Looking for a 2nd gen Guinea Pig.

Noted for future reference.

 

So, maybe I am having a reading comprehension fail here but the (rear) 3rd gen ones currently for sale are non-ubolt flip and, you are looking at ubolt flip compatible in the future?
I don't have a flip kit and I am not planning on one either. What I would be looking at would be removing the stock bump stop and then putting the new bumps on with a stock-compatible plate.

I will take a close look at the mod budget and perhaps be sending you a message soon.

 

That's 3rd gen 4runner Rear Bump stops for sale. they mount to the frame opposed to the axle like the Tacoma's. I have not looked into mounting my bumps to the stock plate. Once I catch up on a few projects I'll look into it.

Why don't you want a u-bolt flip kit??? gives more ground clearance and keeps the threads of the bolts off the rocks. Either way we can figure something out i'm sure.

 

Bumping the thread because I saw you launched your site.

Sorry I never answered. I'm just not really looking for a u-bolt flip kit as I don't plan on dragging the axle much.

Anyways I am looking forward to your 3rd gen rear bumps too, I will definitely pick up a full set!

 

Well it took me a little longer than I expected but work and honey do lists get in the way of play .
Here is a write up on theBump stops made by Curtisaka @Plastics Guy .
Here is a side by side picture of the stock rock hard bump stop of a 2nd Jen Tacoma followed by the first then the second and finally the third prototype .

As you can see the first was too short the second was better but the compression rate of the rubber was to fast or soft( I don't know the proper term but Curtis knows his rubber) . The third prototype was the right blend of rubber durometer and size.

Below is a picture of the second prototype Under full load and the shock removed. As you can see the bump stop compresses all the way down to one inch but was too distorted for Curtis is liking.


As soon as I sent these pics to Curtis he called me back and said I am making another set that will be firmer that that set . We spoke for a while and during that discussion is when I realized the knowledge that he has about rubber compounds and the passion that he has to bring a good quality product to the Toyota community .
Below is a picture of the 3rd prototype. It compresses down to 2 inches full load shock removed. At full load it keeps a perfect shape.

I did a little testing on these and could not feel the bump stops hitting the lca. That is until I got out and checked . I had put chalk on my lca platform to verify contact and they did hit but I felt nothing on the cab . The test consisted of a 40 to 60 mph through a G-out . Well to my surprise there was some compression and then some uncompression. I was not planning on it but a little air time was achieved. Below is a pic of the contact made by the bump stops and a video of thetest run.

So far supper satisfied and can't wait to get to testing the rear bump stops. Great job Curtis .

 

Good stuff! Can't wait to get mine and install them!
