Ford Ranger Torsion Bars

A torsion bar is the main weight bearing spring in any torsion suspension. As a further development of suspension technology introduced by J. Walter Christie in the 1930s, a torsion bar suspension that appeared by the end of World War II was first used for tanks and other heavy combat machines. Combining high suspension travel, small vertical dimensions, and great capability, a torsion bar suspension is still commonly installed on military vehicles such as the M1 Abrams, German Leopard 2, and Russian T-72. Such suspension type is also used by automakers producing SUVs and pickup trucks.

The suspension in your Ranger, just like the one in a military vehicle, is a long-lasting assembly. However, even such a solid assembly may be damaged in an auto accident or get worn as a result of many miles of a bumpy ride. Fortunately, on our virtual shelves, you’ll find a great variety of Ford Ranger torsion bars & components, ball joints, shocks & struts, control arms, and other suspension parts.
