Im an American living in Philippines. I have a 2016 diesel with a 5 inch lift and 35's. Trust me that is more then enough and a 7.5 lift and 37's is over kill in my opinion. He seems like a down to earth guy with a good attitude so I want to make it clear i mean no disrespect
EPA won't allow us to get Diesel midsize and mini trucks, because they actually produce more torque and better fuel economy, and rarely breaks down. this applies to Toyotas, and Fords.
@@dundeeecroc way more torque and mpg. The problem is emissions in the USA. No way in the world ford could make an affordable diesel to pass emissions in USA (especially California)
Love it! Own a '19 Ranger XLT FX4 an it's excellent. Overbuilt for sure w/Dana axles & F150s 10spd tranny. T6 frame is strongest in its class. Just ordered Fox 2.0 shock kit also. Levels & lifts truck a modest 2in.
Lots of good insights with this video that's kinda hard to capture in a reel. I like the idea of a separate tune for towing....that will keep your truck running for a long time.
Hey, I heard/read that the Spicer FDU M210 for the Bronco will fit and bolt in without any fab work whatsoever and is basically the same price when all said and done. I’m hoping you go for it before I do! LoL
Yeah so sick eventually if it has the original transmission it will be sick and fail. Happened to my Ranger at 27,000 miles and it's a nightmare to have Ford correct the problem while under warranty.
He might have actually saved a little if he started with the tremor. I'd love to take the factory bed off mine and do a Baja build. Build up the motor and take it up to Michigan.
awesome build!! very well put together. Thank you for also showing your recovery gear. very important and overlooked mod for every adventure rig. I'm close to moving on a 21 lariat. This gives me a lot to work with in the future. Thank you. Keep on keepin on, brother
@@Davido50 ...stock fx4 is outstanding and I'm loving it, well said. I've got a large stack of parts waiting to go on, but dang I love how it is right now.. 👊🏼🤙🏼
@@MegaRanger-cw2df ... sincere thank you. I love this truck. Loved my old '94 splash v6 stepside, i hammered it. Looking forward to many adventures and a fun build up. Keep on keepin on, good sir..🤙🏼
Looks killer man, im interested in the swaybar disconnects for my 2019 . I am literally doing the fox 2.0 kit 0-3 inch today.. which length would suit me better ?
when you said -12mm offset on the dirty life wheels did you mean +12 offset? I know that Rough country recommends a 20x9 +12 and what did you have on previously?
Awesome build. What brand did you use for the adaptive cruise relocation kit? Was there issues with adaptive cruise functioning correctly after relocation? Thanks for all the replies..
I was going to do the build but the transmission went to crap at 26,000 miles and Ford could not get the repair correct so thereafter I sold it back to Ford.
In 2020 the Tremor did not exist yet so I started with the FX four. Honestly I would probably do that again just because I’ve replaced all the suspension components that would’ve came with the Tremor. There will be a build Vlog on the Salty Gears website soon.
Oh dang this is the guy on Facebook hahah! Glad your truck was able to be fixed after your fender bender, had me totally worried haha. Not even kidding! So it looks like you took the spare tire shroud off to fit your 37’s?
Yes you can leave your stock FX four shocks in the rear they will be valved a little different they won’t handle quite the same. But they will work just fine for most everything you do when you do the fast paced stuff is the only time you’ll notice a really big difference. Definitely recommend matching rears eventually.
Sick truck! So I have a 6” RC lift and I’d like to ditch the spacers up front. What is the length of coil over do I need to make the swap up front and ditch the pucks?
I also have some dirty life -12mm new wheels and I tried to have them installed today but my mecanic was concerned that the oem studs where to short for those wheels, did you have to change the oem studs for extended or are they good?
Hello Sr. Killer truck. Have a 19 lariat sport myself. Bone stock. Just received my eibach pro truck coilovers tho. Curious about your tuner. Brand and do you monitor engine vitals? Might get to 33's but don't want to kill power. Live in the mountains. And what's needed to get the calipers on? Any info welcome...wheel on bud
@MegaRanger-cw2df I’m right here in Utah. I have a 2019 Ford Ranger XLT on a 6 inch rough country lift. I love everything about this truck and I want to get the same front suspension set up as you. Is there anyway you can direct me to where you got that custom king suspension kit? I’d love to collaborate with you or talk about the MegaRanger.
I got Ranger Wiltrak 3.2 diesel EU version, simular setup, but different brand of gear. And i regeared mine... How does your front axles handle everything? I CONSTANTLY brake mine while offroading =/
I want to lift my 2020 Ford Ranger with the 3 1/2 inch lift. I’m currently running a -12 centerline on a 2.5 leveling kit which works great but I would like to go to a 3 1/2 inch lift kit and run a 285 70/ 65 minimum. Is there anybody out there that can help me nobody seems to know if they put a 3 1/2 inch lift on my truck and a 285 they say will Rb does anybody know if that’s true?
I wanted the electronic locker that comes with the FX4 I also wanted the creature comfort‘s like leather adaptive cruise control push button start proximity unlock and lock things like that so I wanted to start with a lariat FX4. This truck is my primary vehicle and daily driver so I definitely enjoy having the extras every day!
Builds can be expensive for sure but there are also a bunch of options that won’t break the bank! If you want to see what your options are call anytime!
1. The Tremor was not even a model option for that year 2. If he did get a tremor model and still did all this work, the literal difference would be the tremor branded seats, rear bed stickers, and the upfitter switches, both of which make no difference to this build being applied to either the fx4 or the tremor model At the end of the day, it’s the same thing
