Hi Guys

I would like to add a few accessories to my Ford Ranger T6 and have a wish list from Frontrunner .

bash plate
draw system with cargo slide on top, 4 Wolf Pack ammo cases
slimline roof rack
long range fuel tank
water tank

General quality and durability of their products.
Pretty expensive so would rather buy once cry once with the right product.

Thanks
Greg

for an auxilary tank I would recommend a 56 gallon tank.It will insure you have enough fuel.

Mostly they are ok. Some things overpriced or useless.
The roof rack is very good, but you will depend on them for accesories and they are pricey . bash plate is the same as others, steel 3mm with powder coating, What I liked about mine was the fact it need it only 4 bolts..

The roof rack is amazing. But get creative before buying their accessories. More often than not you can make something cheaper and it works just as well. I've got their maxtrax mounts which make a ton of noise when the maxtrax are in them. I've also got the tie down which are only a few bucks but work well. I've got a solar panel, awning, fishing pole holders, and maxtrax mounted to the rack.

I have 4 of the Wolfpack storage boxes, two of the metal jerry cans with the lockable carry holder...all very good BUT I felt/feel I overpaid a tad.

I'm running a full length Front Runner rack and I absolutely love it. I also use they're awning mounts, which are way nicer than the Rhino Rack mounts. Pretty much everything Front Runner makes will be super strong, reliable and long lasting. Your good buying they're stuff.

Agree with all of the above. I was hesitant at first about buying their full length slimline rack until I found out that I could easily bolt anything to it. I have the rack, their awning, and their propane bottle rack, everything else I have up top is easily bolted down with regular hardware items.

Have the slimline roofrack, did a lot of research and its one of the best in the game. Lots are making similar/copies. Been to a couple burning mans and thousands of offroad miles with gear / tents on top. Has never moved or budged from original mounts and work.

Their tent is solid, one of the biggest footprints for the price and size, I love it - can fit me, wife, and baby in it comfortably. We're tall.

For 2.5 years I've used and abused a variety of Frontrunner Products, from their Expander Camp Chairs to roof rack tie downs (which fit my Rhino Rack platform), Stratch-it straps (awesome), Wolf and Cub and softside packs (best use of packing space), and their terrific 5gal water jerry with spout. Their Drop Down Tailgate Table too, is great, which installed on my van's rear door just fine.

Their products are generally well-regarded around the world. When I got most of my FRO gear, I got it from Exploration Outfitters in Mead OK. I suggest you shop online at amazon etc to weed through user reviews, then see how EO's prices compare. I found they are often less expensive than anyone else. They sell a bunch of FRO product.
