None that I have seen yet, but I wouldn't mind being the first! I need to find a money tree first though, but the product pretty much has me sold at this point. There will be ALOT of research time before I do decide to pull the trigger....

I'll most likely have it sooner than later. Just need to decide which UCAs to pair with them.

I was looking at this for a possible upgrade but not sure if I could justify the cost. Love OME though, had the 3" Med duty on my FJ and loved it.

I spoke with Toytec a while back, and they carry it:

Old Man Emu Suspension Kit 2.5-3" Lift Kit For 10+ FJ Cruiser & 4Runner W/ BP-51

I NEED MORE MONEY!

I'm going by memory, but I believe OME typically uses a shim or something similar for KDSS vehicles. That may not be necessary with the threaded body which can be used to make the adjustment. That would leave the only KDSS potential question to be mounting of the reservoir/bracket, which I believe FOX had an issue with that required some custom modding. So who's going to pull the trigger first?

That resi mounting of the bp-51 is what I was concerned about and not wanting to have to mod brackets for the resi on the driver side. Also there is not much info on adjusting the preload as OME recommends using an adapter and a wall mounted spring compressor to adjust height . Poss due to the aluminum body n not galling the threads. Been trying to get info on fj and LC 200 forums as only a few people have them . Also checked on the prado 150 series and ARB Europe states that I need bp519004L and fit kit ending with a 9 vs 8 with kdss . Because the 4Runner is based on prado 150 suspension. Can't find it on the ARB USA or Australia sites .

But as far as the feedback from those that have them both fj' sand L/C 200 say they ride great on and offroad and having individual adjustment of compression and rebound plus the bypass technology has been very impressive . Just trying to be patient and wait for them to b available for my specific application .

Yes...will work with both KDSS/non-KDSS...I just think you need to specify.

I couldn't agree more...there are a few members here that have used them that were pleased.

As an update I did talk to Matt, an owner a Main Line Overland, and he said he will talk to our local ARB rep about a possible group buy, if there's enough interest. That sounded like a winner to me.
