Upgrade Your Ford Ranger Parking Brake Boot!

- Everyone is pinching pennies, and Ford is no exception. They skimped on the boot for the parking brake in the 5th Gen Ranger, and the factory vinyl boot easily cracks and falls apart in a short time. Replacing it with a much higher quality leather boot is a fast and easy job that any Ranger owner should do.

I can't believe that Ford went with such a weak material for this boot. Either they never tested it in cold weather, or they decided that since a lot of people don't use their parking brake, a few warranty claims for replacements would still be cheaper than a slight upgrade to something better.
Cost reductions pressed upon the supplier drives this crappy part
I completed this upgrade exactly as shown and it went great. 👍👍
Nice 👍
I used your video to replace my old cracked vinyl boot with the new leather one from Redline goods. Thank you, Andy!
Nice work!
Great video with awesome tips - thank you!
Thanks, David! When you do yours feel free to hit me with any questions that come up. Good luck!
@@AmplifyDIY All your tips, especially the pen cap, were well explained and demonstrated. Several folks have already mentioned how clever the binder clips are. You're a natural educator and I appreciate your attention to detail, and caring that others can also succeed with this.
Very nice! Will definitely be looking into this. The prices on the website are VERY reasonable!
Yup! The only downside with ordering there is that shipping takes a while. But if you are not in a hurry, it's great!
You should have a spoof affiliate link so people can buy Amplify DIY’s Custom Pen Cap Tool (patent pending). A Rick Roll link! 😂 but seriously, it’s really nice that your channel is your own.
Spoof links would be hilarious! Thanks for watching!
Great video. Steps are very well explained. What colors did you specify with ordering the boot? Both for the leather and thread. I want to stay as close to stock appearance as possible, just like you did. Thanks!
Hi Manuel - apologies for the late reply, but Merry Christmas! I just checked my invoice, and I chose:
Material: Black
Threads : Light gray
Hope this helps. Good luck!
Did you find the Black with Light Grey a good match? I ordered Black and Silver thread but now im wondering. (Like always i did my research here after i ordered)🤦
You are so great at explaining things clearly. Ty for making these videos :)
Glad you like them, Konig! Thanks for watching!
Exactly what I was looking for. Any chance that you know where to get another frame?
Hi Vitamin - unfortunately I don't know where to get another frame... maybe check with the dealer?
I have a 2019 ranger. Problem I have is reaching down to the coin holder where USB’s are and sometime I hit the 4WD shifting knob. Is there a way to lock it unless you need it???
Hi Carl - I hope you love your truck! Unfortunately, I have not found a way to lock out that spinning knob to select one of the 4WD modes. What I've done is limit the need to reach down there by adding a pretty convenient little top tray organizer thing to the armrest. This is where I keep things like coins, gum, a pen, a small flashlight, etc. This is the specific tray I installed (and I like it quite a lot), but there are lots of other options out there: amzn.to/3asjWd6
Thanks for watching!
