I don't need a 6" bed as a work truck, but I do haul stuff that needs the space a 6" bed has. I also want the longer bed for a camper. The 5" bed just doesn't have enough space for supplies needed for the type of lengthy trips I do in remote areas. I don't need a SuperCrew for that either...
Stainless steel used on exhausts, especially OEM, is typically lower grade SS. It will corrode on the surface but it takes a very long time to rust through. I have a Gibson cat back system that I installed on my 02 Ranger shortly after buying it new. I have close to 300K miles on it now and...
That is amazing that no one else was there. It is usually crawling with many vehicles. I don't go there anymore because of that. Apparently, it was too hot for the normal crowd that goes there.
Glad your RRapter performed as it should.
I and quite a few other people are waiting for a Supercab. If Ford doesn't build one in 2025, I may be looking for a 5G FX4 and build my own Tremor equivalent.
I plan to install air bags on the rear axle when I eventually get a 6G Ranger. I doubt the 23 kit will work on the 24 Ranger with the change in suspension geometry. I am sure it will not be long before a kit comes out for the 24 though. I will not be in the market for it until 2025, so that...
There are different types of off-road wheeling. The Raptor is more for going high speeds across the desert. That is where the Watts linkage works really well. As the rear suspension is moving up and down, you don't get the side movement of the axle like you can get with a panhard bar type...
The Line-X liner looks to have a rougher texture than I have on my 02. Maybe that is because mine has worn smoother over the the almost 300K miles I have on it. The Rhino liner also looks rougher than I remember it being when I was comparing the two.
As I recall the Rhino was better for anti...
Still liking the color. I have my color picked to fill in that that square. Now, all I need is squares to fill in that will give me a Supercab, 2.7L powered Tremor. :like:
In that video, I am still seeing a light color but more of the blue hue. Then again, I am color blind for light green so that doesn't mean much. I am beginning to feel it is mislabeled as gray, which is a good thing for me. It seems more like an off-white. I certainly like the Cactus Gray...
I am liking Cactus Gray more and more as I see photos of it. It doesn't look that light on Ford's order website. I am seeing that greenish blue hue too.
Thanks for the help.
That mustang looks almost white. If that is the true color, I am all for it. What I really want is a an off-white or toned down white. A grayish white will work for me.
Thank you all for the responses. It is helpful to me. It sounds like I will need to find one with that color to determine for myself if I like it or not. What I have seen so far makes me think I will like it. I am still a long way off before I purchase, so I have plenty of time find a Ranger...
I am trying to decide on a color for my next Ranger. I initially wanted White but I have decided it is a little too bright for my taste. I don't want a metallic color because it is too difficult to touch up rock chips and look decent. I am not that partial to gray but Cactus Gray is the...
You are 100% right. I have not dealt with turbo charged engines, only N/A engines. I forgot the turbo not only increase compression it also pushes air through the ports. Sure improving flow of the ports can help but improving the turbos will have more effect on power. Of course, getting the...
After racing with SCCA for 32 years, I can assure that flowing heads (not just porting) is where power is generated. However, that also needs better flowing intake and exhaust to make it work and it is important to have those tuned together. I never worked with a turbo but I am sure all of...
I am still waiting for a 2.7L V6 powered Tremor in a Supercab. If they make that, I don't care about the amenities that come with it. What ever it has, I will adapt. I don't see an advantage of push button start but will take it if that comes with it.
A forward looking camera would be nice...
