Fuel Tank Guard Ford Ranger & Mazda BT-50

This Heavy Duty Fuel Tank Guard from Superior Engineering has been designed to suit the current model PX Ford Ranger and Mazda BT-50 (Series 2) four wheel drive vehicles.

Design Objectives

The problem with running a factory fuel tank is that it’s made of plastic, which you guessed it, is prone to damage in the event of the slightest impact, leaving your fuel tank and your safety at risk.

This is the major cause of fuel tank damage while driving offroad, due to the fact that it exposes your vehicles tank to damage from various obstacles such as rocks, logs, debris and bumps.

The solution is to fit a Superior Engineering Heavy Duty “Fuel Tank Guard” to protect your factory or aftermarket fuel tank.

The tank guard is manufactured from premium grade Australian 3mm steel plate, laser cut for precise fitment, sand-blasted and then finished off in a hard wearing, semi-gloss, black powder coat for maximum durability and rust prevention.

Features a solid 1-piece design for super easy maintenance and utilises a smooth low profile for maximum ground clearance and less chance of getting hung up on obstacles.

Incorporates precisely placed dimple die holes into the design to add extra strength to the guard and to aid in airflow and drainage.

This Superior guard is 100% proudly made right here in Australia at their Burpengary warehouse, which ensures you get a true heavy duty and GENUINE component, unlike the weaker Chinese versions starting to appear in the market.

Transfer Case Guard Ford Ranger & Mazda BT-50

This Heavy Duty Transfer Case Guard from Superior Engineering has been designed to suit the current model Ford Ranger and Mazda BT-50 (Series 2) four wheel drive vehicles.

Design Objectives

The main problem with driving offroad without any underbody protection fitted to your 4×4, is that your vehicle is prone to damage in the event of any type of impact, putting your safety and your vital driveline components at risk.

The transfer case is one of the most overlooked items but is also one of the most exposed and vulnerable.

All it takes is a split second lapse while driving and your vehicle may be incapacitated from a bent, broken or leaking transfer case.

This is an all too common cause of underbody component damage while driving offroad, due to the fact that your entire driveline is exposed and your vehicle is open to untold damage from various obstacles such as rocks, logs, ruts and stumps.

The solution is to fit the newly designed Superior Engineering Transfer Case Guard which covers the entire transfer case giving you maximum protection without compromising performance of your vehicle.

These guards are considered to be one of the most basic and essential items for any 4WD that sees dirt and rock action.

This guard is proudly manufactured in Australia from premium grade Australian 4mm steel plate, laser cut for precise fitment, fabricated by trained professionals and finished off in a hard wearing, semi-gloss, black powder coat for maximum durability and rust prevention.

Features a solid 1-piece design for easy maintenance, incorporates a smooth low profile for maximum ground clearance and the ability to slide across objects without getting stuck on sharp rocks and ledges.

This underguard is CAD Engineered and fabricated with press formed sections to provide additional strength and to help dissipate forces and transfer energy from impacts safely back into the chassis and crossmember.

Another advantage is that it simply bolts directly to the chassis and crossmember utilising the original mounting points for superior strength.

This Superior Engineering underguard is 100% Street Legal and Compliant, and DOES NOT require separate approvals to be used on Public roads within Australia.

Features & Benefits

  • High Level of Protection – this transfer case guard fully covers the lower section of the transfer giving the best protection
  • Powder Coat Finish – hard wearing black powder coat finish
  • Heavy Duty Materials – manufactured from 4mm steel plate
  • Laser Cut – all plates are laser cut for a precise fitment
