Wheelers Off-Road Bumpstops: Who's got them?

Is wheelers off road offering any discounts for TW members?

 

Not that I recall

 

I dig my Wheelers Superbumps. Much, much better than stock.

 

i like my superbumps a lot. I have them spaced a little but i think i need to do some more on each side. but ill wait until i swap my LCAs to do that because without them off or disconnected at the BJ its a pain. Only "issue" i had was my allen head didnt fit into the bolts, i had to file the edges of the supplied allen wrench to fit. It was very rough and not allowing it be be useful.

 

Just installed mine and @james Daniel 's. Should've done this a long time ago. Instantly could tell the difference. I have a street with some serious dips in it nearby and it's always my testing ground for any suspension/tire mod. I hit them pretty hard and winced a little as I waited for the jolt... but there was nothing. Only the sweet, sweet bliss of Cadillac smoothness that the Superbumps provided. Only took about 20 min to do both trucks. Cut the allen key down by about 1-1 1/4" or so and jacked up the trucks to get the LCA as far away from the mount as possible. No need to remove the tires.
Thanks to the guys @Wheeler's Off-Road, Inc , Josh and @YotaDan

 

^ i agree

 

Can't wait!
Mine arrived today but I've got to wait til schedules work out to get the new goodies installed. Wheelers bumps front and rear and new bilsteins front and rear. Looking forward to this "Cadillac" feel. I think I know who caused you to order these.

 

Looks like I need a set. Popped a couple rivets on my rear fenders tucking this weekend.

 

Well this happened...








Can't wait to get on the trail next month and give them a work over

 

What rear flip kit is that?

 

Looks like All-Pro

 

Yep. Ordered it from Wheelers too. Only thing I didn't get from them was the front struts/shocks.

 

I love my Super Bumps. Got them for front and rear and wow what a difference when I go over some whoops. I've hit both the fronts and rears and it's so much softer than the factories. I had no installation issues on the fronts of my '06, and the rears with the All-Pro flip kit work out perfect. I'm a happy camper.

 

How much do the bump stops compress? I was doing some wheeling this past weekend and had some clearance issues with the tires and fender flares. Trying to figure out if new bump stops will limit the uptravel of the rear, or just makes it more comfortable? I'm thinking this may be a "my tires are to big issue" vs a bump stop issue. Any help is much appreciated.

 

anybody have any dimensions on these? wondering how tall they are, it didnt specify on the site. also if you were carrying a load could your frame sit on the bump for a bit if you had to haul something? thanks

 

From what I understand, you do NOT want to be riding on the bumpstops. If youre carrying a load that heavy, you should look into airbags or beefier leafs.

 

Has anyone found it necessary to add spacers to these bumpstops due to them compressing more than stock? I have a fairly standard lift at 2.5" front and 1.5" rear on 5100s.

 

Only with 33" tires and under hard compression.

 

You should be fine with regular 5100's in the rear and not needing spacers. I have the slightly longer B110 Bilstein 5100's (meant for 4-5" lifts) for better downtravel and I'm coming really close to topping out the shock if I were to slam into a whoop and fully compress my springs/shocks (I have Dakars with out helper leaf). I'll probably add a little bit of spacer to the bumpstops (I'm using the All-Pro Ubolt flip kit, FYI) just to protect the shock. So, if you choose shocks that are longer than the standard 5100 meant for 3" lifts, you should probably space them a good 1/2" to a full 1".

I took the truck out on an off-camber trail to fully compress one of the rear wheels. I was just touching the bump stop, but not compressing it, and my shock didn't have much room left to compress. For now I'll go slower on trails until I add spacers.
