    I'm seriously looking into some bump stops to finish up my trucks setup. I have icons all the way around, and a Deaver leaf pack. Everything works awesome but I can be pretty hard on my rig when I hit the trails. Sometimes I catch a little air under the tires. I really don't have the money yet for hydraulic bumps. For someone in my position, are the timbrens decent for offroading or are they purely for people hauling loads. And lastly if you do have them and offroad, how do they react when you bottom out? Thanks

    Well I just PMd Dan about the new front Poly-Foam bump stops for the front. Definitely picking up a set of those. As for the rear, sounds like the timbrens are the way to go. Maybe I'll hold out though just in case they come out with some poly-foam rears....
