ARB 2” Lift. OLD MAN EMU NitroCharger Sport Suspension upgrade
ARB Old Man Emu 2 inch Nitrocharger Sport Suspension lift on TOYOTA 4x4 FJ Cruiser. Before and after installation review shows amount of lift gained changing out standard Toyota suspension. Looked at TJM and Dobinsons and ended up going for ARB. Did not spec up to the BP51 bypass shocks, as was happy with the price and performance upgrade the NitroCharger Shocks and springs had to offer. As I’m mainly Overlanding and Touring, without getting into any extreme off road mud or rock climbing, this suspension has turned out Fab.

    Did you black out the grey plastics, or buy the OEM stuff? If you did it, did you take it all off (Inc mirrors), and in that case, how? I think I should have mine professionally painted, maybe with some clear too... but I also want to do the wheels, probably powder coating... thinking out loud now 🙂 Cheers, thanks for the video.
