Standard shocks can feel harsh or bottom out when the terrain changes fast. The BP-51 bypass design uses position-sensitive damping that stays soft at ride height and firms up deeper into suspension travel. With a massive 51 mm bore, oil stays cool and fade-free on long trails or over big hits, giving you confident control whether you’re crawling rocks or rolling down washboard roads.
Every trail and load feels different, so being able to tune your shocks without pulling them off the rig makes a huge difference. The BP-51 lets you adjust compression and rebound right on the vehicle to match your driving style, terrain, or cargo weight. Whether you want more comfort on pavement or firmer damping for aggressive off-road runs, you can set it up exactly how you like it.
Off-road conditions punish suspension parts with heat, grit, and debris. Each BP-51 shock is built from 6061-T6 aluminum with a Type 3 40 micron hard-anodized finish that resists corrosion, heat buildup, and rock damage. A polyethylene shaft guard and rubber bushings add protection where it counts, so your shocks stay smooth and dependable no matter how rough the trail gets.
You don’t need to cut or weld to run these shocks. The BP-51 bolts right up using a kit designed for your setup, keeping installation simple for a clean fit. Developed and tested under harsh Australian conditions by ARB’s Old Man Emu engineers, these shocks bring racing technology to everyday adventures with reliable performance backed by a 3-year warranty.
