Looks like we might have a new suspension system to talk about soon...

[uptheirons]

ARB is finally releasing their BP-51 system, not for our 5th gens yet, but they are mentioned for future releases...

Prices were on the actual ARB site, looked like 800 per coil over and 5-600 for the rear shocks...

Very nice looking setup. Way out of my price range......

Definitely high. Especially compared to what my normal OME setup cost me... But I'd be interested to see how they perform against Icon, Fox, and King...

Well done! If you read my post it's about them actually releasing it now, not just that they're going to be in the future. They've also released prices and models it's available on now, and ones it will be in the future.

$800 per coil? Dizzam!

And yet, not for the 5th gen 4runner, and no information that wasn't posted in the 1 year old thread, including full specs and pricing...

 

[uptheirons]

Pricing and full specs is on the ARB website and I included prices in my initial post, Not for the 5th gen but for similar application, 2014 FJ.

From ARBUSA today

4Runner suspension will be announced in the next couple of months. We are doing some final testing/tuning. Keep an eye out on our Facebook page.

OME has always been the cheap, kinda harsh, but good suspension guys.

This is uncharted territory for them.

It appears that they have a full internal bypass circuit and both compression and rebound external adjustment. If they get even close to right on the base valving - I think these will pretty easily out perform all of the current mono-tubes like the Fox, Icon, King, etc. (And I have Fox 2.5's). Finally someone's taking a shot at a more complex shock for non-race trucks. I applaud the effort.

Also keep in mind that those prices are likely AUD. $2,000 AUD msrp means actual price would be around 1750 AUD. That would translate to about $1240 USD for a full set. A full set of fox 2.5 remote reservoirs is double that.

ARB USA site shows $800 USD each for front and $510 USD each for rear.

$2620.00 for a full set by my math...

seems awful spendy for a 2" shock body

Thought about that as well... I'm certainly not gonna be the first guy to try these out, but I am certainly interested in how they'll perform.

King coilovers with adjustable damping are $1800 MSRP. these OME's at $1600 are not too far off. sure wish they were less, though.

I believe those kings are the 2.5" body though... Which makes it a huge difference...

yes, but the Kings are a 2.5" shock body, which is my point.

Yeah! I fully agree, my post was meant to be in agreeable with you.

ha. yeah, i know. i was responding to the other guy but didn't see your post before i did.

King's with remote reservoir and adjustable damping are more than $1800. I just bought a set without the adjustable damping on the recent group buy and it was more than $1800.

Not knocking the King's though. I love them and have had them on my Tacoma for years. I can't stand driving the 4Runner without them.
