Old Man Emu brings racing technology to your everyday adventures: the BP-51 (51mm bore bypass shock) features innovative, patent-pending technology developed to deliver exceptional on-road and off-road performance. Developed and rigorously tested in the harsh Australian environment, this large-bore, position-sensitive bypass shock absorber with a remote reservoir can be installed without vehicle modifications. It combines comfort for city driving with powerful end-zone damping for superior chassis control and handling off-road. The damping performance offers a wide range of rebound and compression adjustability, significantly transforming the vehicle's ride quality and allowing for custom tuning to suit conditions and vehicle setup. The body, reservoir, and components are crafted from 6061 T6 aluminum, with a type 3, 40-micron hard-anodized finish for superior heat dissipation, corrosion resistance, and protection against stone damage. All BP-51 shock absorbers are designed, developed, and tested by ARB's Old Man Emu ride engineering team and manufactured in-house at ARB's own production facilities. Significant investment in advanced machinery allows for complete control over the manufacturing process, ensuring the highest quality.
