Ford Ranger Upgrades, Features, & Package Options

If you love to venture off the beaten path and deep into nature, the FX4 Off-Road Package is a must-have for your Ford Ranger. This Ford Ranger upgrade includes a collection of features that make the Ford Ranger more resilient, adaptable, and capable of handling challenging environments, ensuring you can take your truck just about anywhere.

Off-Road-Tuned Shocks
The outboard-mounted shocks of this package are designed to absorb more impact compared to standard suspension systems, offering a smoother, more controlled ride even on the bumpiest surfaces. The improved suspension also enhances handling, allowing the driver to keep more control over the vehicle, regardless of how rough the path ahead may be. 

Exposed Steel Bash Plate
This heavy-duty plate protects critical underbody components such as the engine and fuel tank. This Ford Ranger upgrade ensures that your truck can endure rough impacts without sustaining significant damage.

Electronic Locking Rear Differential
The electronic locking rear differential improves traction by locking both wheels together to distribute equal power. This feature is crucial when navigating challenging surfaces like mud, sand, or loose gravel, ensuring that your truck can maintain its grip and push through even the toughest road conditions.

Selectable Drive Modes
No two terrains are the same, and this Ford Ranger upgrade makes it easy to adapt to different driving environments. The selectable drive modes offer tailored settings for Mud, Ruts, and Sand, ensuring that your Ford Ranger adjusts its performance to match the terrain. 

Ford Trail Control™
Off-roading often involves navigating steep inclines, rocky paths, and uneven surfaces where maintaining a consistent speed is crucial. Acting like cruise control for off-roading, Ford Trail Control™ manages the vehicle speed while you focus on steering. 

Ford Ranger Tow Package: Ford Performance Parts For Trailer Towing
For those who need their truck to perform as a reliable towing workhorse, the Trailer Tow Package for the Ford Ranger, which comes standard with the Raptor® trim, is the perfect Ford Ranger upgrade to enhance your towing capabilities.

Class IV Trailer Hitch Receiver
The Class IV Trailer Hitch Receiver is the core of the Trailer Tow Package, designed to handle heavy-duty loads. When properly equipped, this hitch enables the Ford Ranger to maximize its towing potential to reach up to 7,500 lbs. This Ford Ranger performance part is robust enough to support large trailers, boats, or even RVs, making the Ford Ranger one of the most capable trucks in its class.

4-/7-Pin Wiring Connector
The Trailer Tow Package also includes the 4-/7-pin wiring connector, which seamlessly integrates your trailer's electrical system with your truck. Whether you need to power trailer lights, turn signals, or breaks, this wiring setup ensures that your trailer's electrical components are connected and functioning properly, providing a safer and more convenient driving experience.

Trailer Sway Control
Towing large loads can sometimes lead to trailer sway, especially at higher speeds or in windy conditions. The Trailer Tow Package addresses this challenge with trailer sway control, an advanced system that automatically detects when your trailer begins to sway and selectively applies the brakes to individual wheels to help regain stability. This feature provides added peace of mind when towing, helping to keep your trailer aligned with your truck and preventing dangerous situations on the road.
