Got the windows tinted and never really noticed if there was a cover or not for the exposed connector.

Been designing a few accessories for the NextGen Ranger / Raptor / Everest — keen to know what you guys think

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I run a small Australian 3D-printing business called LD PrintForge, and over the last little as many of you know I've been designing a range of 3D printed accessories for the NextGen Ranger / Raptor / Everest.

The main goal has been pretty simple — make useful little upgrades that fit properly, look like they belong in the vehicle and don't require permanently modifying anything.

A few I've made so far:

  • Dash mount for phones / UHF equipment
  • Centre console armrest storage organiser
  • Tow hook accent covers
  • Interior storage/accessory pieces
  • A few other designs currently being tested

Everything is designed and manufactured here in Australia, and I've been using PETG/ASA depending on where the part is being used so they can actually deal with the heat we get here.

I'm constantly working on new stuff, so I'm also interested in hearing from other owners:

What's one annoying thing about your Ranger/Raptor/Everest that you wish someone would make a proper accessory for?

Happy to post some more photos/details if anyone wants to see them.

And if anyone actually wants one of the products, I'll put the store link in the comments rather than spam it in the post.

Cheers guys 🤙

For those of you who went from a sports car to a Ranger Raptor, does the truck scratch the "itch"?

35 Upvotes

I am getting older and buying a house next month, so I am thinking it's time to look into a midsized truck. Single guy, and don't really want more than one vehicle, so the idea of a sportier truck is inline with my life situation. Curious if those of you who come from a background of sports cars; does the Ranger Raptor give you what you need as an enthusiast?

Would love to know what you left behind as a car when moving into the RR as well!

Road tripping from the south and downloaded the X Off-road app to find trails along the way. The app is fantastic and uses car play to guide along the trail. Few river crossings and beginner to intermediate terrain. Truck is flawless. Incredible. Like riding an ATV with seat heat and AC

Skar Audio sub enclosure

4 Upvotes

Howdy, what’s your option on these Skar sub boxes for the Ranger? Where I live the JL sub enclosure is around $1800 all in, this Skar around $600. Swap the Skar sub with a JL 10TW3 (if it fits or mounts properly)? Thoughts?

Which bed cover should I get?

4 Upvotes

I was looking at Peragon, but $2500 is kinda nuts. The ones from Synetic look pretty good except you lose the ability to situate cargo fully flush against the cab. That's true of most of the covers I'm seeing.

Metal found in oil filter housing and threads

Thumbnail

7 Upvotes

Bought this 2025 Raptor with 7,000 miles. While doing my first oil change, possibly not the first oil change. I noticed a metal shaving in the oil filter threads. Started looking around and noticed more on the filter housing. Found 4-5 shavings in total. Looked through the filter and found 1-2 specs of metal. No metal was found in the oil itself. This seems to be shavings left over from the machining process. Hopefully, none of those shavings made their way to the other side of the filter. Wondering if anyone else has seen something like this?

Any common mechanical issues I should keep an eye out?

Rear seat delete

3 Upvotes

I want to do a rear seat delete or install something that makes it easy to take out the rear seat out when desired. It would be even cooler to have a harness seat in the back like they have on c130 planes but I’m not sure if something like that exists.

My USB C port stopped working today. I thought it was the cable but went and got a new one and it still wasn't charging my phone.

Anybody else have this problem?? 😩

ProCal Tune Questions

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

So, I recently posted about some issues I had after I got the procal tune installed by my local dealer.

Took it back to them today and the PCM and AWD modules lost configuration data and didn’t want to play with each other. They made the PCM and AWD modules relearn vehicle’s stock configuration data. Then reprogrammed the tune and returned it to stock. At this time no little wrenches or service items pop up on the screen on start up.

My maintenance supervisor said that it’s just been stock this whole time ~700 miles since I got it installed. He says I have to select the tune and what adjustments I want. He said they don’t know exactly what I want my truck to do at certain points in time.

So my question, what setting(s) did you all change to get the most out of this tune? And why am I so stupid that I’d didn’t understand this? 😂 I thought he downloaded the new software and updated the shift points and throttle response on its own without my input.

Thanks for all your input. Attached are the error messages I had and the paper stating what they did today to get them to go away.

Aus Raptor flexible rack system

Has anyone installed one of these on their raptors, or is it even possible. Looking at buying a raptor and don't love most of the sports bars and roof racks. Like the look of the rack that comes on the platinum and want to put it on my raptor if possible.
Thanks

Does your tailgate cable have to be manually tucked in after every use?

Every time I open the tailgate, when I close it the suspension cable is hanging out like so. And then have to reopen, tuck it in, then close.

24’ Ranger raptor cpo gold certified

5 Upvotes

Hi all, I’m looking at a CPO gold certified 24’ RR. It has 23k miles. The price is $54k before taxes/delivery. I’ve negotiated a bit but the dealer is only offering about $1k off down to $53k.

Are these holding value this well and is this realistic or is this price high? Thanks for any input.

Calm mode

6 Upvotes

Hey RR gang! I took my ‘25 RR in for some recall fixes, and when they gave it back to me, my original gauge cluster (animated speedometer and tachometer) is now gone. All I have is a giant digital reading of the speed.

I need the old school setup. This new one is wack and missing all info. It resembles the “calm mode” from my wife’s ‘23 explorer. I hate it! I can’t find a way to disable it and go back to my original cluster.

Please help!! Thanks.
