The Supashock 4x4 dampers that come with the lift kit for your Ford Ranger operate unlike any other product on the market. They feature world leading damping technology that provides you with off-road capability for your Ford Ranger that is not available anywhere else.
The Supashock lift kit system is designed, manufactured, assembled and tested in Australia, for Australian conditions, so you can drive your Ford Ranger through the toughest terrain you can throw at it – thanks to Supashock lift.
The 4x4 dampers used in our Ford Ranger Lift Kit are derived from the same technologies Supashock have developed for high-performance lift applications such as V8 Supercars, the factory fitted suspension of the legendary HSV GTS-R W1, the suspension upgrade on the HSV Colorado SportsCat, and active and passive suspension systems for military vehicles.
The dampers in the Supashock lift kit for your Ford Ranger are specifically tuned for the Ranger by our experienced chassis systems engineers to provide superior lift, comfort and performance in all driving conditions that your Ford Ranger will face.
The proprietary piston and valve design inside the dampers in the Ranger Supashock lift kit has been developed to offer high force response and wheel control for maximum traction in both on-road and off-road applications, so imagine the kind of grip your Ford Ranger 4x4 will get with Supashock lift.
Applying this technology to the Supashock 4x4 range of lift kits provides Supashock equipped vehicles like your Ranger with unrivalled handling and braking performance, without compromising ride quality. Your Ford Ranger will be able to tackle almost any terrain with a Supashock lift kit.

WHY SUPASHOCK 4X4 SUSPENSION FOR MY FORD RANGER?
Australian Made - Every lift kit is designed, tested, manufactured and assembled in Australia.
Technology - The same technology used in every lift kit has also been used in Motorsport, Mining and Defence.
Materials - Every lift kit is manufactured from aerospace alloys.
Durability - Each lift kit has far superior strength compared to competitor and OEM products, maximising service life.
A key feature of each 4x4 damper in a Ford Ranger Supashock lift kit is Supashock’s patented Shell Reservoir System, which consists of a floating piston that separates the pressurised gas and oil inside the shock absorber. The large-diameter main shaft of the lift kit allows a high oil volume without the need for an external reservoir, providing the performance of a monotube damper with the packaging benefits of a twin-tube design.
This large oil volume combined with a billet aluminium damper piston makes the Supashock 4x4 dampers in this kit extremely thermally efficient for your Ford Ranger.
This results in consistent performance and superior lift for your Ford Ranger during extended use on rough roads or when tackling those rough corrugations that make other dampers overheat and lose performance. This lowers the likelihood of shock fade meaning that you maintain handling response and therefore safety, no matter where you drive your Ford Ranger – all thanks to your Supashock lift kit.

Can I soften the suspension of my Ford Ranger?
Absolutely! Don’t put up with a rough ride in your Ranger just because you decided to lift it. Once you have a lift kit for your vehicle, you can improve your ride quality with the following:
- Ensure you get regular maintenance for your Ranger to keep your lift parts in good condition (and replace your worn parts too)
- Check the shock absorbers on your Ranger to make sure they haven’t worn and need to be replaced

- Heavier spring rates are good for load carrying, however using a heavy constant load spring on your Ranger could be contributing to your rough ride quality as well
- You have to make sure that the springs you use for your Ranger are suitable for its accessories and load carrying
