I got this one: https://www.uprproducts.com/products/upr-ford-speed-oil-drain-valve-for-mustang-f150-raptor-edge-explorer-bronco?srsltid=AfmBOopm2M7qp_MuBloMOgKyBsCQOM69hL8dITBKS2UypdusPIh1WzoQ
Their catalog is needlessly confusing with so many competing drain plugs. This one looked like the...
I'll have to see if I have that extra hardware and throw that carriage bolt in. I did passengers side first and kinda rushed through the driver's side, fighting daylight.
What step did the instructions skip?
Mine went together pretty well. The biggest tip I would suggest is to test thread the aluminum chips before dropping them into your frame rails. One of mine kept feeling like it was cross threading due to a likely burr on the thread. It took the full torque...
I'll have to do a separate write-up on this later but ARB covers fit with a little modification.
I reused the stock gasket but basically replaced all the hardware. Probably not worth the hassle if you're buying new but this was a Marketplace steal from a while back.
Also change your rear...
I like your idea of changing at 50%. Most recently I changed at 5K and the monitor said 28% life left. Most of my driving is either short trips in the city or hard trips in the mountains. Not a lot of light duty cruising.
Lockers aren't limited slips. You don't need the additive but it also doesn't really hurt if you use the Valvoline with it already included.
Run the gear weight you want. Dana recommends 75w140 for these M220 Advantek axles. That's what I'm planning to run; Ford just recommends lighter oil for...
Dunno about the Ronin but I just installed a UPR valve with a nipple to drain the oil.
Ronin would require their adapter which always seemed like one more thing to lose.
Not true. You can turn that off if you load the Ford app and make a service record stating "I HEREBY DECLARE THAT I DO NOT GIVE MY PERMISSION FOR FORD OR THE US GOVERNMENT TO USE ANY OF MY PERSONAL DATA."
Hydra flask fits in the rearward position. My Zojirushi thermos fits in the forward position as does a Camelbak bottle and my cycling bottles. I like being able to hold two drinks in the door and 1-2 in the cupholders.
Those Everglades wheels look sick. I've been wanting to see those on a Ranger for a while.
Everyone selling them near me has them priced like a crackhead and won't negotiate.
Not wrong on the tires. It's pretty rough that you can't get Grabbers as an option on the Lariat FX4 like you can on the XLT. But maybe that's a statement of owners and their priorities 🤷♂️
