Specced for the six-cylinder version of the latest Ranger, the RAW 4x4 G61408-2566 is a shock absorber listed to fit the Ford Ranger T6.2 Next-Gen 6cyl (excluding Raptor), ute dual-cab. The 6cyl token in this listing is exactly what separates it from the four-cylinder dampers in the same family.

Why does the six-cylinder fitment matter?

Ford sells the Next-Gen Ranger in both four-cylinder and V6 form, and the suspension hardware can differ between them. The G61408-2566 is the unit RAW 4x4 lists against the 6cyl T6.2, so choosing it by drivetrain instead of guessing keeps you on the correct damper. As a shock it governs how fast the suspension compresses and rebounds; it doesn't carry the load, which is the spring's job.

What's published, and what isn't?

RAW 4x4 hasn't listed a length, valving or fitted position for the G61408-2566, so we won't quote a figure or assume whether it's a front or rear unit. We check the position and the right quantity against your build with the supplier before anything is ordered. A worn damper usually announces itself with a floaty ride and poor control over corrugations — the common reason owners come in for fresh shocks.

Confirming it suits your Next-Gen Ranger

It's listed to fit the Ford Ranger T6.2 Next-Gen 6cyl (excluding Raptor), ute dual-cab. The Raptor runs its own suspension, which is why it's specifically excluded here. Send us your exact variant and any lift already fitted and we'll confirm the G61408-2566 is right before ordering it in.

Fitting at our Illawarra workshop

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits shock absorbers in-house across the Illawarra. We renew dampers in matched pairs across an axle, swap the unit, check the mounts and bushes, then road-test the ride afterwards.

Common questions

Is the G61408-2566 the V6 damper or the four-cylinder one?
It's listed against the six-cylinder Next-Gen Ranger T6.2. The four-cylinder cars take a different part, so confirm your engine and variant with the workshop before ordering.
Does it fit a Ranger Raptor?
No. The Raptor is excluded from this listing because it uses its own suspension setup.
Will one shock change my ride height?
No. A damper controls movement, not height; ride height is set by the spring. We'd look at springs separately if lift is the goal.
