It is very important to know whether you need a PXII or PXIII model, as choosing the wrong one can cause issues during the installation of your suspension system.

Ford Ranger 2019-2022

The Performance suspension for the Ford Ranger is a true all-round talent that offers the ambitious driver everything in terms of performance that is needed in everyday life and on holiday. The Performance suspension can handle a significantly higher payload than the standard suspension without having to sacrifice everyday driving comfort. This makes it possible to equip the Ranger with a roof tent and camping equipment at the weekend and to get to work during the week with a nearly empty weight. It is also ideal for conversions that increase the overall mass of the vehicle by up to 150 kg. The performance springs on the front axle also offer sufficient reserve, e.g. for a winch or a modified bumper. At the same time, they offer the driver comfortable handling and guarantee good off-road articulation. The Foamcell damper from Ironman4x4 offers modern Foamcell technology at a fair price. Without gas filling, and with up to half a litre of Kayaba oil, the Foamcell damper offers comfortable compression and rebound damping for on- and off-road applications thanks to its valving that is perfectly adapted to the respective kit.

Upgrade with ABE

Genesis Import is proud to be able to offer an ABE, a genuine "General Operating Permit", for the Australian suspension from Ironman4x4 for more than 13 current models. This ABE, issued by the german Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt, is a step into the future. While material certificates and parts certificates only examine the manufacturing process and the material of a part, for an ABE many test processes have to be passed, which in the end guarantee a smooth and safe function in the vehicle. Driving tests, load tests and even an impact and collision test are on the program. In the end, only high-quality spare parts receive the coveted title of officially approved operating permit, which is just as valid as the parts that were originally installed on the vehicle. In addition to the high quality standard, an ABE naturally has other advantages. The genuine general type approval is registration-free - this means: The Ironman 4x4 suspension only has to be installed and does not have to be specially approved by a testing organisation! As the ABE is valid for a specific vehicle, the same as the original suspension, there are no problems within the scope of the manufacturer's warranty for new vehicles. Here, simple parts certificates can lead to costly problems. So if you want to be on the safe side when it comes to off-road and suspension upgrades, go for the original - the ABE suspension from Ironman 4x4!

Load increase to 3.5 tons

Upgrading the vehicle to 3.5 tons offers great advantages in everyday life and when traveling. Many modern base vehicles with upscale equipment and a high basic weight no longer offer the customer sufficient reserves in the load. If a living cabin or other heavy equipment for vacation or everyday work is then added, the permissible total weight of the vehicle is quickly exhausted and often even significantly exceeded. In addition to the resulting safety risk of being on the road with an unstable and overloaded suspension, drivers face hefty fines in Germany and abroad if they are thrown into the balance. The increase in the permissible total weight to 3.5 tons provides clarity and safety here. This is where the strength of the Ironman4x4 suspension comes into play! Without complicated or vulnerable additional solutions such as air springs with extra compressor systems, the axle loads on a conventional Ironman4x4 suspension can be adjusted and entered in the registration papers without any further conversion with an additionally available expert opinion on the uplift.

Here, the uplift of the Australian suspension specialists offers another major advantage: Many uplifts are only possible in conjunction with the hardest available leaf and coil springs - Ironman4x4 suspensions can already be used for an uplift from the performance variant onwards. This means that even vehicles with a nominally more comfortable suspension can already benefit from the 3.5-tonne approval. When equipping a pickup with cabs or other superstructures, it is essential to pay attention to the permissible total weight, because excess weight is not only illegal and leads to fines, but is also dangerous in road traffic. Original vehicle suspensions are not designed to support a high weight over a long period of time, so replacement with a reinforced suspension is always advisable. By upgrading to 3.5 tons, Genesis Import proves that Ironman4x4 suspensions are up to these demanding tasks, exceeding the standard permissible total weight, as certified by TÜV. This is therefore a certificate that the maximum total load of 3.5 tons for passenger cars can be properly entered in the vehicle documents in accordance with the ABE for the suspension.
