GREATER PERFORMANCE : THE BENEFIT OF BP-51

Whilst an Old Man Emu suspension system incorporating Nitrocharger shock absorbers is a vast improvement over standard suspension systems for both on and off road use, by design, there are always compromises between comfort and control.

Old Man Emu’s BP-51 high-performance bypass shock absorbers bring the latest in racing bypass technology to everyday 4WDers, giving the ability to customise their ride with user adjustable compression and rebound damping control while still being fully compatible with Old Man Emu springs and suspension related components.

3 Years Warranty

ARB prides itself on creating the best products that offer quality, reliability and practicality above all else. Naturally all ARB products manufactured and distributed by us come with a three years nationwide warranty.

Closer Look

The BP-51 is a user adjustable internal bypass 4WD shock absorber that delivers increased comfort and control; both on and off road. All BP-51 shock absorbers are designed and manufactured in-house by ARB using state of the art machining and hard anodising equipment.

The body of a BP-51 shock absorber is manufactured using 6061 anodised aluminium to dissipate heat more efficiently than steel or alloy steel and provide superior corrosion resistance. Extensive dyno, real world and destructive testing has been undertaken during the development process to ensure that reliability, longevity and performance all meet ARB’s impeccable standards.
