The new 2023 Ford Ranger is here, and it’s a big deal for both enthusiasts looking for their next ute, and the aftermarket industry tasked with developing quality accessories to enhance the new platform further.

The team at TJM have been hard at work developing a full range of premium off-road focused accessories to suit the new model Ranger, and we can now reveal what some of these key items will look like.

We all know building and accessorising our four-wheel drives is half the fun of owning one, especially an all-new model. While the new 2023 Ford Ranger is a good thing in stock trim, by adding the right quality 4WD accessories such as this new range from TJM, gives buyers the chance to transform the 2023 Ford Ranger in to an absolute weapon off road.

“Creating the 4x4 accessories for the new Ranger has been nothing short of incredible,” said Peter Sparkes, head of engineering at TJM.

“Building on the same premium quality and reliability our customers expect from us, we’ve pushed the boundaries, made new discoveries, unlocked new innovations and pioneered market firsts.

“And, in the next few months, we’re excited to be able to fit out these incredible vehicles and give new owners the accessories they need to be truly 4x4 equipped no matter where they end up.”

Pricing has also just been announced for the new range of 2023 Ford Ranger TJM accessories, so let's take a closer look at what the TJM team has created for the new Ranger.

Suspension

The Ford Ranger is one of the best handling utes on the market, so it’s important to ensure any aftermarket additions enhance the way the vehicle performs on- and off-road. TJM tells us its engineers have worked tirelessly to develop and build upon its suspension systems, and their hard work has led to the development of an all-new suspension line-up.

6

TJM has designed three different XGS Suspension ranges to cater for all 4x4 enthusiasts: XGS Rugged, XGS Roamer and XGS Remote. Key focus points during development include controlled bounce to improved control under braking, responsive and stable steering, improved towing performance and so much more. The XGS Suspension has been designed and engineered to ensure Ranger can handle absolutely anything.

Also, arriving in the next few months, are the XGS Upper Control Arms designed to solve castor and camber adjustment for every inch you lift your Ranger. Along with GVM Plus upgrades, new Ranger owners will be spoiled for choice when it comes to suspension upgrades.

Pricing

Various pricing, dependent on setup. See your local TJM outlet for the right suspension to suit your needs.

Front and rear protection

Modern bullbars need to not only look the part, but they also have a serious job to do, namely protect your vehicle from animal strike, and provide a solid platform to mount accessories such as winches and driving lights.

TJM’s Venturer Bar sports integrated 8000kg-rated recovery points as standard and an all-steel construction, just like the TJM Outback Bull Bar, the Venturer Bar is equipped with everything you need. From provisions for spotlights and off-road work lights to dual aerial mounting positions, winch compatibility and recovery jack points, all wrapped up in a one-of-one head-turning, tapered, angular design.

It is also airbag compatible, meets ADR compliance, and provides an improved approach angle when driving through technical terrain.

Underbody guards

TJM has actually been designing and engineering 4WD underbody protection for more than 15 years now, so developing a system for the new Ford Ranger was a no-brainer. Its Underbody Guards are for those who regularly take their 4x4 off road, and want to protect vital and potentially vulnerable components underneath the new Ranger.

Backed by a press-formed steel construction for maximum impact strength, TJM tells us its Underbody Guards are equipped to take some serious brunt from rigid obstacles such as tree stumps, piercing rocks or loose logs with absolutely no fuss.

Finished in a special electro coating, TJM also mentions this provides up to 500 hours of corrosion resistance, while the unique design assists with ventilation and provides additional strength where it’s needed.

Side bars and steps

Constructed from heavy-duty 63mm steel tubing and finished in a black satin powder-coating to maximise durability, TJM Side Bars are chassis mounted for increased strength and protection on- and off-road.

They are also of a modular design, allowing you to have Side Steps fitted to your Ranger and the option of adding Side Bars later on down the track. Not only do they look the part, and offer increased protection when off road; they also make accessing the vehicle far easier if you have kids or are how do we say ... vertically challenged.

Snorkel

Rounding off the range of TJM 4X4 accessories to suit the 2023 Ford Ranger, is the Airtec Snorkel. For any and all off-roading, preventing dust and water from entering your engine is an absolute must, fitting a snorkel really is cheap insurance for the life of the vehicle.

Being a new shape, developing an Airtec Snorkel to suit the Ranger’s unique body shape would be an engineering challenge, which TJM has done a great job with. TJM says the design itself offers incredible impact resistance and durability in extreme temperatures, as well as being sealed against water and dust ingress.

Cost to build our ultimate TJM Ford Ranger

Here’s a bit of a run-down on what it would cost to build our version of the ultimate TJM Ford Ranger, using the pricing available to us.

Please note, we haven’t included fitting costs and there are too many variables when it comes to suspension, so we've left that out of our list. However, it definitely helps get the ball rolling to see roughly what it would cost to deck out a 2023 Ranger with TJM gear.
