 Aloha everyone,I am new to the forum and have owned my 2003 Ranger XL since July 2015 when I purchased it from a fellow service member after arriving in Oahu Hawaii. I am 38 and have spent the last 21 years serving in the US Air Force. I am currently a CMSgt working as an Aircraft Maintenance Superintendent for an F-22 Raptor unit. I don't have many hobbies but enjoy riding my 2013 Harley Road Glide on the weekends and hanging out with my two young kids. I like messing around working on vehicles in my small one car garage. My Ranger is a 2003 XL base model with the 2.3L 4 cylinder. The truck has no modifications and has about 150K miles on it. I have changed the Heater Control valve twice since owning it, plugs and plug wires (#2/3 both had oil showing so a gasket in the future), both lower ball joints and tie rod ends.

 Welcome, if you're doing work etc on your Ranger, consider opening a "project" thread to track it all.
