Get it flushed? It may be better than a new one

My credo
Nothing is so difficult it cannot be overcome by brute force and ignorance =8-)
I was thinking perhaps the same thing .

I use citric acid powder and distilled water to flush my cooling systems, it works a treat with old solder bloom and hard water deposits .

That being said the aluminum and plastic radiator in my 1982 Mercedes passed every test but the engine still ran warmer than I liked so I but the $220 bullet and Lo ! it runs at least 15 degrees cooler all year 'round .

I'm in Placerville CA. I did find the Bed Liner Warehouse in So. Cal that can get new bed liners. They can no longer ship them because now the shipping company's want the bed liner in a crate and that would cost way too much to ship. I did get my local O'Reilly Auto parts to order a new bed liner for me. The only problem is it my take up to 8 weeks to get it. So I'm going to wait. I did repaint my bed. I didn't want to spend days sanding the bed floor so I just coated the bed floor with a roll on bed coating. I think it will be extra protection once I get my new drop in bed liner and it makes it look better until then. I wanted to keep the factory molded hood pad because the reproductions are just flat insulation. So I just bought so stick on foil insulation on ebay and stuck it over my factory hood pad that was falling apart. https://www.ebay.com/itm/254999866775
Where did you get the Ranger Tailgate Logo from. That's sick looking.

The catalogs are free from LMC truck. When you get on their mailing list they send you a new updated catalog when they come out with them.

The Ranger tailgate letters are for 2019 and new Rangers. I bought mine on ebay. You can get them in many different colors. I put the same Ranger letters on my Dad's 2007 Ranger tailgate too.

Can you provide a link please? Are these individual letters and are they decal stickers?
