Product Overview: Ranger Raptor Long Ranger Fuel Tank Skid Plate
The ALMONT4WD Ford Next-Gen Ranger Raptor Long Ranger Fuel Tank Skid Plate is a dedicated underbody protection panel for vehicles fitted with the 140L Long Ranger extended-range fuel tank. It is made for Ranger Raptor owners who drive off road, tour long distances or build expedition-ready trucks and want targeted armour around the upgraded fuel tank area.
A larger fuel tank improves range, but it also places an expensive and critical part of the vehicle in a position where rocks, ruts, debris and trail impacts can become a real concern. This ALMONT4WD skid plate helps shield the tank, fuel lines and exposed underbody areas, reducing the risk of damage when the route gets rough.
Why the Long Ranger Tank Needs Dedicated Underbody Protection
This is the Long Ranger tank version, not the standard fuel tank plate. The buyer decision is important: if your Ranger Raptor has the 140L Long Ranger extended-range tank, this is the ALMONT4WD fuel tank skid plate designed for that setup. If your vehicle still uses the standard tank configuration, choose the ALMONT4WD Ranger Raptor standard fuel tank skid plate instead.
For remote travel, a damaged fuel tank can quickly become more than an inconvenience. Dedicated tank armour helps protect your range, your fuel system and your ability to keep moving when support is not nearby. It is a practical upgrade for owners who have already invested in an extended-range tank and want to protect it properly.
Who This Long Ranger Tank Skid Plate Is For
This skid plate is suited to Ford Next-Gen Ranger Raptor builds where the fuel tank area is exposed to off-road impacts or long-distance touring conditions.
- Ranger Raptor owners with a 140L Long Ranger fuel tank
- Overland and expedition builds carrying extra kit or travelling remote routes
- Drivers using rocky trails, rutted tracks, forest routes or rough access roads
- Owners wanting targeted protection for the fuel tank and nearby underbody areas
- Buyers building a wider ALMONT4WD skid plate package around the Ranger Raptor chassis

Complete the Ranger Raptor Underbody Protection Setup
Fuel tank protection is only one part of a serious underbody armour package. If you are protecting the drivetrain and rear axle area as well, the ALMONT4WD gearbox and transfer skid plate and ALMONT4WD rear differential skid plate are natural companion upgrades for the same vehicle platform.
For a broader armour package in one purchase, compare the ALMONT4WD Ford Next-Gen Ranger Raptor full underbody plate kit. It may be the better route if you are planning several skid plates at once rather than protecting only the Long Ranger tank.
Fitment and Before Ordering Checks
Fitment is specific to the Ford Next-Gen Ranger Raptor fitted with the 140L Long Ranger fuel tank. It is not for the standard Ranger Raptor fuel tank configuration.
Before ordering, check the vehicle's tank setup carefully. If extra underbody accessories or other armour parts are already fitted, confirm clearance around the fuel tank area before installation. Contact Hoonies Adrenaline if you are unsure whether your Ranger Raptor has the correct Long Ranger tank configuration.
Installation and Use Notes
The skid plate is designed to mount using factory points, so drilling is not required. The supplied hardware and instructions support a clean installation, while the dedicated Long Ranger tank application helps keep the correct focus on the extended fuel tank area.
As with any underbody armour installation, the vehicle should be checked after heavy off-road use. Inspect mounting points and the plate surface for signs of impact, movement or contact with other accessories, especially if the vehicle is regularly used in rocky terrain.
