I'm up in Canada and it's a nightmare as well trying to get an OEM controller installed. Someone correct me if i'm wrong, but what about these 2 parts?

Posting this a little late but I had the same problem. Check under the hood and make sure the line from the washer tank isn't pinched under the hood. That is what my problem was and I just wiggled it free and now it's all good and working.
I'm looking to get a (hopefully) simple explanation of how 4x4 works without a rear locking diff. From what I can understand, if you engage 4wd high, the rear wheels will rotate at different rates, but with a locking diff, they are forced to turn at the same rate? But what happens to the front...
With the 3200lbs I'm not too concerned. I just wanted to make sure the towing capacity wasn't less with just the trailer tow package.
If I ever had to tow 7500lbs, I'd be getting a bigger truck though.
Maybe a stupid question on here, but can the ranger can tow 7500lbs with just the trailer tow package only vs the advance towing package? Not that I would tow that much without a brake controller.
I did the same thing. My original order wasn't going to arrive until August/September so I was able find one at another dealership with the options I wanted.
