MOAB, Utah, April 6, 2009 – Rancho® has released a new 6-in. long-travel suspension system for the popular 2008-09 Polaris Ranger RZR to deliver increased suspension travel, improved ground clearance and enhanced stability.

Available through performance retailers nationwide, the new race-inspired Rancho suspension system for the 2008-09 Polaris Ranger RZR (p/n RS10101) was designed and tested by Rancho, one of the world’s most recognized brands of off-road suspension components and accessories. Rancho is manufactured and marketed by Tenneco Inc. (NYSE: TEN). Rancho products are on display this week at the Spanish Trail Arena during the Easter Jeep Safari, sponsored by the Red Rock 4-Wheelers, Inc., Moab, Utah.

The Rancho Polaris Ranger RZR system (p/n RS10101) includes billet 6061 aluminum upper control 6-in. A-arms with contrast machining, HSLA steel lower control arms designed for high-clearance, and exclusive self-lubricating control arm bushings.

The Rancho RZR system increases the A-arm width by six inches and the wheelbase by four inches (two inches added to the front and two inches added to the rear). The system provides 13 inches of wheel travel to the UTV.
