Yes, I undid the end brackets (hope that makes sense) and placed a 2x4 or 2x6 piece of scrap wood (do not recall the length (4" or 6" max, it is whatever fit)) between the frame (or whatever was solid) as far up to the front of the vehicle to lower the exhaust for painting.
Do not force the...
Installed the Dual Hidden Light Bars 9/25 (40" white (top), 30" amber (bottom) , I just verified this with the lights on). The lights are turned OFF in the photo and I am not good at taking photos so I am guessing that is why the top appears yellow (or maybe there is amber in the top lights for...
Started with a High Heat Primer (do not recall if I did any light sanding first, I may have done a 1000 grit but do not remember) then many layers of the High Heat Ceramic Coating (Flat Black) and painted pretty far up towards the rear axle (not just the tips). Sprayed as many coats as it took...
This may be what you are looking for (top-left corner of photo):
Hope this helps, if I remember correctly we installed the same 3rd brake light.
I just spray painted the heads of the original screws.
Good luck! - Morahn
Awesome customer service and product support from Brit, Dallin and I am sure there is an entire team that we as customers do not see at American Adventure Lab!
Thanks again for supporting the Ranger6g community!
Unpacked the Molle Panels today (finally starting to warm up here) and was surprised to see that the right (passenger side) Bulkhead (Front) Molle Panel is not correct as reported in early January posts by Glisch and others. I assumed (you know what that makes me) that my Molle Panels would not...
ShadowDragon24 is correct that the shims go under the rail cap. For my SE install the shims slid under the rail cap to the front and back of the stake cover hole (not actually occupying the hole, if that makes sense).
Also I think the torque is important (or they would not have mentioned it in...
I installed the Diamondback SE on a 2025 Raptor in December 2025. I did not remove the bed caps to install shims under the bed caps. The shims did take some effort to slide under the bed caps.
I did remove the bed caps for a previous tonneau install to cover the holes/weather proof.
I agree with GLW on the install being way easier than it looks in the instructions. I think I spent more time trying to match the instructions to what was in the box with extra parts that did not fit anywhere.
When I was finished with the install (I lowered headliner), I was somewhat certain it...
The yellow straps clip onto the tie-down anchor.
The clip on the straps on my tonneau did not fit the factory tie-down anchors on the 2025 RR.
My tonneau cover included replacement tie-down anchors, however I just used a quick link (not sure why they are called quick links) to attach.
Placing a straight edge (2x4 or whatever) across the top of the bed rails (passenger side to driver side), what is the measurement from the floor (deck?) of the slide to the bottom of the straight edge?
I am looking to place a fridge on the slide and this measurement will determine if the...
I already traded some of the rivets and am going to hang on to some spares for the next time I break them or lose them in the engine area (which will happen).
I never did find the 2 rivets that fell into the engine area, and I looked all over including on the skid plates.
Just posted: Grill Retainer Rivets Thread with my experience searching for replacement rivets.
As noted above by @Buellsox, I had purchased a couple of mixed sets and there was nothing close to what I needed.
Sharing what I think I know from my search for replacement Grill Retainer Rivets (I did not even know what they were called) for my 2025 Ranger Raptor. Broke/lost several rivets while installing grill lights and needed replacements, but paying dealer prices was kind of ridiculous.
There are at...
I also care, Thanks @Ag3ntC00p3r!
