I have no idea, but, my super-8’ is supposed to be getting the 4150 rear. I stayed with the standard 3.31 but got the locking. ( so I suspect 8.75 rear) Also—checking frame stuff, the 157” & 164” trucks get the heavy duty frame at .11” thick material. Three or four different frame thicknesses on...

I have a iPad mini that is physically plugged into the car at all times. This is my music source and it moves from car to car. I have not been pleased with the Bluetooth sound quality in either of the trucks or her trailblazer. Sounds better via USB My phone seems to work okay via Bluetooth, but...

Most Most of those platforms will also move fore & aft. So when initially tied down, they may be nowhere near the next car. Can’t positively say this is true of the tractor, but a LOT of trailers have this feature

Not that this will affect me, but the question remains: Is the PB frame going to accept the 5th/gooseneck hitch?

Geography. I really don’t have that issue down here. Only reason I took mine out was to replace fuel pump in the truck—easier than dealing with a full tank on the ground. my bed was pretty much spotless after 15 years. Two spots where paint rubbed off. It was however, full of acorns. Oh, and...

I’ve had it out of my Ranger a couple of time. Under the rail. Takes a bit of effort, but it does come out.

In San Antonio? Who did it? and are they north, south east or west? Im way south--outside of 1604

37-38 minutes Right hand drive Mustang??? Not a reversed film---can still read the warning signs overhead.

XLT mid level on up

I did not get a tow package other than the receiver ( it was supposed to be ordered but dealer missed it) I will have the controller installed before I leave the grounds. I know it is 5k all by itself and weight distributing will add quite a bit. Not sure but I think one of the tow packages adds...

I ordered a 301a and it was supposed to have a towing package, but it got lost in the ordering. At first I was a bit annoyed, but after some thinking about it, what is actually included? Dealer will install trailer brake controller upon arrival and I don’t need all the technology stuff. I don’t...

I’m kinda curious as well. I’m not certain that I would be a good person to give a review as my daily still uses good old fashioned sealed beams, along with both of the hot rods. The Ranger has halogens, and can see pretty well, but I just flat do not like driving that truck. FWIW—75% of my...

So, I’m guessing this is a one time set it up and it’s done sort of thing? Like linking the phone to the radio so she will put the phone down and drive the car? Buying that stereo for her is probably the best thing she ever got.

I don’t think removing skid plates will even net you 20# Front large plate is aluminum—-maybe 6# Small boomerang shaped TC plate maybe 5# ( I believe it is steel ) Tank plate being plastic is all but weightless. The gain in my opinion, is just not worth the effort to remove

My dad (rest in peace) would only wax the hood and the top of the front fenders. Spent virtually his entire life in bright, sunshiney, hot climates not conducive to paint longevity. “Only things I can see while I’m in the car.” But he traded up or down every couple of years—he got bored with...

I’m not too keen on having that 4x4 decal either. They look okay new, but two things bother me about them. 1. They dry out and start cracking—does not look good 2. They are not “color coordinated” Bright red decals have no business on a vehicle that does not compliment them. The decals on my...

For those not aware, SCAN is a feature that seeks the next available station and plays it for a few seconds before seeking the next. My T-Birds both had this—-handy when in a different location from home

My comment and pic was more “tongue in cheek” than condescending. But, this is a pretty common sight near the border. Same as seeing an old Tacoma flat towing two other cars or trucks behind it. International commerce. No way I would consider grossly overloading for anything more than a trip to...

Y’all concerned about a couple hundred pounds. Scenes similar to this are seen almost daily in my neck of the woods. Pretty sure these people have no idea what the payload capacity is. They may have the same view that I get only once every couple of years. “Tires are still round—add more”

GVWR is the total weight of the truck loaded to capacity. You are a bit confused or unclear on: GCVWR will be the weight number of both truck and trailer. Gross Combined Vehicle Weight Rating = truck and trailer loaded to capacity
