I had a hood protector on my 2019 ranger (different version of this) and that 3m tape holds well. Like all 3m tape accessories, you need to remove any top coatings (ceramic etc) with alcohol. But only where the tape will attach to surface. I actually ordered this unit mid summer from Ford and...
And fwiw..... I did not reuse the oem bolts..... I just used some bolts from the local hardware store that had socket style heads for much easier install and any future removal. And no locktight... Lol
I've found thru trial and error that pics work best on sites like this of you edit/resize pics until they are several sizes smaller than a phone's camera resolution.
I keep this rolled up in the bed until I put the rear seat down. Fits nicely for only $32. I also got the 2023 ranger rear headrests that flip forward, so I don't have to remove them to put the seats down.
Just went out to garage, and verified that my mx4 completely clears where the uprights would mount on the rails. You need to verify that the actual rack has 16 inches of clearance above the rails for the panels to clear. Good luck with finding something. Hope this info helps. Fwiw I like the...
Mine has tried to go from 4A normal into 4H baja a couple times in 15k of driving. Doesn't actually hurt anything, but definitely catches your attention. Nothing even close to touching the dial. Service manager couldn't pull any codes, but said his full size f150 does something similar when in...
It's probably just showing that it was turned to 4L without actually going into 4L. You would feel your head jerk if it really went into 4L. Still a pain
Since no one has "cracked" the 2025 explorer st, and the 24+ raptors, an ecu swap is the only available option other than the ones available thru Ford Performance. That is a factual statement. Those not wanting Ford Performance tune or an ecu swap will be waiting, maybe for quite a while...
I really try to stay out of online drama, and give everyone the benefit of the doubt. But really, your statement is totally wrong on so many levels. Even the group that works closely with Ford (Livernois) has not yet accessed the most recent ecu encryption. Please be open to the validity of...
@Goosetuned thanks for your posts and the information about your tunes. I especially enjoyed your info on the limits on using ethanol with the bronco and ranger raptor stock fuel systems. I have a local friend deep into the explorer st race world, and he was warning me, based on their stock...
And for those getting into the #s, the accepted drivetrain loss on modern auto transmissions is around 12 to 15%, based on a dyno jet vs published oem. Results from a mustang dyno will show a somewhat higher % loss. But really, dynos are best used for tuning, and for comparing before and after...
They gave me a good price on 2019 ranger also. They are more than fair and honest. I like their service department also (ask for Brady if you ever use them for service). And it actually was someone else with the white RR, mine is shelter green. While I'm seldom over in Platte City, I'm...
.... Once again, an example of it's a small world. ? I got mine last April from Chuck Anderson also. I actually saw your RR in the showroom a week or so ago. The owner, Mike Anderson, indicated he was considering buying it for himself to drive him and dog back and forth to his place on the...
