This ARB Old Man Emu BP-51 shocks-only kit lets a 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK owner drop the flagship BP-51 dampers onto an existing 2 to 2.5-inch lift. BP-51 is ARB's position-sensitive, monotube bypass shock with an external reservoir and vehicle-side adjusters — a real ride-quality upgrade over emulsion shocks.
Why owners choose it
- Adjustable compression and rebound damping without pulling the shocks.
- Position-sensitive bypass valving: supple on-road, controlled over big impacts.
- External reservoirs help resist fade on long, hot trails.
- Matched to Wrangler JK setups already lifted 2 to 2.5 inches.
Read before buying: this is a shocks-only kit — it does not include springs. You need coils that already deliver 2 to 2.5 inches of lift for these shocks to work at their designed length.
This fits
Jeep Wrangler JK, 2-door and Unlimited (4-door), 2007 through 2018, with an existing 2–2.5″ lift.
