Old Man Emu Front BP-51 Coilover for Left Side BP5190013L

FEATURES

• Independent adjustability of both rebound and compression
• Development - To ensure we meet your expectations ARB invests heavily in research and development. Our design and engineering team utilizes the latest CAD CAM parametric modeling systems and finite element analysis packages and is supported by subcontract companies and universities for special projects like vibration strength and crash testing. With an air bag equipped vehicle for example it is essential that the vehicle's crush rate and air bag triggering is not altered when a bull bar is installed. Our exhaustive testing programs ensure ARB bull bars meet these requirements. We also devote considerable time and resources toward to sourcing new products from around the world. IPF lights from Japan Warn winches from the US' we scan the globe in search of equipment that meets both the demands of our customers and our own stringent quality requirements. What's more we're also constantly on the lookout for new ways to improve our business practices from distribution to customer service. ARB is a Quality Endorsed Company and wherever we can we endeavor to 'raise the bar'.
• Large Teflon-lined spherical bearings
• Quality oversized rubber bushings result in excellent longevity
• Sold individually
• Impact-resistant polyethylene guard prevents damage to shaft
• Hard chromed ground piston shaft for strength and durability

ABOUT THIS PRODUCT

The BP-51 (Bypass 51mm diameter bore) 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 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. In addition to the velocity sensitive damping used in most shock absorbers where the faster the piston moves the higher the level of damping is generated BP-51 shock absorbers also generate damping dependent on the position of the piston within the shock absorber's body via their bypass design. While most shock absorbers only generate damping based on fluid flowing through the piston the BP-51 offers an alternative path from one chamber to the other around the piston in the form of bypass passages. Some fluid flows through the piston and some fluid bypasses around the piston in the bypass passages. This results in an ability for the shock absorber to provide the best of both worlds with a comfortable and compliant ride during normal driving and a more controlled ride over more challenging terrain. All BP-51 shock absorbers are manufactured in-house to ensure the highest quality. BP-51 shock absorber bodies are manufactured using aircraft grade (6061) anodized aluminum to dissipate heat more efficiently than steel or alloy steel and provide superior corrosion resistance.
