What did you DO TO your 6G Ranger today? 🧰 🛠️ ⚙️ 🧽

[toddiscdn]

Ya, just me with the snowmobile trailer behind on a snowy road, not much I could do. Little bit of glass on passenger seat, so good thing no one was there...., it was a hell of a bang, lol

Picked her up with new glass today, all good.

I changed out the 2 piece lugs to the solid black ones

@Truckin - What brand of ceramic did you apply to your wheels & how was it?

 

[Arsenall11]

Not for all I’m sure! But what is? Ent to white rings for a change, little switch up and I can always go back to the cactus.

This is not for everyone but works for me. I do rims inside and out 1 time per year. Brake dust and road salt washes off easy without chemicals.
TW says this will last a year on a ride, I do it twice.
Do your paint prep, I usually clay, polish and wax,
This wax can do the entire truck in under an hour. Easy on and easy off! Lasts me the winter of going through my local car wash at least weekly and still beads in the spring .

TW advertised the graphene mix of things like heat reduction under the sun and other stuff, if interested are videos on line

Any poke on the tires?

There is very little poke with these.

Thanks for the tip, I was looking at some products that claim they're better suited for wheels (high heat), claims of up to 3 years. I'm fortunate not to have snow or road salt, just salt air here. I don't want to even have to do it annually and I don't enjoy cleaning my wheels, so I'm hoping to find something that will allow me to just spray them off when they're dirty.

I installed a pair of Rigid D-SS Amber Spot Lights using the FSE Brackets. (Then of course had to go test it off road at night )

I like them a lot, gives off a lot of light but no glare so it'll be good in dust or fog- The Signature Lux fog lights just arrived last night so I'll be putting those on next/

You do the install yourself and if so you wanna send some pics of the plugs. I just got my pair and there’s not much instruction

Gave the Ranger a pretty good beating off roading on Vegas vacation.

Sure thing- This might be a bit of a Photo Dump.

There's a few ways you can wire it up, Though I went with the way that requires you to slice the Wiring Harness- I didn't want to Hardwire these Lights to Aux Switch 2 so instead I bought these at O-Reilly's

My thinking is, with a Plug Connection I can swap lights out a lot easier in the Future if I wish, at least on the Trucks side it's just a plug for future use.

This isn't my picture as it's from another Forum but I made a similar cut on the Harness provided with the Lights.

I left as possible and then trimmed after I had the wires ran, here's my under hood.

When we're not impending doom and gloom (Freezing weather in Texas) I need to go buy some more loom to clean it up a bit more, as you can see I just ran the wire from the passenger side and ziptied the Loom to the Trucks.

and here's a few pictures of the Plugs.

When I go to Clean up the Driver side some more I' need to get more black Zip Ties as well to clean that up.

I didn't get a picture but the Grounding Wire I just used a spot on the Battery Terminal with a Ring Terminal.

Thx man,
You mentioned there was another way to rig them up would you say that’s easier. I don’t really plan to swap out these lights so curious?
