RAPTOR REFRESH: THE ARB FORD RANGER RAPTOR BAR

19th November, 2020

WHEN THE EVER-POPULAR FORD RANGER WAS UPGRADED TO BECOME THE TOUGHER RANGER RAPTOR, THERE WERE DISTINCT STYLING CUES AND PERFORMANCE UPGRADES THAT DUALCAB OWNERS AROUND THE WORLD GOT EXCITED FOR. A WIDER, MORE AGGRESSIVE STANCE, A DOMINATING FRONT GRILLE AND FACTORY UPGRADED SUSPENSION WERE AMONG THOSE FEATURES THAT APPEALED TO THE MASS MARKET.

ARB’s engineering team were tasked with designing a bar that would complement the styling cues of the Raptor, while also applying the practical requirements of vehicle protection. Concluding that this vehicle warranted a new-look bar from our standard range, a sleeker, modern design was created. After months of R&D, we now have the release of the ARB Bumper Replacement bar. A stealthy, textured-black Bumper Replacement bar follows the lines to blend with the overall vehicle while offering a significant increase in frontal protection.

The top pan has laser-cut holes for a pair of compatible driving lights such as ARB Intensity, Bushranger and IPF lights, while the central opening features provisions for mounting ARB Intensity or Bushranger LED light bars (up to 920 millimetres between mounting holes), ensuring you have the light you need for your evening travels.

For most 4WDers, maximum weight saving is always front of mind so you’ll be pleased to know the Bumper Replacement Bar is constructed in aluminium, which overall gives a net weight change of just 24 kilograms. ARB’s alloy bars are strong, lightweight and supported by steel chassis mounts.

Due to the Raptor’s calibrated suspension system, the Bumper Replacement bar is not winch compatible.

Retaining the OE LED fog lights, OE tow points and OE underbody shield, the bar is finished in our signature Integrit black textured powder coat.
