Old Man Emu Remote Resivoir Coil over.

"ARB OME BP-51 internal bypass coilovers mounted to ARB's 2016 Toyota Tacoma."

Besides the cost, I want these! OME quality finally in an adjustable coilover. This was stolen from ARB's facebook page. Looks like there is a remote resi rear shock also.

Has anyone run these on a Gen 2?

 

They aren't available yet

 

Yet....but they will be it would appear. I see them listed for FJ's on their webpage. I wonder how they have performed on that vehicle. I have always been an OME fan and an adjustable coil-over option might be just what the doctor ordered when my 16 arrives.

 

Point being , to answer your question ~

" Has anyone run these on a Gen 2 ? "

No

They aren't available yet

 

Thanks for your clarification.

 

Internal bypass coilovers....nice.

 

They look like they could be a really good option. I know ARB fitted some of these on a second generation over the summer. Hopefully they will perform well. Should for 1600 for the fronts only.

 

Unlike the icon they are not able to be rebuilt and I bet getting a replacement or parts out in the field is impossible. They also have a smaller diameter piston. I'm a real big fan of OME and have it on my 4Runner, but opted not to go this route for the reasons above.

 

Not correct: "They are 100% re-buildable and re-valvable for longevity and tuning."

 

Then I was given bad info from the distributor. Thanks!

 

I'm in

$760 EACH!!

 

I wanted a set but I heard you have to take them off the truck to adjust the height. There's no room for their spanner wrench to adjust it when it's on the truck.

 

That price is horrifying to me. Granted i only did bilsteins, but i dont think i spent 750 on all 4 shocks and front coils combined! I have my nomex suit on, flame away

 

What is the consensus on this kit? Michael at Pelfreybilt said its amazing... but all along i had my eyes set on the Icon Stage 2 kit... any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

 

Seems pricey.

 

Get it ! I have a 2015 4x4 base model and suspension sucks ! 6 months later I purchase The Icon Stage 4T and it was night and day ! My friend has the stage 2 and said the same thing , nothing but high quality materials/components and easy to install. 100% rebuidable and Made In The USA. They are one of the top suspension companies from the U.S. also to mention KING and FOX were my top three choices, ICON just made it easier offered as a kit .

 

what Icon kit do you believe is best bang for buck? I was looking at the Stage 2 as that price point is right at $2k and doesnt break the bank..How is the stage 4??

 

The stage 4t is probaly the best thing I bought for the truck. It rides beautifully on dry rocky river beds slow speed and medium speeds on the pineapple roads with alotta holes , it soaks it right up as far as maintenance its still considerd fresh from the factory ( 5 months old , weekends of abuse) the stock unit and under carriage would have taken a beating. Most I've done yet was grease my upper control arms, but there will be some down time when Its time to send it out to Icon for a rebuild. There's an old tread in here "ICON vs TOYTEC " may shed some light on which direction you wanna go ,,,I still say ICON , a better bang for your buck !
