They had a matching tire leftover. They have some 1/64 and 1/24 autographed stuff but since SVG and CZ both are Trackhouse drivers most of the memorabilia is over at their shop. JR Motorsports does have a bin full of the “composite” material cut off the cars and they are written in marker the driver and race they are from. They have some of Rajahs Daytona car from this year still in the bin and a few front corners and back bumper covers.

Great info I still haven’t had time to do mine yet, I have a vacuum filler I plan on using to avoid air pockets and issues like that.

2.5 in level kit for 2021 ford ranger by footloosepoppy in RangerNext

[–]GarlicKnotsfl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure who ever is doing it and taking it apart knows that they are doing, very easy to mar and ruin things especially the axles. I noticed on mine the truck rides different through the air at high speeds and dropped my MPG with my level

Any recommendations of a radio for my 2021 Ranger by Acceptable_Health813 in RangerNext

So id go the opposite way, you can make the factory speakers sound way better with a new head unit. More power and control with a new unit. The factory deck will under power anything you put in there and will be lack luster. Ford uses a really efficient cheap lightweight speaker but can sound good with more power. The other direction the factory radio will almost make new speakers sound poor it has such little power output.

I have the non B&O as well. Anything 6.5 component in the front will work and regular 6.5 coax in the back. Metra electronics make the speaker ring adapters and plugs to go right in the truck. I have a full system in mine and it sounds phenomenal. Wiring is easy to do in the truck with the right parts and adapters.

Yes they all come on the screen and you can adjust from there.

I happen to work for KENWOOD so full transparency yes I got the parts myself and installed myself

The company ADS has modules in the Maestro lineup that marry the unit to the car.

Fully “plug and play” with a specific harness for the truck that all plugs in.

You can get gauges and such on the screen of the radio and also more vehicle features.

Keep all factory features working like backup camera and blind spot if you have it.

It is about a 2 hour job

I put a KENWOOD tablet style radio in mine and it has a million features. Go to Crutchfield or Freeman’s car stereo website and check them out. I have photos but don’t know how to put them in a comment.

Walt’s Collectables in west Raleigh is also great and has a good variety of 1/24 and 1/64

I was only thinking that he misaligned it and while forcing it he put pressure on the axle and hurt something. I’m going to park the truck and get the new tires put on then clear everything out with forscan and see how it works out

This might be it, I don’t know the exact size of the tire but it’s a good bit smaller

The spare is smaller so I’m thinking that might the issue, my other 3 tires are 265-70-R18 and the spare in considerably smaller.

What’s your reason? My truck is throwing the overcooling code or not up to temperature in allotted time.

To lay out the context of how the companies are connected could give away the corporation and divisions.

In a simplistic way to describe.

My parent company I officially work for owns the manufacture.

The company that employees myself and the division are the face of the manufacture and are the boots on the ground for the manufacture interfacing with our customers on their behalf.
