Product Description
Fits:
Jeep Wrangler JL (2018+) with 2.5-3.5" of lift
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.
Design & Development:
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.
