    Are these bump stops supposed to turn out or is Toyota messing with my head?

    4 run, 2 don't
    Pipe wrench, and they'll unscrew right off.

    They have a bolt coming out the bottom that screws into a factory welded nut in the LCA.

    Yeah they come off pretty easy surprisingly enough.

    Durobump stops are awesome, but if you're not wheeling, not worth upgrading them.

    Careful that the nut doesn't break like it did for @eon_blue

    He's got that fucker JB welded on the driver side :laughing:

    What’s the advantage of the durobumps? Softer landing when you bottom out?

    I never managed to get mine off, even with a pipe wrench. I think most people ignore the fender washers from Bilstein/OME

    But that just dents your frame stop and gives you more down travel :D

    It's got lots of room for the aftermarket to make it into a beast

    I broke them loose with the bench vise, then turned them with the pipe wrench till they were easy enough to turn by hand. Wasn’t too bad.


    What fender washers?
