Old Man Emu brings racing technology to every day adventures: BP-51 (Bypass 51mm diameter bore) shock absorbers feature revolutionary, patent pending technology developed to deliver unparalleled on and off road performance. Developed and extensively tested under the harshest conditions in Australia, these big bore, position sensitive bypass shock absorbers with remote reservoir are designed to bolt onto your vehicle without any vehicle modifications and combine considerable ride comfort around town with significant amounts of end-zone damping for exceptional chassis control and handling off road. The damping performance is easily adjustable across an wide range of rebound and compression, resulting in significant changes to the ride performance of your vehicle, enabling an custom tune to suit the conditions and vehicle set up. The body, reservoir and components are all made from 6061 T6 aluminum, Type 3 40 micron hard anodized ensuring exceptional heat dissipation, corrosion resistance and resistance to stone damage. Not only designed, developed and tested entirely by ARB's team of Old Man Emu ride engineers, all BP-51 shock absorbers are manufactured in-house by ARB. In order to achieve this, significant investment has been made in state of the art machinery providing ARB total control of the manufacturing process to ensure the highest possible quality.

The Old Man Emu BP-51 Coil Over Shock Front is the pinnacle of 4x4 suspension performance specifically engineered for your Toyota Tacoma. Offering racing-derived internal bypass technology with user-adjustable damping, it is designed for the discerning enthusiast who demands the absolute best in ride quality and the ability to fine-tune their vehicle's handling for any load or terrain.
As a key component of the OME BP-51 system, this front coil over shock functions as a suspension strut, utilising gas pressure to deliver superior performance. At the heart of the BP-51’s revolutionary design is its patented, position-sensitive internal bypass damping, which allows the shock to be plush and comfortable in the normal ride zone, then progressively firmer as it approaches the limits of its travel. This prevents harsh bottoming and topping-out, ensuring unparalleled control. The mechanically adjustable shock strength via external rebound and compression adjusters gives you complete control to dial in the perfect ride for your Toyota Tacoma.
Engineered and manufactured entirely in-house by ARB, every BP-51 component is made from aircraft-grade 6061 aluminium for superior heat dissipation and corrosion resistance. With remote reservoirs for increased oil volume, the BP-51 system delivers unparalleled control and comfort without compromise for your adventures.
