- Hi Everyone,
Dave's uprating this brand new Ford Ranger Wildtrak with an airbag suspension set. Not only will this increase the train weight - perfect for towing a lightweight 5th wheel - but there are loads of other benefits too.
• Minimizing road noise and vibrations for a smoother ride
• Enhancing driver comfort to combat fatigue during extended trips
• Enhancing stability, steering precision, handling, and braking performance
• Automatically adapting ride height in response to varying road conditions
• Preventing rear-end "dip" - keeping the front of the truck/headlights level
• Diminishing the rate of wear and tear on tyres and suspension components
As part of our installation service we also process all the paperwork with DVLC to ensure your vehicle's correct tow capacity is registered, and your door tag updated.
Checkout how Dave goes about installing the suspension upgrade on this new Wildtrak. If you'd like us to do this for you just get in touch via our website at www.CCRV.co.uk.
All the best from everyone down here at CCRV!

Far easier than the ranger model before this one
Yes, definitely, they made to be fitted quite easy. All the best, Paul
LOL, no bad language on this video. Great video, very good info.
That mod would not get certified in Australia we have different rules.
What is the train Weight of Ford Ranger in Australia then it’s six ton here and the license to operate. It is through SVT
I assume you mean the combined weight of the car and van. We call this the GCM the Gross Combined Mass and the weight of the vehicle the GVM gross Vehicle Mass the replacement of the bump stop for an air bag while legal here does not allow for an increase in the GVM. the reason I have been told is that the leaf spring carries the constant load over two engineered points so the chassis will not be unduly stressed. The replacing of the bump stop puts stress on the chassis in the center point which it is not designed for. As an example my new Ranger wildtrak V6 is getting a GVM and GCM upgrade to GVM 3700KG, and Tow 3500KG, GCM 7200KG, this is only allowed with the use of leaf springs and new shack absorbers.@@CCRVUK
Does this solve the problem of bumps?
Yes, much smoother ride
just beacuse you add air bags it dose not increase the towing maybe pay load but not towing
Hi, it uprated the train. weight of the Ford Ranger from 6 tonnes to 7
How much do you charge to have this fitted?
Hi, Peter, about £1200 plus VAT includes all the paperwork needed
@@CCRVUK thank you
