ChangeThe BP-51 range of high-performance, bypass shock absorbers is the result of an exhaustive development process aimed at delivering the ultimate in both comfort and control. Designed, developed and tested entirely in-house by ARB’s team of Old Man Emu ride-control engineers, BP-51 shock absorbers are vehicle-specific and utilize existing mounting locations to provide easy installation without the need for additional vehicle modification. Unlike most other adjustable shock absorbers, which provide adjustment for compression only, the BP-51 range allows on-vehicle, independent adjustability of both rebound and compression to offer class-leading ride customization that can be tailored to an individual vehicle or trip requirements.
Old Man Emu has a wide selection of Old Man Emu BP-51 complete kits, specifically for the Jeep Wrangler JL. Each suspension kit consists of all the components required to enhance the driveability both on- and off-road. These complete bolt-on kits suit both Sport and Rubicon models. BP-15 Bypass Shock kits provide 3.5in of suspension height when fitted to Sport models and 2.5 in on Rubicon models.
Large, Teflon-lined spherical bearings.

Quality oversized rubber bushings result in excellent longevity.
Replaceable, impact resistant, high-density polyethylene shaft guard prevents damage to the shock absorber shaft from stones and other debris.
6061 grade aluminum spring seat.
Hard chromed, ground piston shaft for the ultimate in strength and durability.
External, independent rebound and compression adjustment allows fine tuning of ride comfort and control to suit varying vehicle and trip requirements.
High-quality X5K grade steel coil, for use on coil over models, incorporates application-specific design.
6061 grade aluminum remote oil canister allows for increased oil volume, resulting in lower oil temperatures.
51mm bore, 6061 grade aluminum shock absorber body with type III, hard anodized finish for increased heat dissipation and corrosion resistance.
Remote reservoir piggy back clamp allows easy connection of the remote oil reservoir to the main shock absorber body.
6061 grade aluminum adjustor allows adjustment of spring preload and ride height.
6061 grade aluminum top hat.
Durable Dash 6 high-temperature Teflon hose incorporates high-flow fittings for optimum oil flow.
Aftermarket 4×4 suspension is extremely complex. Determining the right solution for your vehicle and your requirements demands special attention to many factors. Unlike numerous aftermarket suspension systems, which are only available in a single configuration targeting lift height, Old Man Emu offers a range of tuned, matched, and integrated suspension systems to ensure the right suspension is available to suit how the vehicle is outfitted and the conditions it will encounter.
The Old Man Emu engineers developed multiple solutions for the Jeep Wrangler JL, suiting both 2-door and 4-door variants. Two tiers are available for consumers looking for a mild or aggressive ride height for their application. The first offers an integrated 3.5 inch system (2.5 inch for Rubicon) and the second offers 2 inches of added ride height. Both systems easily bolt on and provide excellent control off-road. The Jeep Wrangler JL suspension has been developed as a complete suspension system to ensure alignment can be returned to factory specifications.
