Melton 4WD specialises in creating Ironman 4X4 suspension solutions and packages suited for all types of 4WDs.
Whether you are looking for shock absorbers, coil springs, leaf springs, bushes or a world of individual parts, we've got your 4WD sorted. Especially since every part comes with a comes with a 4 year, unlimited km warranty. Ready? Let's go.
SUSPENSION KITS
Melton 4WD offers a complete integrated Ironman 4×4 range of suspension kits, designs which have evolved over 50 years of suspension experience.
We recognise that there is no single solution practical for the varying needs of 4×4 owners and different driving conditions, therefore Ironman 4×4 offer a wide selection of matched components, onxce fitted will transform the vehicle around the drivers needs.
WHAT DO YOU GET?
ALL LEAF SPRING KITS CONTAIN: Springs, Shock Absorbers, Ubolts and Bushes.
ALL COIL SPRING KITS CONTAIN: Springs and Shock Absorbers.
Ironman 4x4 also offer various optional components further enhancing suspension performance or geometry correction purposes. Such components include Greasable Shackles & Pins, Steering Damper, Caster Correction, Trim Packers, Suspension Arms.

NITRO GAS SHOCK ABSORBERS
Who's up to smooth out the bump and grind on the road? Ironman 4X4 pressurised shock absorbers helps to boost performance and adapts to a wide range of driving styles.
NITROGEN GAS PRESSURISED - Low pressure nitrogen gas dramatically reduces the likelihood of oil aeration and shock fade.
35mm TEFLON BANDED PISTON - Precision shim-stack piston specifically valved by Ironman suspension engineers, banded with teflon for smooth long life operation.
54mm TWIN TUBE BODY - Increased oil volume for improved cooling and endurance, Twin tube construction protects internal components from rock damage.
16mm HARD CHROME PISTON ROD - Hardened and polished, volumetrically balanced to piston size.
FLEXIBLE RUBBER BUSHES - Offers quieter operation and reduces damaging side loads from shock absorber.
TRIPLE-LIP HIGH PRESSURE NOK SEAL - Maximum gas and oil retention ability to withstand high displacement offroad use.
SUPPLIMENTARY WELDED MOUNTS - Fusion welded and supplementary welded for maximum strength and reliability.
SINGLE PIECE BILLET EYE RINGS AND STEMS - Ultra robust design prevents breakage or bending of mounts.
VEHICLE SPECIFIC VALVING - Every part number is specially valved for each vehicle application, this ensures the best possible ride and handling as intended by Ironman suspension engineers.
IMPACT RESISTANT STONE SHIELD - Steel or Polyethylene dust shield protects piston rod from impacts and road debris.

FOAM CELL SHOCK ABSORBERS
Eat potholes for breakfast. Ironman 4x4 Foam Cell Shock Absorbers are designed to enhance off-road durability and performance whilst providing improved on-road suspension.
FOAM CELL TECHNOLOGY - Micro-Cellular closed cell foam insert maximises cooling efficiency by occupying less internal space than gas within a pressurised shock absorber. Greater oil capacity and more surface area maintains lower operating temperatures.
40mm TEFLON BANDED PISTON - Precision shim-stack piston specifically valved by Ironman suspension engineers, banded with teflon for smooth long life operation.
60mm TWIN TUBE BODY - 50%-100% more oil volume than a gas shock absorber for superior cooling and endurance. Twin tube construction protects internal components from rock damage.
18mm HARD CHROME PISTON ROD - Hardened and polished, volumetrically balanced to piston size.
FLEXIBLE RUBBER BUSHES - Offers quieter operation and reduces damaging side loads from shock absorber.

FOAM CELL PRO SHOCK ABSORBERS
Who’s up take it to the extreme? Ironman 4x4 Foam Cell Pro Shock Absorbers are built to handle anything, in all conditions.
FOAM CELL TECHNOLOGY - Micro-Cellular closed cell foam insert maximises cooling efficiency by occupying less internal space than gas within a pressurised shock absorber. Greater oil capacity and more surface area maintains lower operating temperatures.
45mm TEFLON BANDED PISTON - Precision shim-stack piston specifically valved by Ironman suspension engineers, banded with teflon for smooth long life operation.
65-72mm TWIN TUBE BODY - 50%-100% more oil volume than a gas shock absorber for superior cooling and endurance. Twin tube construction protects internal components from rock damage.
20mm HARD CHROME PISTON ROD - Hardened and polished, volumetrically balanced to piston size.
FLEXIBLE RUBBER BUSHES - Offers quieter operation and reduces damaging side loads from shock absorber.

MONOTUBE IM2.5 SHOCK ABSORBERS
Designed to provide improved safety and handling while offering greater load carrying and ground clearance.
THE ALUMINIUM ADVANTAGE - Aluminium is lighter than steel, in fact, the IM2.5 offers a 30% weight reduction over a twin-tube steel shock absorber. Additionally, the use of aircraft-grade 6061-T6 Aluminium in the IM2.5 offers improved cooling, which in turn means a shock absorber which can run harder, for longer, without diminishing its performance. Aluminium is known for its improved heat management and has 4 times the thermal conductivity of steel.
ULTIMATE TUNING -The IM2.5 Monotube suspension series features a CNC ported billet aluminium piston with a O-Ring sealed PTFE-Teflon band. The precision channelling allows for ultimate tuning to soften the smallest of bumps in the road. The billet aluminium Internal Floating Piston (IFP) features class-leading NOK seals and separates the high-pressure 200PSI nitrogen gas from the Fuchs hydraulic oil.
BUILT TO LAST - With a wall thickness ranging 3-4mm across the range, the IM2.5 monotube shock absorber tube is finished with ultra thick and durable Type 2 anodising, for ultimate protection.
The monotube tech has also allowed us to mount the shock absorbers ‘upside down’ keeping the monotube body mounted high away from rocks and debris, and the 20mm hardened steel piston rod is downward yet protected by a robust dirt shield.
