    Few questions. Anyone know if there is a rear bumpstop kit for Tacoma? Trying to get ahold of @M C M I think I saw a pic on his insta of a bolt on kit.

    I ordered the rear bypasses and want to add bumps to complete the rear.

    Sorry. Yes. I want ADS bump stops. Total Chaos has King and Fox but they are specific to those brands. Not sure why ADS has 2.125

    Yup, why not? Was tired of bottoming out on the OEM bump stops all of the time feeling like I was going to bend the frame.

    New leaf springs and shocks are on the list.

    I can think of many reasons of why not but it doesn’t matter what I think.

    As long as you’re happy with the setup! :thumbsup:

    I understand that the better solution to bottoming out would be to get leaf springs that better support the weight I carry and shocks that will provide better damping than factory. But, I didn't want anything that created a ton of lift in the rear yet and also didn't want to spend money on factory length aftermarket shocks.

    An
    $190 add-a-leaf kit for 1995-2023 toyota tacoma - 21.5" short AAL set with isolator pads and square bend u-bolts
    add-a-leaf kit is a cheaper temporary solution and hydros were going to happen eventually no matter what. So, 3 leaf add-a-leaf and hydro bumps it is haha :D

    I thought I recall ADS telling me the internals were different inside the ifp and the remote reservoirs. I was thinking of getting the standard length non reservoirs and adding clickers and reservoirs later on.

    It needs to be re valved, but that can also be purchased.

    Swapped out my Icon uniballs for JBA's. The Icons were noise as f**k, so hopefully this solves the groaning noise at full compression. Also, they look a lot better.

    Yes. I'll be running the JBA's for a bit first, to make sure everything is working right, but soon I'll let the Icons go
