Advanced hydraulic shock absorber with independent adjustment for optimal performance.
The ARB Shock Absorber BP-51 is a high-performance hydraulic shock absorber designed for enhanced comfort and control in off-road conditions. Engineered by ARB's Old Man Emu ride engineers, this shock absorber is vehicle specific and utilizes existing mounting locations for straightforward installation without modifications. Its unique design features independent adjustment for both rebound and compression, allowing users to customize their ride experience based on individual vehicle needs and trip requirements.
Constructed with a 661 grade aluminum body and a hard anodized finish, the BP-51 ensures increased heat dissipation and corrosion resistance. The shock absorber includes a remote oil reservoir that enhances oil volume, resulting in lower operating temperatures. Additionally, the durable construction incorporates high-quality materials such as X5K grade steel coil and oversized rubber bushings, ensuring longevity and reliability in demanding environments.
The BP-51 also features a replaceable, impact-resistant polyethylene shaft guard that protects the shock from debris, along with a hard chromed piston shaft for added strength. With its advanced design and adjustable valving, the ARB Shock Absorber BP-51 is engineered to deliver superior performance and adaptability for various driving conditions.
