Yep 31's are about all we can fit up in there. How did you level the front end? Those machined aluminum wheels look great. Ford always had some very nice looking factory options wheels, and dang if those don't look exactly like it. Small touches make the suddle difference....and make a big...

So far so good. Sounds nice with the HMI very well engineered. Super fast. Next will be a sub install. It's all diy around here. I will be shopping for a newer type class AB/D 5 channel amp. All the crossover line outs are already there. (all 5 channels). My sub "box" design will require the...

Hey all- The ATOTO S8 standard with Android auto. I pulled the trigger on one of these 7 inch double din sized touch screen thingys. Has the fastest performance of all the "decks" tested. Comes with a 128Gb SSD. 4Gb with LTE. I won't use my SIM card in the darned thing but it flys. Works and...

Rubydist & Eric B- Thanks much for the reply. I remember reading hear about "somebody" doing exactly what I'm discussing. Well there is a whole bunch of good info passing around here & I'm always glad to help out & be helped out. Keep them Rangers rollin rollin! I'll look into the "forscan"...

Hello guys, I am a proud owner of a 07 FX-4 Level 2 with the 4.0 & 5R55E (I believe) and yes it is a pain to always have to punch it to get her back & going again after going through the many round-abouts around here. If only I could adjust the down shift point I believe it would be 3 or 4th...

That 2.8 if you can find one has a dual power band. More like a 2 stroke dirt bike. When you punch it in 3rd gear (5 sp manual -hand shaker) the tires spin. Makes the 2.9 seem like a 4.0, which ain't bad. The main reason I re-purchased a Ranger is mainly because I saw an off road level 2 /...

My solid lifter 2.8 (1895 5 speed manual) was one very fast truck. In creditable power from that motor. Towed a 6,600 lb 1952 3/4 ton chevy truck over the hill (hwy 17) to Santa Cruz. Did have to get down to 2nd gear a couple of times. What a truck! Fast 2wd with the 4wd camber blocks & 15" x 8...

It's crazy watching these demonstrations of simple nature, vise grips, drill & a drywall screw, hammering deep sockets onto any "safe" lugnut marketed. The Advanced Tech. brand looks the best, silly cone looking thing. Thanks Kira. Good idea to have a second socket, real good idea. I did...

I've found it.....and the youtube link too.....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNYIgoah4dk

Thanks everyone. Still looking on P/F's tube channel that outlines the lug nuts, but what a resource, thanks a ton. Talk about "maker" porn. I can just sit back and get educated on all the stuff that matters to me. This Project Farm channel I will send around to my other "farmers" Ha! - Doug

Does anyone have a favorite brand or vendor to purchase a set of tamper proof wheel nuts. These are for my 07 FX4 with the large axles & the Alcoa wheels. It's about time to secure these dudes to where they belong. Mainly because I was (just the other day) at Best Buy the & the door man asks me...

Don't worry about the splinters, I block sanded the cedar. Enjoy friend.

Yes, I am running extended eyelets. It's the only way to have anything out and away from the axle. Found them also at https://www.kartek.com/ for 25% of retail. Crazy deal for an OEM Fox Factory part.

PJ, great question.... Eibach stocked nothing between 700 & 800 lbs. So thinking that the 700 pound spring would be too soft, I went with the 800 pound model. The spring preload is about 1.25" on the shock body. For a "2.5 inch I.D." spring, there must be another manufacture out there that...

The're on their way... Oiled paper packing + I sanded the crate with 33 grit sandpaper 'cuz unclegump wants 33s As compaired to 0 grit sandpaper, which is actually a cinderblock. Works great for "block sanding". -Doug

Thanks Uncle Gump. I'll start in very soon and get these in the mail before the end of the week. We got a bunch of rain yesterday. Actually everything has been flooded now for a month straight, and then we get another 5 inches in an afternoon. My driveway is becoming history. Just finished an 18...

Uncle Gump, they measure, sure deal, 1.09" dia. I see "FA" and the left notation with an arrow. The right bar also shows the "FA", and the right arrow. There was a sticker, but it's long

You got it...It's is one of me00stepside's kits. Very well made. I got mine with no powder coating. -Doug

Hey Lefty, It's all stock except for those headlights, the coilovers & the Chrome Zarape hangers. I get comments at the gas station, folks honking, and I just turned down an offer for $12,800, paid $7000 three years ago. :))

Grump, I'll put together a 1x4" wood box & use pirateship.com. They weigh 12 lbs ea. $35 shipped UPS ground.
