Thanks. If width is good and covers well enough all around for the RR then it meets my needs while I look for my specific need.

Got my RR back today.
Clear bra on the nose, and rear fender bulges.
‘Running boards now removed, the belly has been vinyl wrapped and the Ford belly protection moldings installed. Just FYI turned out the belly moldings fit perfect on the bottom of the cab, but the front fender pieces had to be custom trimmed to fit the Raptor front fenders.
Ford needs or should liable that kit not for Raptors.

Also got the Australian from headlight bezels installed, they arrived last minute today.

added cheap amazon bed cover this weekend

added more photos to show fitment. not complaining for only $150

Got the same tonneau, and fit exactly the same. Only issue with it is the clamps aren't truly vertical like they are supposed to be, and I needed to cut the rail caps to clamp to the actual bed rails. Otherwise there is no flapping at highway speed and it does what it's supposed to do. Not a bad deal for $150.

I just squeezed them together with the supplied felt protectors.

Nice, I got them for front and rear. Really tie in with front grill and they look good. Rear set makes tail lamps look good too.

Got the start stop eliminator installed, along with my Raptor marker lights in the grill.
Also installed my new BW hitch.

Got my personalized plate in today.

How is the fit on all the anti rattle pads? Worth it?

These rubber pads came in today.
‘Lots of pieces to the kit.
‘I figured out where all but e of the pieces were meant to go.

These are the three pieces I never did figure out what they were intended for.
I ended up cutting the bigger one to fit into the bottom of the console.
‘Still not great but should work.

That’s an expensive and great hitch! Slap a lockable pin on that hitch before it walks off!

Thanks !
Yea, I was planning to get one ordered for it today.
The one I had on hand was a lot longer than what I wanted on there.

What size shank is the hitch for the RR? Surprisingly that's not obvious information on Ford's website etc. Picking my RR up next week and want to have it ready to go to the lake with a hitch!

It is a standard 2" shank.
The one I installed was a 2" that was rated up to 10K gross trailer weight.
Truck is only rated for 5k or something like that so, it should be plenty stout for what any Ranger can handle, or any full-size half ton really should ever be pulling.

Just a good rule of thumb, is you won't see 2.5" or 3" shanks on anything but HD 3/4 ton/ 2500+ class trucks and up.

Thanks for the response! Yeah I'm coming from an F250 and Silverado 2500 so I figured it was smaller but wanted to make sure my order was correct up front. Thanks and great looking truck!

The curved ones look like they fit the trucks with the dash cup holders.
