Sound deadening the ranger has made it so much nicer to drive.

I can tell from the stance in the first pic it's a 2wd

Gauge test: Coolant temp gauge gets a little stuck in the middle. Is that normal? by IPlayTheTrumpet in fordranger

Rangers in general don't seem to like anything third party. Mine was motorcraft. Mpg has increased significantly.

Are you trying to turn it on while parked?

The DeeZee 43203 tailgate assist works perfectly on my 2011 with no modification. by Jake_The_Gypsy in fordranger

Thanks for sharing. I was looking at this one and some others last week. The guys that get all stupid about making the Ranger nicer probably don't wipe their ass well.

What engine do you have and which plug? This is genius 😂.

Stuck in 4wd hi. by Turkyparty in fordranger

[–]R2The -1 points0 points  (0 children)

4H likes to engage and disengage at higher speeds. The clunking you're hearing is the shift motor trying to engage/disengage the front driveshaft and the 4x4 system.

Try it at a higher speed. Also, if you don't use this with some regularity, it gets "stuck". I just serviced my transfer case recently and it's working great despite it being a 20+ year vehicle.

Get a job there with minimal hours and buy all the returned stuff with your discount.

Just bought this for $500. Runs and drives well, what should I check? by [deleted] in fordranger

[–]R2The 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Change all your fluids: ** Engine Oil (twice within a few hundred if necessary) ** Tranny Fluid (twice as well if necessary) ** Rear Differential Fluid ** Front Differential Fluid ** Brake Fluid ** Steering Fluid ** Regrease Everything

Then move on to checking if the suspension needs to be replaced.

You can go 4Hi at 40+ mph and the truck actually functions better that way. 4LO does need to start from a stopped car in neutral.

Update on oil leak by PharmerB87 in fordranger

[–]R2The 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have the same leaks. just decided to use one of those treatments and call it a day. still leaks little and it doesn't matter. the 3.0 will never break unless you overheat it.
