What did you do to your Ranger today?

Very nice! Whats that little black car we see ?

My Supercharged 1993 Miata LE. Bought it 1993 with 3,000 miles on it. I've got the Hard Top and Tonneau cover to go with it. Great little driver. It sticks in the curves, and has 50/50 weight balance.

Garage kept and nary a crack in the dash or other plastic interior pieces. Added a Momo Race Steering wheel sans airbag. Figured one airbag isn't gonna make much difference in a car this size if I'm hit or roll it.

Converted the headlights from those big popup single bulbs to the dual headlight with angel halo rings.

33 years old! My how time flies by.

67,000 miles on it. It's my weekend fall and spring fun car

Very nice, everyone deserves a fun car. Mine is a 1968 Mustang with a 408 stoker.

Packed it for next Road trip. Heading up to PA for annual bow hunting opener. Heading out tomorrow. First night camping in WV near the PA border. Might try to get a few hours of fly fishing in if that creek I spotted is big enough

Then a week in PA at my buddy’s place. He sent me a few trail cam pics for motivation…

Nothing because FedEx delivered my lights and side vents to the wrong house 🥲

I have the FPP tuner and my truck has to have premium now so I got some stickers from Amazon for the fuel door. No sense taking chances on someone not knowing any better and putting regular in it. Cheap insurance. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09NL4VGQQ?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

Ordered me some, great idea.

I installed a new set of chase lights today. A guy designed and 3d printed the housing to work around these lights. I need to change the flash pattern but... I already worked on install and wiring for 4 hours today. Wiring was a bear because I had to pull my old chase lights, which were just double sided taped to the top of the cap.

There is a way to slide the wiring for the Wolfbox camera through the housing and use some double sided tape to stick it to the bottom. I will do that another day. It would take a long, long time to undo my wiring job to it's current location. Turns out, I wire for keeps...

Well, I finally got around to downloading and sending my module files to Livernois Motorsports for my tune. Went with 87 Octane Tow and Performance options as all I am looking for is better transmission shift algorithms. I'm hoping the Ford Low RPM High gear lugging strategy will now be a thing of the past.

Guess I'll know in the next few days.

Technically this was Sat lol.

Took my Ranger to my buddy's back yard shop and we tackled the Eibach stage 2R pro-truck kit. Having never did any work like this on anything other than VW's it was nice to have his help. A lot easier than I was thinking. Rides so much better now.

Which method did you use on the use on the front? Lower wishbone or upper ball joint? I still haven't installed my fronts and plan to get on it this fall. I'm leaning towards the lower method as it looks simpler.

I'm replying to my own entry. I got same day service! Livernois turn around for my tunes were less than 3 hours! Amazing Service! Going out to install the tune on the truck now!

I loved the 87 performace (not soft shift) I think you will like it!

I requested 87 and Tow. My options were were on the box after installing the files are listed as 87-93 Performance and Tow Eco.

I loaded the 87-93 Performance tune, then performed the 10R80 Adaptive Learning Drive Cycle. Just got back. I'm not noticing much of a difference. It still skips 2nd most of the time and it still holds high gears too long at low engine RPMs. I'll contact them tomorrow to discuss. I got my smooth shifts 90% back after I completed the Learning Cycle.

I didn't see a soft shift option... Will call about that too.
