Homer72 wrote:ARB had them mounted to a couple of vehicles at the Vic Caravan & Camping Show. Hilux, Prado and 200 Series. Talked to Brighton ARB Manager there and he said they broke a 200 series when testing. They look the bomb and will be going on the next Hilux but that's another 18mths away.

Exact story I heard as well. I was told it was a Bent/cracked chassis

Too bad they won't just sell me the front setup and rear shocks

Fantastic, smooth as really happy with them
highly recommended.

Do you mind if i ask what it cost supplied and installed?

PM sent Enjoy

id like to know how much too

hi mate $4,554.00 in WA
and i reckon it rides better than the wife's Toyota Camry around town and on the dirt
it's fantastic don't feel much.

are you able to buy them separately and fit them yourself? i wouldnt mind trying a set out when my set go eventually in the distant future i hope

flex73, thanks, is the ride height fully adjustable at the front?

Don't know how "fully" adjustable but can can get some more out of the front if need be

Whats the Marketing message here…………Drive your lux like a lunatic on a rally circuit?

So lets summarise - Designed to fit 31" - 32" tyres, fundamentally the design is around rally spec?
Still sits the nose of the lux down like a bitch, *uk all additional travel.
ARB are masters at advertising and marketing (they have to be they've got share holders to pay)
Suck people right in!

Jeez Torsion why don't you come out and say what you really think.

Looking at your Avatar it seems you have been sucked in a few times by the ARB marketing department.
Or is it that they just make a good product and you could afford to pay the little extra for it?

Fitted the BP-51 to my 200 series a couple of weeks ago $3300 supply only for the whole setup, really happy so far

anybody got these yet? what do you think of them? i just got hold of a nearly new set but havent had the chance to try them out properly yet.

Haven't even seen a set in the flesh yet but I'm sure that will change, goin to an OME training course on them on Wednesday. what do ya think my chances of getting some freebies are? lol!

i would like a full set but not at $2800 or so.

This guy had them fitted a couple of months ago, try contacting him.

ive also got a training course coming up soon, we've only fitted 3 sets to hiluxs and 1 set to 200 series landcruiser so far, but havent had any feedback from the customers yet.

From everything I've read, seen and for the money, unless you intend on racing your truck and need all that adjustment they r simply overkill for nearly everyone. More of the "look what I've got!" If ya ask me.

finally got to give the suspension a good testing this weekend and they are simply amazing, once i figured out the settings for the compression and rebound adjustment. they give a soft ride and are not harsh yet can soak up large bumps and washouts without letting the suspension bottom out or shaking the vehicle to bits. being adjustable i can also firm up the settings when needed as well.

After doin the seminar last week I can say that they r an awesome bit of kit! Simply the best materials and quality that money can buy! Would still be hard for a lot of people to hand over that sort of coin! End of the day we all own 4bies and if ya want that kind of smooth ride then maybe ya should stick to the black top. Would be good if all ya do us touring tho! Just my 2c.
