What did you do to your Ranger Raptor Today?

Also, if it is not too much of an ask.
Can you share some images on how the new high clearance beams looks with the wheel in full turn and what that small section you need to trim???????

Installed Rokblokz mud flaps. These are the XL, but I did have to trim a section from the inside of the front flaps. Before I put the front flaps on I trimmed the little black piece from the bottom inside of the flare with a dremel Not the most elegant way, but it worked. If I wasn't installing mud flaps, I would have bent back slightly that thin peice of aluminum behind the peice I cut and think that would have resolved the slight rubbing. When I put the mud flap on I used a soft mallet to push that thin peice back with the mud flaps on it to make sure it wouldnt catch. Took it out for a quick ride with some tight turns and no rubbing so far.

Altiq light bar just showed up so will install that this weekend!

This really HELPFUL!!!
I am following your line.

Now, i’ll just wait for the adjustable RPG collar to be available, and replace the crash bar with a high clearance (this idea of yours is clutch!).

any plans on reinforcing the tie bars?
whats your opinion on it?

I hadn't considered it yet. There is a guy on here called BigMeatsBronco that has done alot of cool work with Broncos and he's started a Ranger project recently.

I spent the last few days pondering adding ambient lighting to the front cup holders after I added ambient lighting to rear seat footwells. I added rear seat ambient lighting and cup holders to my Bronco Raptor and took all of the parts off in anticipation the Ranger Raptor would be similar. Everything worked out great, the only difference is the Ranger Raptor has orange ambient lighting and the Bronco Raptor was all Ice Blue. I think it still looks good as the shifter is ice blue and the parking brake along with other switches. Cup Holder is not perfect, but better fit than on the Bronco. Wire harness was from JHForman and I used parts/instructions on Bronco6G Forum.

Hauled a half yard of dirt today. Truck was Carolina squatting pretty good. Still had a bit of suspension left. Not much dirt to put the truck (probably) over payload. ?

Blacked out the Ford emblem to match the Raptor emblem.

Where you get the rear emblem from?

btw
what tire pressure do you keep your 35’s on?

The Ford emblem? It’s just good ol plasti dip. Peels way from every where but the ford logo. Turned out amazing in person. Then I just put some hybrid ceramic wax over the top to of the plasti dip after 12 hours to give it a satin finish.

Thanks for the info. That's cheaper than buying it with the same results.

Yes and you don’t have to mess with the camera. Just stick a piece of tape over the camera lens.
