Outback Armour Suspension for Ford Ranger PY (2022+) 4cyl Diesel
Upgrade your Ford Ranger PY (2022+) 4cyl Diesel with an Australian-engineered Outback Armour suspension kit. Outback Armour designs these kits to handle corrugations, mining roads and remote touring while still driving well on the highway. Heavy-duty twin-tube shocks, matched springs and quality hardware work together to give you improved control, comfort and load carrying for real-world 4×4 use.
Why choose Outback Armour?
- Australian engineering tailored for demanding off-road conditions
- Large-body shocks and high-flow pistons that deliver consistent damping under load
- Coil or leaf springs matched to your specific vehicle loads and accessories
- Options that suit unladen daily drivers through to heavy touring rigs
Shock Options: Performance, Digressive & Adjustable Bypass
Performance Range
The Performance range uses robust 60Â mm twin-tube shocks with high-flow internals. This setup provides a solid all-round ride for mixed on-road and off-road use. It suits daily-driven 4x4s that regularly tour, tow or travel on gravel roads without needing external adjustment knobs.
Digressive (DSV) Shocks
Digressive (DSV) shocks use firmer low-speed damping that tapers off as shock speed increases. In practice, you get:
- A planted, stable feel on the bitumen and during cornering
- A smoother, more compliant response over corrugations and rough tracks
- Improved control of body roll and pitching when loaded or towing
If you want a strong balance between highway manners and serious off-road ability, the Digressive option usually hits the sweet spot.
Adjustable Bypass Shocks
For maximum control, Adjustable Bypass shocks incorporate an internally-adjustable bypass system with 20+ stages of damping adjustment. You can soften the shocks for comfort around town or firm them up for heavy loads, towing or faster off-road driving.
- 20+ click positions for precise front and rear tuning
- Adjustment for changing loads, terrain and driving style
- Ideal for vehicles that regularly switch between unladen and fully loaded
In short: dial them towards comfort for a plush ride, or towards control when you need the vehicle to stay tight and composed.
Spring & Load Options: Trail, Expedition & Expedition HD
Each Outback Armour kit pairs springs and shocks to suit how you actually use your 4×4. For the rear, you can choose from the following options:
Trail – Unladen / Light Load
Trail kits suit unladen or lightly-laden vehicles. They work well if your Ford Ranger PY (2022+) 4cyl Diesel serves mainly as a daily driver or weekend tourer with only occasional camping gear. You gain improved ride, stability and lift height without needing a heavy constant load.
Expedition – Moderate Constant Load
Expedition kits support vehicles carrying a moderate constant load such as rear drawers, a fridge, small canopy setups, medium roof racks or touring gear. They offer more support and control than stock suspension without the firmness of the HD option.
Expedition HD – Heavy Constant Load
Expedition HD kits suit heavy, permanent loads including steel canopies, long-range tanks, full drawer systems, rear bars, spare carriers and larger touring setups. The springs carry significant constant weight, keeping the vehicle at the correct height and maintaining stability while preventing bottoming out.
If your 4×4 runs heavy most of the time, Expedition HD will generally be the right choice.
Expedition XHD – Extreme Constant Load
Expedition XHD kits cater to very heavy, constant loads where the vehicle remains permanently built and operates close to GVM. This option suits Ford Ranger PY (2022+) 4cyl Diesel fitted with large steel canopies, full drawer and fridge systems, long-range fuel tanks, rear bars with spare carriers, tools and work equipment.
