Ok... I know I'll probably be shunned for this...

Damn man... You found a nice mud pit to sink yourself in. That sucks.
I haven't the slightest idea what WOT means.

I wouldn't need anything too big. Something a little bigger than stock maybe. What is stock, 14"? I think that's what's on my Ranger. In all reality, the only time I'd use it as a 4x4 would be in the snow, and maybe camping.

So I replaced the fuel filter in that Jimmy today, it was clogged as hell. Didn't notice a big difference yet though. Have to wait and see after I've driven it a bit yet. Going to tune it up probably over the weekend and see what that does.

Well, fuel filter hasn't seemed to make a difference with the fuel consumption... This thing is getting horrible mileage. I was told I didn't need to reset the computer after the filer was replaced, but maybe I should anyway.
Can anyone tell me... Would a weak alternator cause all of the lights to sort of flicker? It's not very noticeable, until you're sitting still staring at them and they sort of pulsate. It doesn't do it with the engine turned off, plus the battery doesn't seem to have a great charge when the engine's shut off, although it's brand new.

Yes, voltage regulator inside the alternator to be specific. The old c-120/130 alternators were infamous for that. Never jump start a vehicle with that alternator. The battery needs to be fully charged or the regulator gets fried. Improper battery voltage could cause some of the other problems as well.

I would LOVE a crew cab ranger. Even the extended cab is really too small for more than two people.

Thanks for the advice MP, I'll have Auto zone test it out.
