If you want maximum suspension performance on a lifted Jeep Wrangler JK, the Old Man Emu BP-51 BP5160031is built for exactly that. This shock absorber brings advanced off-road damping technology into a direct-fit package, offering a controlled ride on pavement and superior stability on rough tracks, rocks, and washboard terrain.
The BP-51 uses a position-sensitive internal bypass design, meaning damping behavior changes progressively throughout the shock’s travel. In real driving, that translates to a smoother ride during normal movement and stronger control as the suspension approaches the end of its travel—helping reduce harsh bottoming and keeping the vehicle composed when the terrain gets aggressive.
A remote reservoir increases oil volume and improves heat management, which helps prevent damping fade during long off-road sections and high-frequency impacts. The shock is also fully tuneable, with independent compression and rebound adjustment, allowing you to dial in the suspension to match your lift height, vehicle weight, accessories (bumper, winch, armor), and driving style.
This is an ideal choice for serious trail rigs and overland builds that demand consistent performance, precise steering feel, and stable handling under load.
