What did you do to your 2019 and up Ranger today?

Thats cool

I finished the differential install yesterday and got everything buttoned up underneath the truck. Next is getting the knuckles installed, weather permitting. I have and alignment kit on order that should be here Saturday. I just have to figure out what degrees equals out to in inch measurements.

The shocks also came in the day before. So, those can go on after I'm done monkeying with the front of the truck.

Well, the left side is back together. It was a bit of an adventure. In order for the knuckle to go back on, the wheel bearing MUST be removed from the knuckle. So I had to strip the whole thing down so I could get it bolted back on the truck. Reason being, there is not enough clearance between the end of the CV shaft the the lower control arm to allow the lower ball joint to be inserted into it's hole with the bearing in place. With the bearing out, it wasn't a problem.

Bare knuckle.

Splash shield and brake hold bolted back on.

Wheel bearing assembly, ABS sensor, and wire as well as the tie rod end reinstalled.

Knuckle restored

The rain is in the forecast all day tomorrow. So, it may be more trailer wheel painting. Plus, it's pay day. So, bills need paid.

I’ve stopped paying my bills so I can buy more parts for the Ranger. It’s a disease at this point.
