ARB Upper Strut Bush Hilux 05On - OME3133Find parts that fit my vehicle

Traditionally Old Man Emu has recommended re-using the Original Equipment (OE) bushes, washers and crush tube when upgrading suspension with Old Man Emu struts and coils. Provided the original bushes are in good condition this is fine. However feedback from the market has been there is a need for replacement bushes due to either age of the vehicle or wear and tear of the original bushes and washers. Old Man Emu engineers are pleased to have developed a range of replacement Upper strut bushes, washers and crush tubes (where applicable) for a range of the most popular strut fitments. The replacement bush kit uses the latest polyurethane technologies delivering outstanding abrasion resistance, flexibility & resistance to oil, grease and weathering. Replacement heavy duty washers and crush tubes (where applicable) are also included in these kits along with detailed fitting instructions to ensure correct placement of all components when fitting the strut assembly. The Application guide has now been updated to recommend the fitment of the new bush kit part number but also notes if the OE bushes may be re-used if in good condition.

Suspension components are key to making sure your car is riding smoothly on or off the road. With upgraded suspension components, you can unlock the full potential of your vehicles performance.

The origins of ARB can be traced back to Australia's remote Top End, circa 1975. A region of vast distances and rugged terrain, it was fast becoming a Mecca for the nation's burgeoning 4WD community. However, the very environment that attracted 4 wheelers also wreaked havoc on their equipment - when driving in extreme conditions, only the best 4x4 accessories will do.

This was the conclusion drawn by Tony Brown during his travels at the time. While exploring the treasures of the Top End, the skills Tony gained from working on his Land Rover were regularly called on to mend damaged bull bars and broken roof racks. Bar work back then was crude, not at all suited to overland touring, and through this experience an idea was born - high quality equipment that met the vigorous demands of 4WD owners.

Upon returning to Melbourne, Tony put theory into practice via the family garage, where he sought to address the product deficiencies he'd encountered. His vision called for a combination of sound design principles and reliable raw materials... a simple solution to an endemic problem. The concept was embraced when it hit the fledgling 4x4 market, and ARB - the initials of Anthony Ronald Brown - was founded.

Today, ARB is Australia's largest manufacturer and distributor of 4x4 accessories. We also have an international presence, with an office in the US and an export network that extends through more than 80 countries around the globe. Our philosophy, however, has never wavered from its original course - quality, reliability and practicality above all else.
