Nitrocharger Shock Absorbers

The latest addition to Old Man Emu’s 4WD suspension range, Nitrocharger is the most advanced and innovative 4×4 shock absorber on the market, and is now available for a range of vehicles. Designed by a dedicated team of OME ride control engineers through an exhaustive vehicle specific development program, Nitrocharger 4×4 shock absorbers deliver the best control, durability and most comfortable ride over all terrain.

Where the purpose of a spring is to carry the load of a vehicle and its cargo, a shock absorber works to control the spring by absorbing excess energy and, in doing so, has a profound impact on your vehicle’s ride and handling.

During the development of OME’s Nitrocharger shock absorbers, particular focus is placed on how well they are matched to the specific springs they’ll be controlling, with Ride Control Engineers tailoring shock absorber valving to work with the different springs in the range, often resulting in multiple shock absorber options for each vehicle. Whether it’s for work or play, ARB has a solution for just about any application.

Nitrocharger Advantage

The Nitrocharger range utilizes significant advances in key componentry and the latest in valving technology to provide tremendous improvements in ride, comfort and handling over all terrains.

Vehicle specific valving ensures the proper valving is matched to your spring selection, accessory fitment and load carrying requirements, meaning there’s a Nitrocharger Shock Absorber to suit your needs, no matter what the terrain or intended vehicle use.

Nitrocharger Shock Absorbers offer the most cohesive, balanced and finely tuned valving system on the market.
