Why Upgrade Your Suspension?

From the factory, most new 4WD vehicles are tuned for comfort during on road driving. Once weight is added in the form of accessories, passengers and cargo, performance and reliability suffer, especially when road conditions deteriorate.

Old Man Emu provide quality, application specific aftermarket suspension that is designed to increase load carrying capability and improve both vehicle handling and comfort across all terrains. A range of options provides increased ground clearance to better tackle more challenging terrain, and unlike some other accessories, you’ll notice the benefits of a new suspension system every time you drive your vehicle.

 

Why Old Man Emu?

Suspension systems, especially when referring to 4WDs, are extremely complex. Determining the right solution for each 4WD requires special attention to many factors, with weight being the most critical. Old Man Emu 4×4 suspension by ARB approaches this in a unique way.

Instead of offering a compilation of parts that have been chosen primarily to increase the vehicle’s ride height, OME 4×4 suspension provides a range

of tuned, matched and integrated systems, each offering optimum levels of comfort, load carrying capability and control characteristics.

The complete Old Man Emu suspension range incorporates more than just 4×4 shock absorbers and springs. At ARB, we take integration to the highest level with our own selection of bushes, U bolts, centre bolts, spring liners, trim packers and suspension fitting kits.

BP-51 High Performance Bypass Shock Absorbers

Designed, developed and tested entirely in-house by ARB’s team of Old Man Emu ride engineers, BP-51 shock absorbers are engineered for each vehicle and utilise existing suspension mounting locations.

Providing unrivaled comfort and control over all surfaces, the revolutionary internal bypass design ensures there are no exposed fluid transfer channels on the exterior of the shock. This results in a design that suits existing suspension setups and offers greater longevity.

A BP-51 suspension upgrade is available to suit your vehicle.

Jeep Wrangler Suspension

The Jeep Wrangler is a small/medium sized wagon, available in either 2 door or 4 door configuration. Despite the Wrangler being very capable off road in standard form, the OME engineers focussed on further increasing off road capability through increased ride height and greater wheel travel whilst improving on road handling and vehicle dynamics.

A range of front and rear springs, with matching shocks, were developed to cater for differing vehicle setups and engine variants. To maintain factory driveline specifications with the increased ride height, Panhard rod extension brackets and a castor correction kit were also developed, whilst an upgraded steering damper provides greater control for vehicles with larger diameter tyres.
