The ARB VM80010035 Rear BP-51 Shock Fitting Kit is a vehicle-specific mounting hardware kit engineered for the rear suspension of the Toyota Tundra (models 2007–2021) designed to support the installation of the BP-51 bypass shock absorber system. ARB USA
Constructed from high-grade components, this kit includes precisely machined brackets and hardware that interface directly with OEM mounting points to ensure optimal alignment, durability and serviceability under heavy off-road loads. The mounting kit is intended to work in conjunction with the BP-51 shock unit to preserve geometry, minimize suspension deflection and enable full utilization of the shock’s variable compression- and rebound-damping controls.
Key Technical Features:
-
Purpose-designed mounting hardware: The kit is tailored for the BP-51 series and ensures correct fitment and orientation of the bypass shock body and remote reservoir.
-
OEM-compatible interface: Retains factory mounting locations on the Tundra chassis to avoid unnecessary modifications or alterations to structural points. ARB USA
-
Durable construction: Manufactured with materials and coatings suited to high-stress environments (off-road cycles, heavy articulation, exposure to debris, water and mud).
-
Warranty support: Backed by a 3-year limited warranty for the suspension component when installed per manufacturer instructions. ARB USA
Intended Application:
This fitting kit is intended for installation of the BP-51 bypass shock system on the rear suspension of the Toyota Tundra (2007 through 2021). It facilitates proper integration of the shock absorber and its hardware, ensuring repeatable performance characteristics and maintaining suspension travel and articulation without compromising vehicle structural integrity.

Expert FAQ:
Q: Does the VM80010035 kit alter ride height or suspension geometry of the Tundra?
A: No, the kit is a mounting hardware assembly only—it retains OEM mounting points and does not itself change ride height or geometry. The performance changes result from the shock absorber (BP-51) that it facilitates.
Q: Is this fitting kit compatible with any BP-51 shock or only vehicle-specific versions?
A: The kit is engineered specifically for BP-51 series rear shocks on the Toyota Tundra rear suspension. Compatibility with other vehicles or front-suspension versions must be confirmed via the manufacturer’s fitment list.
Q: What additional components are required besides this fitting kit to complete the installation?
A: You will need the BP-51 bypass shock absorber itself along with any reservoir mounting brackets if remote reservoir version is used, plus appropriate suspension spring and linkage components if applicable. This kit only provides the mounting hardware.
Q: How is the durability of the kit maintained under off-road loads and articulation?
A: Through the use of precisely machined hardware, coatings designed to resist corrosion and wear, and by retaining factory mounting interfaces which reduces unintended stress concentrations. The kit is designed to preserve dynamic suspension behaviour and prevent undue fatigue.
Q: Does installation of this kit affect the vehicle’s warranty or require chassis modifications?
A: As long as the kit is installed according to manufacturer instructions and paired with compatible components (BP-51 shocks), no structural modifications are required and the factory mounting points are utilized. It is recommended to verify with the vehicle manufacturer regarding warranty implications for after-market suspension upgrades.
