The Old Man Emu Rear BP-51 Shock Fitting Kit VM80010024 is engineered to ensure correct and secure installation of BP-51 bypass shock absorbers on the rear axle of Jeep Wrangler JK vehicles with lifted suspension. BP-51 shocks use remote reservoirs and require precise shock and reservoir positioning to work effectively and avoid interference with the chassis, suspension links, and bodywork.

This fitting kit includes a set of vehicle-specific brackets, spacers, and mounting hardware that allow the BP-51 rear shocks and remote reservoirs to be mounted with the correct alignment and clearance. Proper installation helps maintain designed suspension geometry, prevents premature wear of hoses and shock components, and ensures that shocks operate as intended under load and travel.

The fitting kit is particularly useful on lifted or modified Wrangler JKs where stock mounting points may not align with larger bypass shocks or their external reservoirs. By providing engineered mounting solutions, the kit enhances durability and reliability in demanding off-road use, overland travel, and extended trail conditions.
