WATERPROOF Provides a water tight seal, keeping moisture out and eliminating the chance for rust. SOUND DEADENER Flexible and reduces noise and vibrations. RESISTANT Resistant against fuels, hydraulic oils, animal urine, bird faeces, salt water and more.

Suspension

Old Man Emu 4” suspension lift kit by ARB has undergone countless hours of engineering and testing.
4 inch lift is achieved by linear rate springs using X5K high grade steel tuned to provide compliant ride on road while maintaining off road performance.

Both front and rear Nitrocharger Sport shocks have vehicle specific valving tuned for optimal blend of ride control and comfort. Shock lengths have been optimised for maximum down travel while retaining factory drive shafts, brake lines and shock mounts.

To centre and fine tune the location of the front axle, Old Man Emu has developed an adjustable forged track bar as a replacement to the original. A Hi grade 4140 forged steel adjustable track bar was chosen for its superior strength, durability and freedom to optimise design.

A rear Track Bar relocation bracket was developed to address the positioning of the rear track bar. This relocation bracket not only centres the axle but also raises the rear roll centre to provide positive rear stability. Old Man Emu engineers have used Design Solid Modelling and FEA to ensure strength and durability.

A bump stop spacer kit is used to ensure a larger diameter tyre is kept off the body work and optimises shock extended and compressed lengths to allow maximum compression and rebound travel.

New longer front and rear sway bar links have been developed to correct sway bar alignment due to increased lift. The rear link is the factory style with two ball joints. The front link has an upper ball joint and the lower has a disconnect function using a greasable pin.

The steering damper has been specifically tuned for the Jeep JK to address front end wobbles initiated by anything from worn ball joints to out of balance large diameter tyres.

Brake line relocation brackets have been developed to reroute factory brake lines to work with this kits’ extended shock lengths. A handbrake relocation bracket lowers the brake line mounting position to relieve stress on brake lines resulting from the higher ride height.

In addition to the Old Man Emu Kit, advanced geometry control arm drop brackets have been used. These durable drop brackets help reset JK control arm angles to a more natural and comfortable geometry. By reducing the operating angle of the front control arms, the force applied to the arm when hitting a bump is now directed up into the springs instead of being absorbed into the frame. These drop brackets allow the JK with 4in of lift to operate more like stock, with a more appropriate geometry to increase force on the front wheels. More force means more traction in straight line braking and reduced weight shifting and inertia when braking during a curve.

The Old Man Emu suspension has had its well known yellow shock absorbers sprayed in black Raptor paint.

Wheels and Tyres

Huge 20” x 9” Fully cast race proven KMC XD Rockstar 2 alloy wheels fitted with 35” x 12.5” Atturo Trail blade Tyres.

An AEV Procal module has been used to re-calibrate the speedo and gearbox with the oversize tyres.

Front Winch Bumper

The tough and stylish Smittybilt XRC M.O.D. bumper gives full width coverage, and houses the 10,000lbs Smittybilt electric winch. Coated in a two stage textured matte black finish. The bumper is also equipped with D-Ring mounts that are welded on the inside and out that provides a towable anchor for off road recovery situations. The Modular front modular bumper allows many different combinations with bolt on hoop and stinger options for use when off road.

Winch

The new Gen2 series Smittybilt X2O 10,000lbs winch has been thoroughly updated with heavy-duty features for enhanced performance and comes with an integrated wireless remote. The new 6.6HP amphibious motor offers the highest torque in the industry and is connected to a 3-stage Planetary Gear System for increased pulling power and line speed. All Gen2 X20 Winches come backed by a Lifetime Mechanical Warranty and a 5-Year Electrical Warranty.

Rear Bumper and Tyre Carrier

Smittybilt XRC Atlas rear bumper perfectly fits to the Jeep Wrangler contours and features a dual-stage matte black powder coat finish. The tyre carrier provides support for the heavy oversized tyre and is height adjustable with cam-style pin adjustment ensuring perfect gate stowing.

Includes integrated jerry can and jack mounts solid mount for D-rings and it also features a 2” receiver hitch that can be used with compatible accessories design for receiver hitch.

Sill protection

Smittybilt SRC Side armour utilises a dual girder system that provides the ultimate protection for the sides and under section of the Wrangler. SRC Side armour provides protection as well as a step at the same time. It has been finished in the same matte black textured powder as the front and rear bumpers.

Styling

Monster grille and AEV heat reduction hood give aggressive style. Bushwacker extended flares give full width coverage and custom styling. Due to wider stance from the offset wheels and wide tyres, the Bushwacker extended flares keep the vehicle legal by providing extra tyre coverage.

With their recessed stainless steel bolts and massive presence, Pocket StyleFender Flares are a Bushwacker original manufactured in the USA. They’re custom-designed for the Jeep Wrangler to complement oversized tyres and high-clearance suspension.

Lighting

The factory headlights have been upgraded with Vision X Vortex LED headlights finished in black chrome. Legal and engineered for the UK market the Vortex LED Headlight also comes packed with an extremely powerful high-beam and a wide spread low beam. With such diversity in beam pattern, you can rest assured that you’ll have the right lighting for the right scenario at any time. Equipped with a Halo LED Ring, the headlights feature a bright halo ring that can be active as a day time running light, without the low beam or high beams. Having a 7″ halo on the front of your vehicle will not only turn heads, but also provide you with the optimal lighting options for any situation.

Front fog light have also been upgraded to Vision X Optimus LED units. Neatly integrated into the front bumpers these light are E marked and have a day time running halo that work with the vehicles side lights.

Additional auxiliary off road lighting includes 2 full width roof mounted LED light bars, bonnet mounted LED light bar and 4 pillar mounted cube LED lights. All lights are operated from a custom build switch panel inside the Jeep. Combined together these lights provide an unprecedented level of illumination.

Exhaust

Twin exit hi temperature black powder coated stainless exhaust by Rugged Ridge. The added flow decreases back pressure and efficiently increases horsepower. The dual exhaust system features slash cut and rounded oval tips for a tough look and awesome sound.
