I had to cut a little bit of plastic but there are lights out there that are small enough that you can do this same procedure without having to cut at all. I used the wire that i ran for the old 12" light bar i had above my license plate and that install is in a previous video if you want to see the wiring process. Cheers

yeah, for sure. i went out with the kids tonight but only had my iphone so the video didn't really come out that great. we will go back out tomorrow night with the real camera to try to show how well it works. i also need to adjust the light a bit to get it all dialed in

Good job with all these mods. You're making it harder to not ignore midsize truck at least for me

Right on. If I didn’t live near DC and have to drive in the city I probably would have gone full size but this ranger is perfect for me and it’s also easier to fit on the jeep trails

Great job mate! I got my roof rack, tube rack (waiting for my crossbar from the dealer, and may need brackets to reinforce it if want to put something heavy on it), sports bar, rock lights, couples of small led bars, deadening mats. Going to buy a 1.2m led light to the rear. A lot of stuffs to be installed. I really wish I could install them as fast as you are. Keep going!

Man you are cranking out the videos. You should slow down a little so you don't run out of material. When you do the brackets see if you can figure out how to remove the black fender flares. I want to remove mine and paint them body color. I just don't want to break them. Next time when trimming the grille you should use a dremel with a sanding bit. It would probably do better than the multitool for minor trimming.
@flaberdoopin
@flaberdoopin 4 месяца назад
that's a good idea but this plastic just started melting so i think the sander would have done similar. I am going to get a few files out next time i have the grill off and spend a few hours really making it even and looking nice. i am a bit of a perfectionist on a lot of things so the cuts are driving me a little crazy here haha.

Searching for perfection is futile, be happy with progress instead…. The truck is coming along nicely don’t worry about the small imperfections keep going…. The family moment at the end is what I’ll remember most about this video see you in the next one…

so your AUX6 seems to be working independently from the high beams? I dry fitted my led bar to AUX6 and it was triggered by highbeams. I did the final install and before heatshrinking everything I found out, the led bar comes on every time I activate AUC6 , no matter if highbeams or any lights are on or off. I am confused :-/
@flaberdoopin
@flaberdoopin 4 месяца назад
Yes. AUX6 is its own thing separate from all of the other lights. If you switch it on, no matter what else is on or off, the circuit will power up (if the truck is on)

That’s crazy. I get a bunch of random messages about seat belts and other random crap but no concerning alerts. What type of things are the alerts telling you?

What are your thoughts about all the issues? I had all the same ones as you (lot of rust, doors/hood don’t close, etc) plus more. The most annoying is dashboard creaking which the dealer is currently trying to fix. It’s been at the dealer for 1.5 weeks now. Some people make excuses but this is not acceptable for a new car. This is my 11th car in my life and never did I have these issues with other ones.
@flaberdoopin
@flaberdoopin 4 месяца назад
I have had over 20 cars since I was 16 but only 6 were bought brand new and every one of them had some sort of issue… some big some small. This truck is pretty awesome overall and just has a few little things that have taken a little getting used to. I painted the drive shafts on my own, I’m still waiting on word about the seat upholstery and the sync 4 issues are apparently problematic across Apple CarPlay as a whole based on what I am hearing. It is a bummer for sure and it sounds like you have more issues than me, which sucks. I still love this truck, I spent the day out on the trails with my kids and they were laughing and screaming the whole time in the bed of the truck while we were bouncing around. I focus on the good and try to fix the bad but my dash isn’t creaking so I can’t compare to that
@MalikPhotography
@MalikPhotography 4 месяца назад
@@flaberdoopin good to hear. If they are able to fix my creaking I’ll live with the other minor issues (more like annoyances). I just hope new things don’t keep popping up…I’d like to keep the truck rather than it being at the dealer all the time. As far as you fixing things yourself, like that rust…why? You paid 60k+ with tax for a brand new truck, you shouldn’t be expected to spend your own time/money to do fixes yourself. For example as far as rust goes, I’m going to see if ford can cover surface rust removal and a rust prevention coating. They did say this is “normal” however that can’t be true, because most rangers delivered don’t have any rust. Just the earlier ones built did, maybe because they sat in rain/flooding which happened in the Michigan factory location (I live 15 min away from the factory).
@flaberdoopin
@flaberdoopin 4 месяца назад
The dealer said it’s normal and they aren’t gonna help at all so I did it myself. As far as the rest of the stuff I fully intend to keep on the dealer until it’s fixed.
