Product Description

Fits:

Jeep Wrangler JL (2018+) 2 Door

Heavy. i.e best suited for Jeeps carrying excess weight, such as roof racks, tents, towing etc. Ride will be firmer with Jeep unladen. 

Approximately 2.5" lift gain for Rubicon models and 3.5" for Overland and Sahara 

Design & Development:

The OME engineers’ objective was to develop a complete suspension system for the new Jeep Wrangler JL, suiting both 2-door and 4-door variants. Comprehensive research and vehicle testing along with countless hours of engineering resources were dedicated to the development of OME suspension for the JL. OME is proud to offer suspension products that will add 3.5 inch lift (2.5 inch for Rubicon) that easily bolts on and provides excellent control on off-road trails.

Old Man Emu Suspension provides a range of tuned, matched, and integrated systems. The complete solutions are more than just shock absorbers and springs. At ARB, we take integration to the highest level with our own selection of bushings, u-bolts, center bolts, spring liners, trim packers, and suspension fitting kits.

During development, each new Old Man Emu suspension system is tested not only for practical performance, but also to ensure compatibility with modern vehicle safety features such as electronic stability control, an area in which ARB has invested heavily in.

Springs:

A range of spring options were developed for both the front and rear to cater to various levels of accessory fitment and load scenarios. 3.5 inch (JL Sport) and 2.5 inch (JL Rubicon) lifts were achieved by utilizing OME X5K high-grade spring steel tuned to provide compliant ride on road while maintaining off-road performance.

BP-51 Shock Absorbers:

Old Man Emu is pleased to release the latest application of BP-51 High-Performance Bypass Shock Absorbers engineered specifically for the Jeep Wrangler JL. This package consists of two front dampers, two rear dampers, and two fit kits. These BP-51 Shock Absorbers work with the OME springs and fit kits for both the Sport and Rubicon JL models. With this lift, your vehicle will achieve a lift height of 3.5 inches on the Sport and 2.5 inches on the Rubicon.

The front reservoir placement required a bracket to be developed to mount the reservoir to the chassis rail inside the fender just below the headlight. Special consideration was taken to cater to both the Sport and Rubicon models as the headlight design varies.

The rear reservoir was able to utilize the piggyback mount because sufficient room was available.

To fit BP-51 Shock Absorbers into the front of the Jeep Wrangler JL, the OME engineers had to design and fabricate specific lower shock mounts to prevent contact between the shock absorber body and chassis rail when the shock is fully extended. To provide more space the lower shock mount is relocated outwards.

The rear shock mount has also been relocated to provide clearance between the shock absorber body and the sway bar at full droop. The rear mount not only relocates the bottom mount but also provides a skid and protection for off-road use. Consideration of the mount design included ease of fitment of the shaft guard which protects the shaft against stone damage.

Lower Adjustable Arm Kit:

An adjustable lower-arm kit was developed to allow a flexible solution to fine tune caster settings for the JL regardless of the final ride height and loading scenarios. All arms are designed with strength and durability
in mind and also offer maximum ground clearance. 

Important Notes:

Lift increase is approximate and will depend on accessory fitment and vehicle weight.

When fitting larger than original diameter tyres, it may be necessary to fit aftermarket wheels (rims) that have a greater offset (less backspacing) to ensure that sufficient clearance is given between the tyre and suspension components. 

Spring ratings for the light duty kit are 0-90 lbs additional weight front and up to 150 lbs additional weight rear. Ratings for the springs in the heavy duty kit are 90-190 lbs front and up to 300 lbs rear.
