MT64 Shock Absorbers

This highly engineered shock absorber and strut range represents an all-new segment for the brand and an unmatched customer experience, both on and off-road. Its moniker derives from the internal monotube design using an enormous 64mm (2.5 in) inner bore diameter.

These cutting-edge shocks are built to handle the unique challenges faced by vehicles equipped with campers, toppers, tents, and rack systems. These additions create a dynamic shifting load, both in terms of front-to-back and side-to-side movements. The MT64 shocks are engineered to provide exceptional performance and stability, allowing drivers to confidently navigate any terrain.

MT64 is the ultimate overlanding authority, designed for the traveler who wants a smooth ride and comfort both on and off-road. Overlanding demands shocks that can handle all conditions, day after day and that is what MT64 is designed to do.

Specifications

MT64 SHOCK ABSORBER FEATURES

Refinement in Ride

The massive 2.8 inch body allows for more oil and bigger piston and shim stacks, to reduce heat providing more control through the stroke giving a more refined ride

DURABLE CONSTRUCTION

Featuring the same aerospace grade aluminum as our high-performance BP-51 to dissipate heat effectively, the MT64 also boasts a 7/8 inch piston rod shaft for exceptional stability

Comprehensive Comfort

In addition to smoother everyday comfort, MT64 is designed with a hydraulic end zone top out, which provides added padding at the shock’s full extension, to compensate for any unexpected bumps

Adjustable Ride Height for Different Loads

Utilizing ridges on the body of the shock, MT64 features an adjustable spring seat with 6 positions in 5mm increments, which allows for one coil spring to cater for added accessory weights

DURABLE CONSTRUCTION

Utilising the same aerospace grade aluminium as our high-performance BP-51 to dissipate heat effectively

QUALITY FINISH

Covered with military spec hard anodised finish, the MT64 has superior corrosion resistance and can handle extreme temperatures

COMPREHENSIVE COMFORT

In addition to plush everyday comfort, MT64 is also designed with a hydraulic end zone top out, which provides added padding at the shock’s full extension, to compensate for any unexpected bumps

PRODUCED BY ARB

ARB's uncompromising Old Man Emu suspension team has designed, engineered and manufactured the MT64, giving you confidence in the quality

EVERYDAY IMPROVEMENT

Smooth, controlled ride for everyday and long-distance driving to reduce fatigue and general wear and tear on your vehicle’s components

INCREASED SIZE

MT64’s sizable shape makes it one of the biggest monotubes on the market, providing users with more of every aspect of the shock

DOUBLE BONDED RUBBER BUSHES

Providing unrivalled Noise, Vibration, Harshness (NVH) compliance, the bushes limit feedback to the driver through the suspension components. The natural rubber bushes provide a noise-free cushioned ride due to the softer finish and its ability to absorb bumps on the road

PISTON ROD

Equipped with a larger 22.5mm (7/8in) piston rod (shaft), the hard chrome finished rod provides improved strength and exceptional stability

WARRANTY

MT64 comes with the backing of ARB’s global support network, including a 3-year warranty which ensures you’ll go further for longer

FORGED ENDCAP

The expertly forged 6061 aluminium bodycaps provide increased strength to this solid shock, and also assist in dissipating heat to improve performance

SHAFT GUARD

Made from high density polyethylene, the shaft guard is designed to protect the shaft from stones and other debris and is also replaceable

MULTI-LIP COMBO SEAL

Reinforced with a resilient multi-lip combo seal which is designed to handle high pressure and shaft speeds, whilst also being made from a material that will handle a high temperature range

INTERNAL FLOATING PISTON

Added technology of an internal floating piston that works to separate the oil and nitrogen, giving the shock consistent performance over different terrains

PROTECTIVE BUMP CAP

MT64 is sealed with a bump cap that utilises an integrated wiper seal, to guarantee the prevention of any dust, dirt and contaminant ingress

EXPLORE MORE ON MT64 SHOCK ABSORBERS

  • What does MT64 stand for?

    The MT64’s name is derived from the construction of the shock absorber. The MT is the abbreviated version of the word monotube, relating to the shocks singular tube design. The 64 describes the measurement of the massive 64-millimetre (2.5-inch) internal bore.

  • What’s the difference between twin tube and monotube?

    As the name suggests, the twin tube has a second internal tube inside the shock to separate oil and nitrogen gas. This is a proven technology that works very well, but has its limitations around oil volume and tuning capability due to the piston and overall internal volume being smaller due to having to house a second tube. A monotube shock absorber is a single body design, which utilizes a floating piston at the top of the shock body to separate the oil and nitrogen gas. This allows a much larger amount of oil to be inside the shock absorber, which not only limits the shock fade, but also increases the overall size of the piston. This increase gives our engineers a huge scope for tuning, allowing us to tune your vehicle perfectly.

  • Why upgrade to MT64?

    The MT64 takes inspiration from our tried and proven Nitrocharger, combining with our in-house designed and manufactured world class BP-51 shock absorber, filling the gap between affordable reliability and ultimate race inspired performance. If you’re an avid camper and 4WDer, the MT64 is the perfect companion to get you there and back again with ultimate reliability, all while in complete comfort and control for hours on end.

  • Is the MT64 the right choice for my 4x4?

    If you’re looking for an all-around shock that is reliable and comfortable everyday, while also being ready to tackle off-road terrain, MT64 is the shock for you. Designed to complement and complete the Old Man EMu range, the MT64 is ideal for anyone that wants set and forget premium performance on demand, without the need to perfectly adjust for your environment.

  • Is the MT64 good for towing and extra loads?

    Due to the increased oil volume and shim stack, the MT64 performs well with added weight. Our engineers have ensured the shock is the perfect companion for touring with your van in tow, providing superior comfort and control even when fully loaded.

  • Is MT64 adjustable?

    The MT64 range has been extensively tuned by the Old Man Emu team to suit each individual vehicle, and provide multiple shock options for your vehicle. The result is a damper range capable of multiple configurations of accessories and weight for the vehicle, ensuring that our OME engineers have done the work for you in terms of tuning. This is achieved with an adjustable spring seat allowing your vehicle height to be adjusted as you add or remove accessories. For the driver who just wants reliability and all the hard work done, MT64 is for them and doesn’t require any fine tuning or adjustability.

  • MT64 vs Nitrocharger?

    Our well known Nitrocharger range is a twin tube design, compared to the MT64 which we have opted for a monotube design. The MT64 has a massive internal bore of 64mm which gives our engineers a much larger scope for perfectly tuning the shock absorber for any vehicle platform. This results in a large increase in vehicle control and comfort. Due to the large internal oil volume, MT64 provides consistent damping performance over a wide temperature range and allows you to travel for as long as you need.  The MT64 also feature an anodized aluminum body which dissipates heat up to 15x faster and is 1.3x lighter than steel, while also providing superior corrosion resistance.

  • Why natural rubber bushes?

    Providing unrivalled Noise, Vibration, Harshness (NVH) compliance, the bushes limit feedback to the driver through the suspension components. When incorporated into a double bonded bush design, the MT64 achieves high levels of durability without sacrificing comfort.
