Tires on my XLT

I acquired some 285/75 R16's for my Ranger! Had to modify the wheel well a bit.

Great tires. Is the speedo still correct? Or did you need to adjust for that? They are big. So the only thing you needed to do was MOD the wheel wells. That is inspiring.

Your welcome.

I don't see that color on trucks and cars much. You might have a rare Ranger. Loving it.

======================
TheArticWolf1911> Not sure what downsides you are referring to? The 95 Expo AWD is a DIRECT bolt-in swap into a 98up 4x4 or Edge chassis (Torque Arm Suspension).

New2Ford> No programming issues, you just use the Expo PCM & PATS module.

The truck is my DD and my MPG/MPT aren't any different than the lame 3.0L, and I DON"T LACK FOR POWER!:biglaugh::biglaugh:

Fordzilla80 01-10-2017 07:18 PM

The wiring is the downfall. The other downfall is that the Expo PCM isn't programmed to work with a manual transmission. So if one wanted to run a manual transmission, that person would need a custom tune to "delete" the automatic inputs from the PCM.

Ohhhh............

Ah I see, wasn't aware of that or had thought bout the manual trans thing.

SORRY, I stand corrected!:redface:

Yeah my speedo is out give/take 5 kms, I watch my manners as to not get any tickets. I get lots of compliments on it.

New2Ford 01-11-2017 04:18 AM

You can get a performance tuning shop to correct that. Or you can buy the flashpaq and do it yourself.

I can't decide if I want a 2 inch lift or big tires. I know I want more height.

The last thing I did was the LED conversion, I've got some (hopefully) brighter LEDs on the way for the cluster courtesy of Buggman, and I'm looking for some needles off an 01 to 03. Then it's on to exterior for a while...

New2Ford 01-11-2017 12:42 PM

That radio is cool. But holy bright.

Great job on the dash.

Mokumemetalarts 01-11-2017 01:01 PM

Haha! Thanks! that's what I said! Believe it or not, that is after putting black sharpie over the LEDs. I'm gonna have to spray it with lens smoke I think...

New2Ford 01-11-2017 01:07 PM

I can easily see that lighting up the entire cab.

The new "project"

New2Ford 01-12-2017 02:13 AM

That is a fabulous picture!! I'm not clear as to "The new project". Your Ranger looks so big from a distance. Love it!
Jim

mhoward 01-12-2017 05:47 AM

Yeah, I'm not getting it either. Care to elaborate, Jacob?

New2Ford 01-12-2017 05:56 AM

Deway do you mean lawn cutting? Got me confused.

Dewey 01-12-2017 06:34 AM

I mean that my wife and I just moved in to our new house.

mhoward 01-12-2017 06:37 AM

Ah, okay. Since I didn't know what your first house looked like, I didn't have a clue. Congratulations on the new diggs! :)

New2Ford 01-12-2017 07:32 AM

Very cool. Congratulations. Hope you make nice memories and great new traditions there. Happy house warming.

Just purchased my ranger 2 weeks ago. Installed some offroad led lights behind the grill and led fog lights.

Mokumemetalarts 01-12-2017 02:13 PM

I like those behind the grille! Nice!

mhoward 01-12-2017 05:40 PM

@nspratt: That is really slick! Congrats on finding such a super nice truck!
