I dont think they're very interested in the Jeep game anymore. I recently tried contacting them 4 different times to get accurate specifications and information on their different springs for TJ/LJ and they couldn't even seem to help with that. They kept pointing to their own website and online catalogue but both of them have different specs and numbers between each other. When bringing that up, they didnt seem to care to make any sort of corrections. Doesnt sound to me like they are very interested in the Jeep platform.

Most of Old Man Emu profits are driven by sales in Australia. Based on the number of Gladiators that have sold over there, I would expect you will be waiting forever.

That makes a ton of sense. It isn't cheap anymore to export from Oz to the US, especially when you're dealing with heavy suspension bits. Shame though. Hopefully ARB stays in the market unlike TJM.

Old Man Emu was my go to on TJ's. Good quality and fair price. I used the 5.5 suspension lift and it was awesome. I would be a player on Gladiator stuff.

They responded to my email.. tacoma is Priority.

“”Hello, I checked with our team, it is still something we are visiting, however there hasnt been much movement. Particularly the rear end. The standard JL stuff does fit on the front, granted there is likely weight variances on the diesel models if this happens to be one of those. It will be the rear end that still needs to be developed. Unfortunately that is a project that has been pushed back due to the new gen Toyotas that have come out this last year, and next year (since we are Australian based, they tend to focus on their new Toyota prados and hilux that they get over there before coming back to the US applications like the jeeps). I wouldnt expect to see anything anytime soon. Realistically, we probably wont revisit this one until they finish development on the 4th gen Tacoma, and new Hilux that is coming out in AU next year. It will still be a while I am afraid””
