2022 Ford Ranger Bar Work

Front end protection is covered by the ARB Summit MKII Bullbar, offering full integration with the factory driver assist sensors. This bar is designed to optimize the vehicles approach angle and houses a variety of accessories including a 12,000lb Carbon Winch.

Connected to the Bullbar are ARB Summit Side Rails followed by Side Steps, providing protection to the doors, sills and quarter panels from potential damage that can be encountered on off-road tracks.

The underside of this Ranger hasn't been forgotten with ARB Under Vehicle Protection which not only adds to the 'off-road' look, but is engineered to shield vulnerable underbody components.

A Hayman Reece X-Bar has also been installed in the rear, increasing the amount of recovery points along with improving departure clearance.

2022 Ford Ranger Lights & Electrical Modifications

A pair of STEDI Type X Pros are front and centre on the new bull bar. These lights are specifically designed to push boundaries with brackets tested to withstand extreme conditions such as prolonged corrugations.

Rear facing STEDI 20W LED Work Lights have been mounted to both top corners of the canopy providing more visibility when reversing and on the camp site.

A Redarc RedVision TVMS has been fitted inside of the canopy to provide user friendly control to on-board devices such as lights, inverters and other electrical loads.

Other notable electrical modifications include a Custom Battery Fuse Holder and a Narva Dual USB Port inside of the cabin.

A Megalife Battery starter battery has replaced the original battery, reducing weight and allowing for push button jump starting with the built in reserve cell.

Snorkel For 2022 Ford Ranger

To add to the vehicles performance a Safari Snorkel has been fitted to the stock air cleaner assembly. This increases the volume of cool, clean air and acts as an efficient water separator ensuring safe engine operation.

Additional Tourer Equipment

Other modifications to get this late model Ranger tour ready include a GME XRS 390C UHF and 6.6 dBi Antenna with inbuilt location awareness to provide accurate GPS location data.

Up top a Rhino Pioneer Platform was also installed for additional storage and to house a Redarc 180W Solar Panel to maintain charge of the electrical system.

Long Range Fuel Tank for Ford Ranger

To increase range a Brown Davis Long Range Tank has been installed, improving the distance this vehicle can travel between stops. This tank is a direct replacement for the factory tank, designed specifically to suit off-road touring.

Engine Protection for 2022 Ford Ranger

Under the bonnet a Direction Plus Preline Pre-Filter is fitted to protect against water and particle contamination, improving the ability to cope with extreme weather or poor fuel quality.

A Provent catch can has also been fitted protecting the motor against oil & soot contamination.
