Super bumps

Anybody have any feedback yet?

 

+1,

 

Bump for any feed back.

 

Waiting for feedback too.

 

set me up with a set for $30 and ill test them out and give a full report

 

maybe i should get on the boat and order a set

 

The ones we have do NOT fit the rear. You would have to make some sort of custom mount.

 

you had to bring it out haha

 

man you should paint your engine cover hahahaha jk btw you truck is sweetttt

 

are these front bump stops bigger than stock and if so by how much?

Just wondering if these would be good as a replacement to the factory ones to reduce up travel slightly and minimize upper guard rubbing due to bigger tyres?

 

Ordered today.
eta is Tuesday.

 

I was finally able to go out offroading Saturday and tested them out.

My tires still rub the upper inner fender liner at full compression when the front hits hard. I'll post some pics up later but basically it appears that the bumpstops are too short to fix this issue. My tires are 33" so those of you with stock size tires have a bit more up travel and can compress the bumpstop more before rubbing the fenders. After looking at the contact marks on the bump stops it looked as though only 1/2" of the bump stop was making any contact.




I'll be adding a 3/8" spacer and see how they perform later on. I had posed on a rock so I could take some pics and the front right tire had only 2" of clearance before hitting the fender.




I looked underneath and the bump stops were not even touching the lower arm yet. After adding the spacer I doubt the tires will rub the fender.

Before these I had the Timbrens and these do seem to absorb the impact a little better. And for the price difference, I see no reason to pass these up, they are by far better than the stockers.

If any one has questions, feel free to ask.

 

^^ idk about eveyone else but I wouldnt really want my bump stops to limit my uptravel, just to prevent metal on metal contact, so if they are doing that then they are doing their job

 

^^ Adding a spacer will if anything just decrease my up-travel slightly, but only traveling at a very low speed over obstacles. I'm mainly after making it so the tires don't hit the fenders as hard while traveling at a higher speed over obstacles.

Jounce bump-stops would be awesome and do exactly what I'm looking for but at a price I am not willing to spend anytime soon. So this is my cheaper solution to my problem.

 

NOW ON THE SITE!

 

Sweeeeeeeeet

 

These super bumps really are great! The stock bump stops do not compress at all, they are very rigid.

After installing I went out and tried to bottom out on some bumps. After going over the bumps several times I thought my truck was not even bottoming out. I couldn't understand what was going on. So I put a camera under the frame and noticed that I was bottoming out. The super bumps work so well I had no idea I was even bottoming out.
For the cost ($50 for the fronts) they are a must for anyone doing any off-roading.

Here is the video I shot after mounting the camera on the frame.
