Product Overview

This kit is tailored for heavily laden Ford Rangers that frequently carry loads or tow. It raises the vehicle by approximately 40mm, improving clearance for off-road use and allowing larger tyres to be fitted. The kit includes front coil springs, rear leaf springs, Foam Cell shocks, and all necessary installation hardware for heavy-duty performance.

Operation unladen is not recommended, as the ride will be harsh. Pedders recommends a minimum of 350kg load in the rear to maintain proper ride quality. Additional front equipment such as winches or bull bars may require consultation to ensure correct springs.

Foam Cell Shock Technology

Foam Cell shock absorbers use a special foam saturated with oil instead of relying on pressurised gas. This design prevents aeration and cavitation, keeping damping forces stable across the full stroke. With greater oil capacity and improved heat dissipation, they resist fade, control temperature, and deliver reliable performance even under demanding use. Their durability makes them well suited for heavy-duty, towing and off-road applications.

Installation & Compatibility

The kit includes fully assembled Ezifit struts with Foam Cell shocks, springs, top mounts, bump stops, and boots. Installation is straightforward with no need for spring compressors or reuse of old parts; components bolt directly on. A professional wheel alignment after fitting is strongly recommended for optimal performance.

This kit is specifically designed for heavy load and towing use rather than general comfort or unladen driving.
