  1. Average Gas Mileage of 25.7 mpg

    Being an Australian entry, that would have been for either the 2.0 I4 diesel or the 3.0 V6 diesel engine. At US25.7mpg that equates to about 9.1 lt/100km so I'd guess it is the 2.0 diesel. There is absolutely no way it would be the Raptor and we don't get any other petrol engines. My Raptor...
  2. Ranger Raptor Ground Clearance vs The Competition

    Nice bit of information - thanks for posting. ROW Ranger Raptors are quoted at 850mm fording depth which is in line with the 33.5" in the above data. The air intake is at the top of the grill facing forward so I wouldn't be going for the bow-wave method of water crossing otherwise you'll drown...
  3. aluminum body

    I'd like to know what your source is for that information as the ramifications could be profound for ROW owners who are looking to save some weight or who are hitting their GVM. Honestly, I'd be VERY surprised if there is any difference between ROW and NA panel materials but anything is...
  4. aluminum body

    It's not impossible but I'd VERY surprised if there is any difference.
  5. aluminum body

    The hood, tailgate and fenders on my Raptor are all steel not aluminium - either that or they have now invented magnetic aluminium...
  6. Seems I really like my Ranger Raptor

    There are quite a few options for "bull-bars" available in Australia that are designed to take a winch and lights. In reality, most are just bumper replacements and mounting lights and a winch are about the only things they are good for. I am yet to find any that I like enough to actually pay...
  7. 2024 Ranger Workshop Manual

    OK, so I haven't tried it yet, but it looks like the service manual is available online at Motorcraft: https://www.motorcraftservice.com/Purchase/ViewProduct It's expensive for an annual subscription but for 48 hours it is almost reasonable assuming you can save a few diagrams.
  8. Raptor Exclusives?

    Eventually you will be able to add trail turn assist to any of the Rangers... I can see some of the parameters to enable it for the Raptor when I inspect the configuration using Forscan but it will no doubt take someone a bit of messing around to get the configuration to work.
  9. Raptor Exclusives?

    Yes, you are quite correct, every other Ranger has a 3,500kg tow capacity while RR is 2,500kg. Payload and GVM are also down accordingly - I think my RR has around 700kg payload once GVM and kerb weight are considered. If you favour load carrying capacity over off-road capability then I would...
  10. Raptor Exclusives?

    The RR has completely different suspension components front and rear. Rear is coil sprung with multi-links vs leaf springs for every other model Front has longer control arms and hence greater wheel travel Overall the track is in the order of 100mm wider than any other Ranger even though the...
  11. 23 Raptor Brake upgrade

    You will need to do some YouTube searching but I did see something about 6 months ago where someone did a brake upgrade on their next-gen RR - sorry not a very useful response I know. Love your profile pic.
  12. Newbie White raptor

    Snap! Car looks great in white with the sticker pack. You'll find this forum far more informative and manageable than all those FakeBook groups which are just absolute garbage. Weekend in the Victorian High Country with mates:
  13. 2.5 Diesel Transmission

    Sorry to hear that John. Unfortunately this is a forum for the Next-Gen Ranger (2022 onwards) that no longer use the 2.5lt Diesel and also use the 10 speed auto. I'm not sure you are going to have much luck chasing the information you need here. All the best with your mission.
  14. rough ride on smooth roads particularly from the rear, tyres out of round?

    I can't help you other than to say that there was a guy on one of the Australian FakeBook groups who had an issue with a manufacturing fault that meant that his car was on a permanent tilt. I think it might have been a faulty shock... That could also be your problem. You could try to buddy it...
  15. White Ranger Raptor - Journal

    Snap! I also have white with the sticker pack. Love it. I love your wheels. Perfect size and offset. In Aus all the CUB's are putting low offset (+20, +0 etc.) wheels on which are not only beyond what is legal (+30 is the legal limit) but they stick out past the fenders making things even...
  16. Fuel Guage incorrect display

    Vey odd that the calibration has been lost. It could be a mechanical issue (problem with the fuel sender unit) or it could be software related - if so you could try taking a look at ForScan which is a program for interacting with your Ford via the OBD2 port. People are fitting long range tanks...
  17. A few of my thoughts/issues with my new Raptor

    @Stitsch1618 - soft reset = brilliant! Thanks for that. I have my "Raptor" mode set to 2H, Sport transmission, Sport steering and shocks and Baja exhaust. When I want to quickly give it "the beans" just a quick double press of the "R" button and I'm ready to go. When I'm finished, I just turn...
  18. Dual battery secondary inverter

    Yep. Roof top tents are popular for the north end. Sleeping in a swag or tent on the ground at the beach up there has proven to be "challenging" for some unlucky campers.
  19. 2024 Ranger Workshop Manual

    Well, that's not really correct as I have had my Raptor for around 6 months now and 6G Rangers have been in customer hands now for around 18 months. Thanks @goalieThreeOne. I do have the auxiliary switch pack but it is overkill for wiring a UHF and dashcam in the cabin. The neatest solution...
  20. 2024 Ranger Workshop Manual

    Inspired by the earlier thread of almost the same name... Does anyone have any leads as to where I can get detailed workshop information on the Ranger? What I'm really keen on (right now) is a detailed wiring diagram and diagram of cable runs throughout the car. And no! I don't mean the "body...
