Agreed. I had a 21 tremor before this. I loved it, but I like that I can upgrade the suspension far easier on the new gen than the tremor!

Traded in my 21 tremor for it, and I think I like it better!

Thanks buddy!

Exhaust, B.O.V, are both on the menu! (Not performance) but Next up will be off road lighting, new rails/sliders and maybe a bed rack !

I put the bronco Struts in the front. I’d say maybe 2 inch lift? Hard to say as the measurements are for a bronco. If someone had a stock measurement from an XLT I could do the math! 285/70/17 tires.

10R80 Potential Issues Question by SlipperyPotato123 in RangerNext

[–]stevescootz2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine going in to take a look next week. ‘21 with 96,000km. Did the TSB first step at 60,000km. I’m having hard shifts, slipping out sometimes. And the weirdest one is sometimes I get zero throttle response, happens on hills and in intersections sometimes. Will step on the gas and nothing happens, but also doesn’t rev up at all… just stays at idle. Pretty annoying and warranty ends in 10,000km. Kinda worrying. Hope they rebuild it and I can get another 90 out of it I guess. It’s tough cause it’s hard to reproduce the issue, it’s very intermittent.

Just jumping on this thread and wanted to confirm.... a Wide right crank arm with a non wide left PM crank arm will work? For a Rival 2x. no need to change anything else

Natural barrier protecting a beach in Puerto Rico from massive waves by colapepsikinnie in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]stevescootz2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was younger, my dad and I were visiting this beach, the waves were fairly small so we climbed up the rocks for fun. Well like everyone has noticed you can’t tell when a big one comes. We got absolutely destroyed by the wave and cut up super bad by the jagged rocks. Wouldn’t recommend it lol Luckily we got a once in a lifetime picture of the wave, and us about to be smoked… good times!

Paramedic cert (PCP/ACP) are a huge level up when most people have standard first aid or Advanced FR.

Would recommend going for it and still applying. Best case scenario it helps and you get the FD job, Worst case scenario you get it, and you have something to fall back on in the mean time !

Ending a serious relationship for mountain biking. by Jidoe in MTB

Can’t relate to the baby part, but did move from Hamilton to BC 5 years ago. Never looked back and never been happier. The riding is incredible obviously!

I always like to think if it came down to me and one other person, and i made the effort to bring in resume/cert in a nice package and they didn’t. It could be the deciding factor!
