Hello, brother, peace be upon you. How are you? I am a follower from Kuwait, and I own a Raptor Ford Ranger. Here in Kuwait, it comes without a hitch receiver. I am planning to hitch a caravan and was wondering if you got a hitch receiver installed yourself, or should I ask a welder to do it for me? What do you suggest in this case?
Hello po, ask ko lang po kung pano nila na install ang tow wiring nyo po( para mapa ilaw ang receiver ng tail lights)? Hindi po kasi available dito sa atin ang may naka wiring na agad sa mga sasakyan. I owned a 2023 ranger wildtrak nextgen. Thanks po. hope masagot
I know Filipinos are not accustomed to towing but you have a Pick up Truck, that despise the "sport" truck category it still has one of the world's best Towing vehicle DNA. You will surprise yourself how effortless towing light loads like motorcycles can be. I have 6x4 trailer and it does everything from motorbike to gardening jobs. My truck tray can be preserved for my tools and camping. Please consider 🙏
yes correct. they weld a hitch receiver on the factory recovery bar. in my case, the shop had an extra factory recovery bar on hand (with hitch receiver already welded), when i got to the shop, i swapped it with the one that i have (that doesn't). keep in mind that you have the option to keep your own (instead of swapping) or trade it with the one they will install. also, i sent a heads-up 1 week before i visited the shop - so they can source and prepare the one for installation. again, you also have the option to leave ur factory recovery bar for 1 week and go back once hitch receiver has been welded and ready for installation.
the hitch receiver is just a "receiver" where the gecko trailer can be attached. you can also "detach" it anytime you want. you can also use the hitch receiver for other purposes - bike trailer or attach a ballhead for other towing purposes. the gecko trailer is "detachable"
sir, hindi recommended kargahan ng mabigat ang raptor. sana nag wildtrak ka na lng if mag karga ka ng mabigat. good for car camping rin naman ang wildtrak pa 2" lift mo lang.
I'll take that sir. sa next episode natin, nagpalit tayo ng springs to fix that issue plus new mags. with that, na address ung heavy load issue while retaining the smooth ride of the raptor. share po natin sa next episode :)

Nice setup
Good morning. Can you please show a video of how you load and unload the vespa at the hitch?

Nice set up😊

Sir gano katagal kinabit yung tow hitch? Hindi naman po nagka problem sa mga sensor nung bumper natin nung tinanggal and then binalik?

Sorry, but i do not understand very well the solution for the hitch reciever. Did you just weld a hitch to the factory recovery bar of the Raptor?
yes correct. they weld a hitch receiver on the factory recovery bar. in my case, the shop had an extra factory recovery bar on hand (with hitch receiver already welded), when i got to the shop, i swapped it with the one that i have (that doesn't).
keep in mind that you have the option to keep your own (instead of swapping) or trade it with the one they will install. also, i sent a heads-up 1 week before i visited the shop - so they can source and prepare the one for installation.

Good pm po sir.. ano po yung name ng shop? An how much po yung sa receiver?tnx
Sir palagay na din kayo Tailgate assist, hood damper assist saka T-step. Mga minor pero useful upgrade sa Raptor natin
well noted sir 😊 salamat sa suggestion
