Re: What is your other (non-ranger) vehicle.

I have a 2005 Dodge double cab 4x4 with a 6speed manual tranny diesel that I leave my Arctic fox 990 truck camper on all the time. Wife has a 2011 Kia Sorrento that she lets me drive once in awhile.

Re: 1999 tranny slipping in reverse

My 99 was doing that so with 240K miles put on the truck by previous owner I decided to have it rebuilt.

Re: Ranger shake!! HELP pls

Have the rotors turned & you will eliminate the shaking when applying the brakes. I had to do that to mine recently.

Re: Highway vibration help?

I had that problem & it turned out that whoever owned the truck before put new pads on the front brakes but never checked the rotors for being warped. Had mine turned at Midas & problem solved. It...

Re: R.I.P Ranger

I hate gunners who are always in a big hurry. 38 Years of driving truck I have seen it all. I would by it back & fix it if the frame isn't bent.

Re: Woody Anderson Ford

I call them Stealers not dealers. Case in point. I took my 2005 Dodge dually with the 5.9 Cummins into a dealer due to cranking but not starting. Turned out to be a pressure relief valve that they...

Re: What did you do to your ranger today thread III

Put in a new radiator because the plastic tank had a crack & leaking. It must have overheated on the previous owner due to so much hay blocking & clogging it. He must of been a rancher.

Re: How many miles do you have on your Ranger?

239K miles did I win? Most wouldn't buy such a high mileage truck like I did last week, but I know I can make it like new. Body is straight, runs good except for the tranny that is getting rebuilt &...

Put new wheel bearing on the front axle. Checked the brakes looks like 60% left on them.

Re: Reached 200k miles

I just bought a 1999 with 239K it's real clean , new tires & brakes but the radiator had to be replaced & the tranny needs rebuilding. You must be putting 40K a year on that 2010.
