Doesn't look like it bent anything... so adjust it and try again... with tight bolts.

Sure about that?

Check trans fluid engine warm, in park, and running. Once you have the level figured out, you can check it cold not running and file a slight mark for level.

That’s what I thought. Even though I didn’t do that correctly until now. My only concern is that warm, running and in park for long enough resulted in needing another quart beyond the initial quart needed to bring it up. I dunno. Guess I need to get this electrical worked out and test.

Lisa wanted to salvage something of this weekend so tomorrow we are going to tour a cavern and stuff. I got started on the electrical on the Ranger but haven’t got real far yet. Probably Sunday/Monday I’ll mess with the wiring and see if I can’t sort out what’s going wrong. I’m sure everything will be a lot happier on the truck. Seems to me this isn’t exactly a new issue with this truck, that I’ve had problems with this circuit before.

Let the record show that; while I was leading a group on paved roads, at highway speeds, in my 3.0l powered Ranger, I was asked to slow down.

... at least twice.

To be fair 45 in a 25 is a bit fast...

That’s not how I remember it.

Congratulations to Rick, @Bubba Bonanza as our Scavenger hunt Champion. He's the newest member here, less than 1 week, and he devastated the competition. He had 27 points. Next runner up was @85_Ranger4x4 and @Mrs. Eighty Five with 17 points and @97ranger xlt with 14 points. I believe everyone had fun. Thanks for your participation.
