About the brand
Old Man Emu is ARB's suspension brand, started in Australia in 1976 and owned by ARB since 1988. OME builds matched shock and spring systems for touring and loaded 4x4s, so the truck rides well with gear on board rather than just sitting taller.
Based in: Australia (sold in the US through ARB USA) · Lead time: In-stock parts typically ship in 24-48 hours; some items are special order
