Iridium plugs.

Copy that, I thought from the picture they looked pretty good.
What tune are you running? Any other performance mods?

4 new tires. Was planning on end of Oct before going to GA, but Wednesday the front tire kicked up a razer in the road and the rear tire caught it. So, tires this weekend. Switched from the Dynapro AT-M to Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 tires with Extra Load rating.

Good call, on going ahead and getting new tires after that happened.

Brian,
I'm running a 5 Star tune. Mods include AFE Charge Tubes and Intake. Rousch Cold Air Intake box, CVF Intercooler, Turbo Smart Dual Port BOV, MBRP Cat back Exhaust System, and a Pedal Commander. She will light the 33" tires up at highway speeds if you get deep enough into the throttle.
