Show us your 2019-2020 Ford Ranger


I traded my 3 yr old Raptor for a 2020 FX4 Lariat. Did it to save some money for a couple of years. But maybe the Ranger will grow on me?

Grabbers are loud, obnoxiously so, but as an all terrain tire I like them. I would not buy them again for a truck that spends most of the time on pavement, but for something that spends mos of their time on dirt roads or trails I think they would be great.

Good to know. I will be racking up a lot of freeway miles.
‘thanks
 
If you're doing a lot of highway driving, you can't beat the BFG KO2s!
 
They're going on mine

Tires are often round.

Let me know what you think if you beat me to it. I lost faith in BFG a few years ago but you never know. They may come back
 
Lose faith with BFG or the KO2s specifically?
I've been running KO2s on my last 2 trucks for 5 years now. They're amazingly quiet on pavement, and excellent traction off-road.
 
Made my own "kit".

Hand cut new grooves on a set of FX4 front shocks to lower the spring seat 1.25"

Had the rear springs re-arched by 3"at a local spring shop. Used 3 1/8" spring perches, new 2 1/2" u-bolts and a set of Jeep spring plates to flip the axle. With the new spring plates on top of original spring perches, used the u-bolts to dial in <.5 degrees of pinion angle and locked the axle into place.

Added a pair of early 2000's Nisan Frontier Rancho RS9000 shocks with Amazon sourced 14mm x 16mm aluminum tube cut to 40mm for the bushing mounts.

Final result was a bit low in back, used a set of Amazon sourced 1" lift spring shackles for the final rear height

Replaced the OEM foam bump stops with 600 lbs/in Timbren rubber springs spaced about 1" above the upper spring plate.

Set the Rancho's to max stiffness setting and am VERY pleased with ride and stance. OEM spring rates, the FX4 front shocks soften the front harshness and the Rancho's keep the back end under control.

OEM FX4 rear springs have a lot more arch than 2/4 WD springs and might be an option for the needed 2.5" - 3" "lift"needed for the axle flip.

Love to see some photo's of this...

This sounds interesting. I'd love to see pics.

2019. Just bought it and had it shipped from Texas. It’s exactly what I was looking for except the camper top is a little small. Anybody wanna buy the camper top? It’s pretty sweet. Includes light and carpet headliner
