Expert Answers about Ford Ranger


  • Does the Weight of a Weight Distribution Hitch Get Added To Tongue Weight On a 2019 Ford Ranger
  • The weight of a weight distribution system does not get factored into the tongue weight as it becomes part of the frame. If you are looking for a weight distribution system, I recommend the Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control # BLU87FR. This is made for trailers with a tongue weight between 800 and 1,000 lbs. It offers better sway control than pretty much any other WD hitch on the market.

  • Recommended Parts For Flat Towing a 2023 Ford Ranger XLT 4X4
  • I completely understand your confusion Jim. As someone who has worked with all the different manufacturers over the years here are the best components which I recommend for you to use. First you will need the Roadmaster Base Plate # RM-524459-5 for your 2023 Ford Ranger. This will connect to your motorhome with the Roadmaster Nighthawk All-Terrain Tow Bar # RM-676. Do understand you may need one of the High/Low adapters from the list below as the tow bars need to be within 3" of level....

  • Is Drive Shaft Disconnect Needed to Flat Tow a 1996 Ford Ranger
  • I took a look at the online owner's manual for a 1996 Ford Ranger and it looks like the 2WD manual can be flat towed, you just need to release the parking brake and place the transmission gearshift into the neutral position prior to towing. You won't need to disconnect the drive shaft. For a complete flat towing setup you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring, a supplemental braking system, and possibly a high-low adapter. I recommend the following: Crossbar-Style...

  • Tekonsha Wiring Harness Compatibility With Wireless Brake Controller On a 2020 Ford Ranger
  • Yes, the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 22124 can be paired with a wireless brake controller such as the Curt Echo # C51180. Your 2020 Ford Ranger will have to have the factory tow package and you will need to run the additional wire to the battery in your engine compartment for the 7-way to fully function.

  • Recommended Snow Plow and Front End Suspension for a 1994 Ford Ranger
  • Yes, the Custom Mounting Brackets for Detail K2 Snowplows item # K281110 are confirmed to fit your 1994 Ford Ranger. These will allow you to mount the Detail K2 Storm II Snowplow item # K2STOR8422 to your truck. It is recommended when using a snow plow to add additional suspension support. I recommend the Timbren Front Suspension Enhancement System item # TFXF1004 which fits the 4WD models of the 1994 Ranger.

  • Replacement Mounting Brackets and Hardware For a 4" Oval Nerf Bar On 2020 Ford Ranger SuperCrew
  • We do have the Replacement Installation Mounting Hardware # W98DF which will fit either the Black # W95KD or Stainless Steel # W75UR 4" Westin PRO TRAXX Oval Nerf Bars for a 2020 Ford Ranger SuperCrew cab. Since not all nerf bars use the same hardware you will need to verify what nerf bars you have to verify if these brackets will fit.

  • 2021 Ford Ranger Roof Rack Recommendation for a Leer Cap
  • Hey Glenn! We have a variety of roof rack systems that can be used on your 2021 Ford Ranger, but my favorite by far is the Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells # Y02-490B. This system does require you to drill into your Leer cap to install the tracks, but the tracks allow you to adjust the crossbars quickly as well as remove the crossbars via the Quick Mount legs if you want to decrease the height of your truck.

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2022 Ford Ranger w/ Tremor Package
  • I have a great hitch for you but I checked with our vendors and no one makes a hitch that attaches to the bumper on the 2022 Ford Ranger with or without the Tremor Package. I took a look at Ford's website and they do not list one either just an overly complicated frame mounted one. I recommend using the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver item # e63ZR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts directly to your Ranger with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a...

  • Are Replacement Spring Bars Available For The Curt TruTrack 4P Weight Distribution System # C74RV
  • Hey Paul, I spoke with Curt and they stated that the Replacement Trunnion Spring Bar for Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System # C17535 would only be compatible with the # C17499. The Curt TruTrack 4P Trailer Mounted Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # C74RV (17520) is such a new part that Curt doesn't have replacement parts set up for it yet but is working on it. That being said neither of these would properly distribute the weight and would instead make it worse because...

  • Can a Tekonsha Trailer Brake Controller Work On a 2024 Ford Ranger With Factory 7-Way?
  • Yes, you can easily install a Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195 on your 2024 Ford Ranger which already has a 7-way trailer connector. Under your dash there are going to be 4 terminated wires that will splice to the pigtail included with the Tekonsha brake controller. I have linked an install video near the bottom of this page we did on a 2021 Ranger which will show you the location of the wires around the 14:20 time in video.

  • Parts Needed to Install Thule Wingbar Crossbars on 2023 Ford Ranger
  • Hey Lindsay, there is only one available option that would allow you to use the 135 cm Thule Wingbars part # TH711400 on your 2023 Ford Ranger and that is with the Evo Feet part # TH710501 and the fit kit part # TH145063. The Rapid feet which were a previous generation would be compatible with the Wingbars since the mounting has remained the same but there was never a fit kit designed to fit your truck from that generation of Thule feet since it wasn't out at the time.

  • Motorcycle Carrier Recommendation for 2022 Ford Ranger Tremor
  • If you'd prefer something that would be easier to move around the Ultra Fab part # UF48-979033 weighs about half of the K2 you mentioned which was discontinued but would be a little harder to load and unload due to it's shorter ramp. I have a carrier like this and I really like it so it would work great for you.

  • Can Yakima Overhaul HD Ladder Rack Fit 2019 Ford Ranger and Canoe Carrier
  • Howdy Dave! So the Yakima OverHaul HD ladder rack part numbers # Y01152-57 is a fit for your 2019 Ford Ranger, it does have a height setting that we know is taller than your cab and would do a great job carrying a canoe even though we haven't had the chance to put one on your exact setup. Then for a canoe carrier you would want to go with one that can attach to the top channels of the Overhaul which for that the LockRack par # LR88FR would be a great option for that.

  • Inexpensive Proportional Brake Controller for 2020 Ford Ranger with Factory 7-Way
  • Ruth, I have a great option for you with the Tekonsha Primus IQ part # TK90160. The Primus is proportional, affordable and features an easy to read LED display. There is not a port on the 2020 Ranger for a plug and play wiring harness so there will be some wiring involved. There will be a large wiring harness that goes through the driver's side firewall to the left of the brake pedal that the pig tail from the brake controller will need to be connected to. You won't need any wiring at the...

  • Can Stabilizer Jacks TJ01RT-HD be Used With Trailer Frame Running Front to Back
  • Hi Carlos; thanks for the photo and that's a smart question, but your trailer frame running front to back won't make a difference in the effectiveness of the Stabilizer Jacks # TJ01RT-HD. They can absolutely still be used on your Geo Pro G15TB with that frame configuration to help stabilize your trailer.

  • Is CE Smith 1.8K Trailer Axle Available with Brake Flange
  • Hey Charlie, thanks for reaching out! The axles we have on our site, like the CE Smith Trailer Axle Beam with Standard Spindles # CE33201GA you asked about, are only available as-is. We have a few brake mounting flanges that can be welded on by a professional, but none of them will fit a square axle tube so you'll either need to look for a different axle altogether or see if a welder is able to help you out with the correct part. Trailers really only require brakes if they are rated for...
