ARB/OME BP51 Nissan Navara D23 Shock - Rear

If you're looking to get the most out of your Nissan Navara D23 when tackling rough terrain or carrying heavy loads, the Old Man Emu BP51 bypass shock absorber for the rear is a serious upgrade. These aren't your average shocks; they're built to handle the demands of off-road adventures and heavy-duty work, offering a significant improvement in control and comfort over stock components. The BP51 series is Old Man Emu's top-tier offering, designed for vehicles that see a lot of action both on and off the pavement.

What sets the BP51 apart is its advanced bypass technology and external reservoirs. This setup allows for a much wider range of damping adjustment, meaning you can fine-tune the ride for different conditions. Whether you're crawling over rocks, hitting washboard roads, or towing a trailer, you can adjust the compression and rebound to keep the tires planted and the ride controlled. The external reservoirs help dissipate heat, which is crucial for maintaining consistent performance during prolonged use or when the suspension is working hard. The body of the shock is constructed from a strong, anodized aluminum, which is lightweight and helps with heat dissipation. Inside, you'll find a large 50mm bore and a 19mm piston rod, built to withstand the stresses of serious off-roading.

Installing these shocks will require some mechanical know-how, as it involves removing the old shocks and mounting the new ones, along with the external reservoirs. It's a job that benefits from having the right tools and a bit of experience. When you're done, you'll notice a more planted feel on the road and significantly improved control and comfort when you venture off-road. This shock is designed to work with the Navara D23's suspension geometry to provide a noticeable improvement in its overall capability.
