I live in the Verde Valley between Phoenix and Flagstaff. Going any direction, north south or northeast towards Payson is a climb out of this valley. This morning I went to Flagstaff, I can climb that grade at 65 with the 1.5L doing about 2300 RPM. People fly by me doing 85, most certainly using...

So it would seem the aftermarket oil pans don't necessarily stick down more, but the warning from Revel about using their skid plate with them was probably because the trap door for the drain wouldn't be in the proper place with an aftermarket pan.

My bad, I put 6 qts in, and when I checked later I added another 1/2 quart, so yeah, 6.5 qts.

My 1.5L only holds about 5.5 qts, that's quite a difference between 6.6 qts.

I'll look into the JRC. The Revel also has two small access doors for the filter and drain. The metal aftermarket oil pans must have a bit more capacity and hang down more, hence the note on the Revel description saying you have to have the stock plastic pan for clearance. I also had visions of...

For those of you that replaced the splash guard under the engine with a skid plate , what did you go with ? I was thinking about the Revel aluminum one. I've been driving some rough roads, and the plastic oil pan and plug don't inspire confidence. Changing the plastic pan out for a metal one...

It was entertaining to read through this old thread. Between the two guys arguing about engine size and all the thread drifts about the auto stop start feature, some posters actually talked about the subject matter, cylinder deactivation in the 1.5L, (and lack of it in the 2.0L). I don't give a...

I received the HRG Offroad end links a couple days ago and today installed them. The driver's side old link was the worst, the right one wasn't shot but the rubber in them was flattened and cracked. Maybe they failed early because they weren't the right length ? The old links are a good 1.5...

A few months ago I downsized, traded in my 2019 Ranger for a BS BB. I thought it looked good with the Falken tires but had no idea at the time it had a lift kit. A 1.5" lift isn't a real big change. I knew the new Bronco Sport was stiffer than my 2wd Rnger was, going around round-a-bouts there...

The AT3w is what came on my BS, much better grip on the dirt and a few big mud holes I went through than the slicker Continentals I had on my Ranger. I haven't yet tried them in the snow. Hopefully the AT3w will do better than the AT4, which slid around more in the winter tire tests comparing 5...

Those Wildpeaks do howl on rough asphalt or when I'm going slow on pavement with the windows down. But with the windows up doing 80 I don't find the tire noise bad at all. The BS seems quieter inside than the Ranger I traded in. I added some cross bars to the BS roof rails and I hear the...

I just got back from a trip to Lake Mead to visit with friends. There are a lot of ups and downs between here and Lake Mead, and the Bronco did better than expected. When going up the long grades I didn't try to maintain the 75 that I did in the flats and downhills, but had no problem staying at...

Hi everyone ! , new member from Northern Arizona. I am a member of the ranger5g forum but traded in my 2019 Ranger XLT last week for a 2022 BS, Big Bend trim. My Ranger was a 2wd Supercrew with Continental street tires, but as long as the dirt roads were dry, I went places I probably shouldn't...
