  1. Why Is This So Ugly? (seat belt cover)

    A lot of Fords modern rubbery plastic is nice a black from factory but oxidizes over time and gives off this white residue. If you simply take some trim shine or spray wax and rub it, it will return to the original color.
  2. ACT Temps

    The intake air temp reading is prior to the intercooler, its measured right after the air box before it goes into the turbo.
  3. Which Ranger Mod Left You Impressed… Or Totally Disappointed?

    I removed my front sway bar entirely (I also did a couple other small things for ground clearance purposes), and I was expecting it to cause massive sway issues on the road and provide a slightly better amount of articulation. Luckily I found almost no extra noticeable sway on the road and a...
  4. 2" or 2.5" - Front end lift to level?

    I'd say in my opinion that having all of your alignment angles as close to the factory specs is best practice for those who don't off road much, as for camber for off road driving it will depend a lot on what type of off roading you do. If you are not doing much higher speed driving off road...
  5. 5 months of ownership

    Ive had my ranger for 1 year 3 months and I have 30k miles.
  6. 2" or 2.5" - Front end lift to level?

    Thanks! They are not Bronco takeoffs though! They are the ranger raptor rims and tires from a 2025 model year, its the option rim with the bead-lock rims/rash guards. 285/70R17 KO3's. They fit great with no spacers, clearance to the front knuckle is extremely tight (less than 1/2") but they...
  7. 2" or 2.5" - Front end lift to level?

    As I don't see anyone else mentioning that they did a 2" lift, I have a 2024 FX4 2.3L with a 2" front lift. I l am happy with the decision, I didn't want a perfectly level height front and rear, I wanted to maintain some rake so when I tow or load the bed its not squatting in the rear too much...
  8. DEALER TECH 2024 FORD RANGER XLT BUDGET BUILD

    I must have a super heavy foot, plus yes the various mods I've done do decrease efficiency, I have been trying to baby the throttle and I've gotten my fuel economy up to 18mpg but can't get it any higher lol oh well it is what it is.
  9. Anyone bash in their exhaust yet off-road?

    Yeah I put a nice dent in my muffler and the cross bars up front have been smashed pretty good, I bent the ends flat and repainted it flat back so it wont rust on me. My front skid plate has taken a major bashing too so I've actually doubled up the front skid plate to add additional rigidity.
  10. Fueling Thoughts

    Don't know if I fully agree with your statement about it not making any difference unless towing heavy racing necessarily. Despite what I am about to say, we would need dyno testing done with the correct parameters to show any measurable difference between 87 and 91/93 on a stock tune for...
  11. My first Ford ever.

    Still kick myself for not getting a white ranger, every time I see one I die a little more inside, jelly for sure.
  12. An Easy Mod - Decal Removal

    I did the same! I think it looks way better without decals. Reminds me of one of my favorite jokes told by Daniel Tosh, "No matter what the sticker on the back of your vehicle says, know that it reads 'I'm poor'" lol
  13. New Ranger Raptor

    I love this wheel, color combo with the minimal graphics, very subtle. Welcome to the 6g forum.
  14. Black Residue from Muffler

    Yes this is completely normal. Nothing to worry about, though it can be a bit frustrating if you park on a concrete driveway like myself.
