Old Man Emu OME Parabolic Leaf Springs and Air Bags Toyota Land Cruiser 78 Series Troop Carrier 1999-on

Old Man Emu parabolic leaf springs offer a next-level solution for on and off road use, with flexible options for varying amounts of weight.

Model: Toyota Land Cruiser 78 Series Troop Carrier – 1999-on
Estimated Lift: 45mm
Maximum Airbag Pressure: 45psi
Notes: Airbag kit is mandatory when fitting OME parabolic springs. The airbag kit should not be used with conventional multi-leaf springs. When fitting parabolic springs to a vehicle with a rear sway bar, the mount plate may contact the sway bar & will need to be spaced down with 2 x OME ELSK06 and 1x OME UCB17. Other parts may also be required if installing to a vehicle which is not already lifted to around 45mm.

Air Bag Kit
This kit contains all required parts to fit air bags alongside your OME parabolic springs. The air bags are mandatory when fitting OME parabolic springs and can only be fitted with parabolic springs – not with conventional leaf springs. Unless other inflation options are selected, the air bags are inflated and deflated via a Schrader valve, using a compressor or foot pump or at a petrol station.

Bluetooth Control Module
This option allows the operation of your airbags via your smartphone. A compatible ARB on-board air compressor is required (any of the three ARB compressor sizes are suitable).

Linx Control Module
Control your airbags via the ARB Linx accessory control system. This product is available separately and can control many accessories including lights, compressors, air lockers and more. A compatible ARB on-board air compressor is required (any of the three ARB compressor sizes are suitable).

Purge Control Kit
This kit allows the purging of air from your air bags. You will need to have either the Bluetooth Control Module or ARB Linx system fitted, along with a compatible ARB on-board air compressor.

Whether you are travelling on-road, using your vehicle for green laning or competition purposes, or towing a caravan or trailer, the importance of a fully integrated 4×4 suspension system is paramount. Often, factory suspension setups cannot cope with extended heavy use and over time your springs can corrode or begin to sag. Shock absorbers can also become degraded or start to leak. Handling and load carrying can then suffer and eventually, if not replaced, components can fail. This could render the vehicle un-roadworthy and may even leave you stranded or cause an accident.

Old Man Emu parabolic leaf springs and suspension upgrades are designed for next-level comfort and performance across all terrain, providing noticeable improvements to vehicle performance, increased load carrying capacity and control characteristics. For a market leading combination of ride performance and comfort, OME have created a system which combines lightweight parabolic leaf springs with a unique airbag system. Featuring an internal bump stop, the airbag modules can be run without any air so as to avoid the common issue with partially inflated airbags – degraded ride quality. When you need extra support, just inflate the airbags and carry on with your load properly supported and the vehicle running at the correct ride height.

Manual inflation and deflation is simple via a standard Schrader valve, or you can add Bluetooth or ARB Linx inflation options as required. For any remotely controlled inflation options, a separate ARB air compressor will be required. OME parabolic springs and airbags are intended to be installed as part of a suspension lift kit; do let us know if you need any help choosing other suspension upgrades.

Selecting the right springs for your vehicle weight and usage is very important. Most standard vehicles, without extra permanent weight, will benefit most from a medium-rate setup. Some kits are given a weight rating in kg, this applies to permanent front or rear accessory weight such as steel bumpers, winches, etc. Other kits are rated for “bull bar”, “bar and winch” and so on; this refers to full-weight protection bumpers and bull bars.
