Rancho Performance Suspension & Shocks FAQ

How is height adjustment made on the Quicklifts? I have a 2007 Silverado and only want one inch of lift. The Quicklifts unfortunately are not going to be ride height adjustable, when we say that the quick lifts are adjustable what we're referring to is the valving. The Quicklifts have adjustable valving, but not adjustable ride height. What they're meant for is to get your truck level with the rear at a fixed height depending on whatever whatever truck you have that lift height is going to be a little bit different. How long is the Rancho Warranty? The good...

Old Man Emu BP-51 Toyota 4Runner Installation

The installation of the Old Man Emu BP51 front coilovers and rear shocks are pretty straight forward. One part that may be slightly different from other brands, or non-reservoir setups, are the unique reservoir mounts in the OME kit. We’ve installed all sorts of reservoir shock setups on many different Toyotas, and no two reservoir mounts are the same. The front and rear mounting kits are also unique to the BP51 shocks, since the 2.8 inch bodies require special clearance requirements in the rear of the vehicle.

Old Man Emu BP-51 Tacoma Review

Before putting the BP-51 Internal Bypass shocks to the test, our ICON Vehicle Dynamics Stage 8 setup took the most abuse on the Tacoma, by a long shot. It excelled at taking hard hits at high speeds, handling abuse and unpredictable terrain, becoming smoother as the Tacoma went faster. Yes, race shocks get smoother as you go faster, its awesome. After thrashing on the ICON setup for 60k miles, it was time for a rebuild, and a new shock setup. Baseline The baseline for this review is 270,000 miles on the Tacoma, and 5 different shock absorber types. Factory TRD...

Tacoma versus Raptor: Summer Vacation Edition

While the change in vehicles might seem like a natural progression to some, or even an obvious move, it was anything but. Due to a string of unfortunate events at the beginning of our 2 week road trip, the '06 Tacoma with 260K miles started to show its age. The record breaking heat in the western half of the United States was taking its toll on aged vehicles, seizing pulleys, snapping belts, blowing radiators, and warping gaskets. The infamous words on the Toyota Dealership’s diagnostic sheet, "new head gasket", threatened to end our trip before it started. This is what...
