BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 tyres

• RRP: POA

Off the back of the success of its well-renowned KO2, BFGoodrich has launched its All-Terrain T/A KO3 tyre which will be available to purchase from Monday September 2.

Said to outperform the K02 in regards to treadwear, traction and toughness, the KO3 incorporates the latest tyre tech including CoreGard Technology to give it superior sidewall toughness. Plus, an Advanced Deflection Design is said to help prevent objects from snagging and splitting the sidewall.

The KO3 has been engineered with a new tread pattern and all-terrain tread compoint, to make it more durable. Other features to optimise performance include full-depth 3D locking sipes; a serrated shoulder design; and mud-phobic bars. As a sum of its parts, BFG says the KO3 stops a total of 4.2 metres shorter than its predecessor.

“We’ve done a lot of racing and research in the 10 years since we launched the KO2 tyre, so a decade of data, feedback, technology and experience went into the development of the KO3 tyre,” said Harold Phillips, BFGoodrich Global General Manager. “We are our own competition, and we knew it was time to take the all-terrain tyre to another level. It will be exciting to see what consumers will do – at work and at play – with the KO3 tyre.”

BFG states that 38 tyres will be released in three phases, once the tyre launches on September 2. Following that, an additional 18 sizes will be added in 2025, with four more sizes arriving in 2026. In total, more than 60 sizes will be available over the next two years.

Ironman 4x4 Raid tub rack

• RRP: $1950
• Designed for: Ranger

Designed to complement the all-new Raid canopy and Raid roof rack, the Raid tub rack by Ironman 4x4 will give a next-gen Ford Ranger extensive storage and customisation options.

The modular system is specific to the Ranger, allowing the vehicle’s tub to remain accessible when fitted. It measures 1575mm x 557mm x 550mm and weighs 54kg.

When combined with the just-launched Raid roof rack, the versatile set-up provides a full-length storage solution. Mounting a roof-top tent is simple once the rack is installed; plus it also features an integrated tub-strengthening kit. The Raid tub rack comes with a three-year warranty.

Ironman 4x4 Raid roof rack

• RRP: $1295
• Designed for: Ranger and Triton

In combination with the release of the Raid canopy and Raid tub rack, Ironman 4x4 has also debuted its Raid roof rack. The aluminium roof rack – currently available for the current-gen Ford Ranger and Mitsubishi MV Triton – is slated to be available in showrooms in December.

Designed to follow the natural curves of the vehicles’ roofline, the Raid roof rack features a sleek, low-profile design; hidden cross-beam fasteners; folded aluminium blades for increased strength; and a built-in wind deflector to minimise noise.

The customisable modular system is also designed to be compatible with light bars and accessories. Plus, each cross beam can hold up to 25kg and features a standard T-slot on the top and incorporated drainage paths. The Raid roof rack comes with a three-year warranty.

Ironman 4x4 roller drawer system

• RRP: Starts from $995

Ironman 4x4 has unveiled a brand new set of roller drawers, at the 2024 Melbourne 4x4 Show held recently.

The drawer system has been designed and built from the ground up, utilising a combination of 6051-T5 and die-cast aluminium. This combo results in a weight of just 18kg for the single mid-height drawer – or just 23kg for the mid-height roll-top variation. In fact, Ironman 4x4 states that you can expect a 20 to 25 per cent weight saving compared to a like-for-like system. Great for strict payloads.

Despite these weight savings, the units remain strong – the full length, full-height drawers can hold up to 120kg per drawer; and, when fully extended, the roll-top flooring can handle 100kg (that’s easily a fully stocked fridge/freezer).

The drawers utilise a patented roller-bearing slide system, and all drawers feature a lock-out mechanism when extended for safety and convenience.

Appearances are important, and Ironman has opted for a neat-looking black mottled carpet on the top and sides; the fascia is made from automotive-grade ABS; and the handles are cast alloy. Other features of the drawers include two T-slot channels with rubber trim; internal strip lighting (AA battery-powered); and all drawers can be mixed and matched to create a system that works for you.

Ironman 4x4 Raid canopy

• RRP Trade Pack: $4500
• RRP Premium Pack: $4950

Ironman 4x4’s all-new Raid canopy is manufactured using precision-folded and braced 2mm 5058-grade aluminium and weighs just 65kg (give or take) but comes with a dynamic load limit of 180kg and a static load limit of 350kg. However, just to be certain, Ironman 4x4 loaded 2000kg on the roof during testing and the canopy held its shape.

Captive nutserts set into the roof of the canopy allow for the easy fitment of additional accessories; while cable management paths wind through the length of the canopy to keep things nice and tidy. A patented air-pressure vent at the front of the canopy reduces dust ingress, and integrated roof rails are standard.

Two Raid options are available: the Trade Pack (aluminium panels on all four sides); and the Premium Pack (front glass window and rear glass door, but panels and windows can be mixed and matched).

Ironman 4x4 says that fitment will take a two-person team about two hours, with difficulty rated as medium. It comes with a three-year warranty.

Ironman 4x4 IM2.5 monotube shock absorber

• RRP IM2.5 shock absorbers: $350 per unit
• RRP IM2.5 pre-assembled coil-over struts: $630 per unit

Ironman 4x4 has introduced its all-new IM2.5 monotube shock absorber at the 2024 Melbourne 4x4 Show, held at the Melbourne Showgrounds.

The 2.5-inch extruded aluminium monotube – manufactured from 3-4mm 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminium and finished with a Type 2 hard-anodising – has been designed with comfort in mind, with Ironman that the IM2.5 is the “perfect suspension companion for 4x4 owners who really value all-day ride comfort and plush off-road performance”.

In addition to creating a smooth ride over all sorts of terrain, the monotube shock is designed to better handle harsher surface changes typically encountered when off-road.

This ride comfort is achieved in part thanks to the addition of a 57mm piston that has a 60-per-cent larger surface area than the Foam Cell Pro unit.

The IM2.5 monotube strut assemblies will be sold with black coils. Black coil springs will also be available for vehicles such as 300 Series (rear) and 70 Series (front and rear).

Specs include:

• Tube: 2.5-inch outer diameter
• 3-4mm wall thickness
• Extruded 6061 T6 aluminium
• Type 2 anodised
• Fuchs hydraulic oil
• High-pressure 200psi nitrogen
• Billet aluminium IFP
• High-pressure NOK seals
• Billet aluminium piston
• CNC-machined
• Oring sealed PTFE-Teflon band
• 57mm diameter piston
• 20mm hardened piston rod

The shocks are backed by an unlimited kilometre, four-year warranty.

Cooper Rugged Trek tyre

• RRP: POA

Cooper reckons it has solved the age-old problem of choosing between an all-terrain tyre and a mud-terrain tyre by introducing the Rugged Trek, which it describes as a hybrid tyre.

While most all-terrain tyres are good on gravel and on- and off-road, they can lack traction in the mud; whereas mud tyres are great off-road but noisier on-road and with a higher wear rate. The Cooper Rugged Trek is said to offer the characteristics you look for in an aggressive mud-terrain tyre, while still giving you the mileage and performance of an all-terrain.

It features a four-rib design, open shoulder blocks and side-biters for off-road traction. The latest tread design provides a larger footprint, and unique internal siping improves wet-road performance. The tyre comes with a 14.7mm tread depth and a mileage guarantee of up to 80,000km.
