Tailgate Central Locking for Ford Ranger NextGen 2023+
The Ford Ranger NextGen 2023+ is one of Australia's best-selling utes, built for work and off-road use. This tailgate central locking kit adds the one security feature it's missing out of the factory — an integrated tailgate lock that operates from your existing key fob. Every time you lock your doors, the tailgate locks with them. Every time you unlock, it releases. There's nothing extra to carry, remember, or install on top.
Features:
- Integrates directly with the Ranger NextGen's factory central locking system
- Vehicle-specific actuator and mounting bracket — no modification required
- Plug-and-play harness using OEM connector types
- Automatic lock and unlock with door operation
- No drilling into body panels or tailgate skin
- Suits dual cab and extra cab variants
Fitment:
This kit fits the Ford Ranger NextGen (P703) 2023 model year and above, including XL, XLS, XLT, Sport, Wildtrak and Raptor variants. It does not suit the previous-generation Ranger (PX1–PX3). Check your build year before ordering.
Complete your Ranger setup with a sliding tray or tub mat from UniUte.
