Reg Cab DJM 4/5 questions

I just bought a 99 regular cab 2.5L with a manual trans. I've been looking through various picture threads and it looks like with the DJM 4/5 drop the truck might not sit level. I have not seen...

Re: New shocks and highway troubles.

They're the best you can buy for a stock suspension. How could you let someone convince you that a strut/shock made to fit all kinds of different trucks would be better? If Ford wanted the...

Re: New shocks and highway troubles.

Too much bouncing is almost always a shock/strut problem. Why didn't you use Motorcraft???

Re: 98 ranger 2.5 miss after hard rev!!

I used to race people in my 96 2.3L from stop lights all the time. It was just up to the speed limit. The other person never knew it was a race and would just accelerate normally, but it was on! Once...

Re: 98 B2500 Bad Gas Mileage Broken Temp Gauge

1. 18mpg is normal. Reguarding the heistation, do you know if routine maintenance has been performed? Is it a hesitation or just lugging? You shouldn't normally be in 5th going 30mph.

2. This is...

Re: 2012 Ranger

Everything is going to a crossover look now. Have you seen the 2013 Escape (http://www.ford.com/suvs/escape/2013/)? I know it's a small SUV, but the 2012 still resembled a truck style SUV.

Re: Tuner for 2011 Ranger Sport 4x4

Do you need an aftermarket tuner? Do you have plans for big engine performance modifications?

Re: Abs?

+1. If it is low, check the inside of the wheels for fluid. If you've sprung a leak, you could lose brakes at any time.
If it's not low, you'll probably need a scanner to see if you're lucky enough...

Re: V8 swap or sell

6.0s are good with EGR delete kits. 6.4s are junk though. They just eat themselves.

Re: which gas station are you loyal too

I fill up at whichever brand name station looks cleanest/newest/busiest. In that order. Gas is not gas.

Re: New Ranger owner

Re: Well this is upsetting..

Don't think that Ford discontinued the Ranger here because of CAFE. Look at the decline in yearly sales. It's a pretty clear message that most people don't want a Ranger. I just bought a brand new...

I just bought a 2011 Ranger XLT xcab with a 4.0. I traded in a beat-to-hell 96 with a 2.3, manual trans, and no a/c or power options. :D
