    Coffee Set Ups

    I use a Wacao nespresso hand machines. It's takes up no space at all and is consistent.

    2017 3.2ltr Ford Ranger Dual Cab XLT

    Recovery: X-Bull 12,000lb front winch with synthetic rope. Not much to say about this other than it is huge, but no larger than any other 12,000lb winch. Fits under the Ironman bumper and still has some room between the winch and the intercooler. I had the control box on top of the bumper...

    2017 3.2ltr Ford Ranger Dual Cab XLT

    Recovery: Front recovery points. At a working load of 5000kg a side, these RoadSafe recovery points are not going to be the week point of a recovery! Unless you have tiny hands, pay somebody else to install these. those Nut on Wires are a nightmare. I didn't know my arm and hands could bend in...

    Hello thanks for the welcome! Whilst their is plenty of choice for mods here, the US market always expands it further. Thankfully they have large luggage allowance between US & Oz!

    2017 3.2ltr Ford Ranger Dual Cab XLT

    Ironman steel rear bumper This is a pretty sturdy piece of kit. The rear clearance has improved significantly and the side bars will protect the tub. It's great when the rear slips and slides into something hard. The top of the bumper is good for standing items like a beer or even just sitting...

    2017 3.2ltr Ford Ranger Dual Cab XLT

    Ironman steel brush bars and side steps The standard side steps were plastic and pretty low (although they manage to withstand a beating). These ones a a lot better although one of the brackets sits lower than the bar so I won't be sliding on any rocks. The brush bars already paid for...

    2017 3.2ltr Ford Ranger Dual Cab XLT

    Armor continued: Ironman steel underbody protection (engine/transmission) This is 4mm steel and protects the engine and transmission. It's pretty heavy but wasn't that hard to install by myself with just a trolley jack. As you can see by the photos I've given it a bit of a bashing already...

    2017 3.2ltr Ford Ranger Dual Cab XLT

    Armor: Ironman 4x4 steel front bumper There is what seems like an endless choice for steelwork in Australia. I liked the look of the Ironman 4x4 brand and the price is fantastic compared to some of the more well known brands. I decided to fit this myself . Whilst a "professional" would have it...

    2017 3.2ltr Ford Ranger Dual Cab XLT

    I think they are great bits of kit and that's probably reflected in them always taking the #1 or #2 spots in Australian Ute sales. They are pretty capable off the shelf and even better once modified.
