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.
Where This Suspension Kit Excels
Whether you’re tackling remote tracks, towing heavy trailers, or loading up for an expedition, this kit delivers the confidence and capability needed for serious adventure. It is ideal for:
Touring and overlanding with constant heavy loads
Off-road enthusiasts seeking maximum articulation and control
Tradespeople requiring reliable load support
Drivers wanting improved ride comfort and handling on-road and off
By addressing the common issues of sagging, instability, and poor ride quality under load, the BP-51 system helps maintain predictable handling and vehicle safety across all conditions.

Questions before you order
Frequently asked questions
What makes the BP-51 suspension kit different from standard lift kits?

Is this kit suitable for vehicles carrying less than 600kg in the rear?

ARB designs the BP-51 system for compatibility with the Ford Ranger Mk8. However, always check with your vehicle manufacturer or dealer regarding warranty implications before installation.
What tyres and wheels are compatible with this lift?
The 40mm lift allows for larger tyres, but always check local regulations and ensure sufficient clearance for your chosen wheel and tyre combination.
Does the kit include everything needed for installation?
Yes, the kit includes all major components required for installation, including shocks, springs, bush kits, shackles, U-bolts, and fitment hardware.
