1. Rooftop Tent

Who needs a hotel when you have this accessory?
 
This tent offers convenient set-up and pack-up, with the added benefit of storing all your compact bedding inside. Setting up is straightforward: unzip the cover, extend the tent using the ladder, and slide the poles into place. Packing down is made easy with internal bungee lines to assist in folding the tent. Its compact size improves aerodynamics and allows for better access to low-roof areas. The ladder can be stored on top of the packed tent or separately.

2. Under-vehicle protection panel set (steel)

Protect your Ranger Wildtrak's vulnerable parts.
 
Crafted by ARB to safeguard crucial underbody components like the sump, gearbox, and transfer case during off-road excursions, this protective shield ensures optimal durability and longevity. Its recessed mounting bolts offer both protection and ease of removal for efficient vehicle servicing. Manufactured from robust 3mm laser-cut steel, the shield is meticulously pressed, folded, zinc-plated, and powder-coated to deliver exceptional strength and resilience against rugged terrain.

3. Long-range fuel tank

Say goodbye to range anxiety!
 
This long-range fuel tank lets you push deeper into the wilderness, explore further, and conquer long roads with confidence. It has a 140-litre capacity for less stress in-between filling stations.
 

 

4. Air-compressor on-board kit

Compatible with vehicles equipped with bed liners, this compressor kit is a must-have for any utility vehicle. 
 
Ideal for off-road adventures or worksite tasks, the onboard air compressor can inflate a flat tyre or even power some air tools. Accessing the compressor is easy, thanks to a conveniently placed access panel inside the load box, complete with an on/off switch and hose connections. The kit comprises the twin-motor air compressor, mounting bracket, hose coupling plate, and switch. (Additional accessories, like the tyre inflator kit, are available separately.)
 
 

5. Smartcap EVO Canopy (Double Cab)

Want to turn your Ranger Wildtrak double-cab (find out how it differs from non-Wildtrak models here) into a more versatile family vehicle?
 
The SmartCap EVOa Adventure is a versatile stainless steel bakkie canopy, ideal for both on- and off-road escapades. Its sleek design enhances your Ranger's rugged look, while its double-walled Gullwing side doors provide convenient access to organized gear with interior MOLLE panels. Integrated roof rails and spacious openings support heavy loads, up to 45kg in motion and 350kg stationary. Plus, its positive pressure air vent keeps dust out of the cargo area. Finished in Matte Black (also available in OE White), it combines durability with style for any adventure.

6. Spare wheel lock

Keep your spare wheel attached to your bakkie!
 
The spare wheel lock accessory not only provides added security for your spare wheel but also ensures that it can only be lowered via the winch when using the included spare wheel lock key. By fitting securely to the spare wheel winch shaft, it effectively prevents access from generic spare wheel tools. The kit includes a spare wheel lock and key.

Part Number: N1WZ1A380A
