Premium Suspension Upgrade for Ford Ranger Mk8 (2023 Onwards)
The ARB Old Man Emu BP-51 600kg Constant 40mm Lift Suspension Kit is engineered to transform the handling, comfort, and load-carrying capability of your Ford Ranger Mk8 (2023 onwards). Developed by ARB, this kit features the renowned BP-51 internal bypass shock absorbers, offering advanced adjustability and exceptional performance for demanding off-road and towing environments.
How the BP-51 Suspension Kit Enhances Your Ranger
This suspension kit is designed specifically for Ford Ranger Mk8 owners who require improved ride quality, increased ground clearance, and superior control under heavy loads. The BP-51 shock absorbers utilise position-sensitive damping, allowing for a plush ride at normal speeds and increased control during aggressive off-road use or when carrying up to 600kg of constant rear load. The 40mm lift provides additional clearance for rough terrain and larger tyres, while maintaining on-road comfort and stability.
