  1. New From AAL: American-Made Badland Jack Mount (1.5 Ton)

    Cool product, do you have any recommendations on how/where to install this in a Ranger bed without some kind of drawer/rail system?
  2. Roll-up bed cover and bed rack.

    As long as you have a little clearance around the stake pockets, the tall American Adventure Lab rack works. That's what I use with my Bak X4S.
  3. Let’s Talk Extended Service Plans / Warranty For Our Trucks

    The cost of the same warranty goes up significantly as the vehicle gets older, so its best to have a good plan for how long you want to keep the vehicle. I paid $2100 for my ESP and Granger has that same warranty listed at $3200 now. Even if you rolled the warranty into a finance plan it would...
  4. Clunk from rear end on acceleration. (Differential Replacement)

    Just wanted to document an issue here that I hadn't seen posted. Very early production 2024 Raptor. Started noticing a clunk feeling in the drivetrain when accelerating from a stop around 45k miles. Dealership noted the issue, reset the transmission adaptation. Didn't really do anything. It was...
  5. What portable power station do you carry?

    For camping I have a 400w Ego inverter that lets me use the ~800wh of batteries I already owned for my lawn equipment.
  6. Truck bed cover options. I’m torn between two.

    Assuming the pictures on the Ford branded rolling cover are right, the Bak X4S has much slimmer mounting clamps.
  7. Ford Racing T1 Specs

    Dampers on a race truck are also going to be replaced/rebuilt every 200-1000 miles depending on the race. Its not mentioned but I'd be willing to bet the T1 has external hydraulic bump stops, which go along way in protecting the base damper from issues caused by bottom out. I had my dampers...
  8. Lincoln T6 Bronco-based SUV Coming in '29

    Interesting. I would have loved for Ford to bring the Everest over here. If they offered an Everest FX4 in the states, I probably would have bought that instead of the Raptor. I think moving units at Lincoln Branding/Pricing is going to be a hard sell for Ford. I think they would need to...
  9. Anyone replace ride height sensors on Raptors yet?

    And for anyone that needs to do the front sensors, Levittown Ford confirmed the part numbers were flipped. It should be updated on their website, but I saw the same flip on some other part retailer websites. MB3Z-3C097-H -Passenger Front Sensor MB3Z-3C097-J - Driver Front Sensor
  10. Pissed at Ford Engineers!!!

    Its a sensor linking massive suspension components that see enormous forces. Even if it was metal it would break if you put any of the suspension's forces into it. I'm surprised it gave you errors, my front sensor was broken for who knows how long and never gave me any codes.
  11. C&D 10k Mile test RR Picks up 2/10ths from Break-in and Cold Weather

    I'd bet that 10k miles worth of wear on the KO3 is good for some improvement in the 1/4 as well.
  12. Anyone replace ride height sensors on Raptors yet?

    Anyone with a newish Raptor happen to be able to grab part number for me? Looking for the part numbers listed on the white tag taped to the front right (passenger) ride height sensor? Looking for this engineering part number highlighted below (wraps around the part) (this is from the...
  13. Stupid question - cell phone holder.

    The Proclip mount is great. Apparently they don't sell the mount that holds the OEM Apple Magsafe pucks anymore. That was my preference because 3rd party wireless chargers always seem to overheat the phone. Maybe its better now that magsafe has been integrated into the Qi2 standard.
  14. Anyone replace ride height sensors on Raptors yet?

    No idea really. Suspension is completely stock. I had a shop rebuild the shocks and they pointed out that the sensors were broken. Half of me wonders if they accidentally broke them during the shock removal, but I don't have any way to know for sure. They offered to replace them for the cost of...
  15. Anyone replace ride height sensors on Raptors yet?

    Somehow I've managed to break both of my passenger side ride height sensors. No codes or anything thrown, but one broke the arm off the sensor and the other snapped on the linkages. Took it to the dealership and they wanted $200 for a diagnosis and said they didn't expect warranty would cover...
  16. New Product - Ford Ranger & Ranger Raptor 10" Tall Bed Rack RAIL System (American Adventure Lab)

    What I ended up doing was threading an eyebolt into the rear bed rail attachment points. Then I ran a cam strap through the wheels of the bike, looping it around the wheel on each bike. Made for a very secure and stable solution. Using some cheap Amazon fork mounts, this was by far the cheapest...
  17. Why not just leave it in 4A for daily?

    🤷‍♂️ I swear I read early in the release cycle on Ranger Raptor that it had disconnecting hubs.
  18. Why not just leave it in 4A for daily?

    The front axles disconnect at the hubs when you're in 2WD. AC Compressor clutch is going to be either on or off at all times except the fraction of a second while its engaging. The Ranger doesn't have a torque split display, but some other Fords do. My wife's Bronco Sport has one and you can...
  19. Why not just leave it in 4A for daily?

    MPG and clutch wear. 4A uses an electronically controlled clutch to engage the front wheels. Anytime the 4A torque request to the front wheels isn't 0/50% its going to be slipping the clutch. In practice its probably fine, most AWD crossovers these days use a similar mechanism and you don't...
