Ford Vehicles Now Compatible With HVO Renewable Diesel
Continued fluctuations in fuel costs are putting pressure on many businesses, driving a significant spike in interest for electrified options like hybrids and alternative power sources.
The company says its 4x4 products, developed in the harsh proving ground of Australia, have sold there for 50 years. And they now sell in 140 countries.
Importer Terraquip NZ brings in outback tested suspension kits, shock absorbers, springs, winches, bull bars, diff locks, snorkels, recovery kits, lights, tents, etc.
Set up in 1958 as a Melbourne suspension parts maker (Jacob Spring Works) the company expanded into design and supply of leaf and coil springs for cars, trucks, buses and 4x4 vehicles. In 1988 JSW Parts launched the Ironman 4x4 brand of springs and suspension parts. The company’s product engineers are all involved in four wheel driving.
Ironman 4x4 supplies original equipment for car manufacturers, and military and mining fleets worldwide. It recently contracted to supply equipment for the US government’s fleet of 30,000 Ford Rangers in Afghanistan.
Says Terraquip founder Vince Rietveld, “Parts of this quality and affordability will make a big impact on the New Zealand market…. The majority of 4x4 vehicles in the current market are largely designed for on-road use. We can now offer quality suspension and accessories at affordable prices, that will allow the off road ability of these vehicles to be greatly enhanced.
The main warehouse and distribution centre is in Christchurch; 12 dealers and fitters operate from Northland to Southland. The company shipped 100,000 suspension kits last year.
