    Yes I put the rear set on today that I got from you and totally love them so far, so your saying I could use another set for the front too? Or did I miss something?

    Oh! I understand what your saying now. I've got to many bump stops running through my head!!

    Your talking about the front bump stop on the front LCA. I was talking about REAR bump stops for the rear of the truck that mount to your leaf springs.

    As far as the front bump stop on the LCA, There is no need to replace that OEM bump stop. It works very well in conjunction with my bump stop. Out of all the bump stops I'm making now, I still love the 1st gen taco/3rd gen 4runner LCA's because they are running 2 bump stops each. Gives me tons of options and space to work with compared to the 2nd/3rd gen taco's that only have one bump stop.

    We on the same page now??

    Haha, yup got it, let me look at the rear spring stops and see if they have wear. I have helper springs on now because I run a double axle trailer. If the bump stops show that they are actually being hit I would definitely take a
    rear spring set. Same page now, :)

    No pictures anywhere, These guys are at Area 51 until there full release.

    I can say that there is nothing available on the market that is even close. That's why I made them, to fill the huge void in the industry.

    My rear bump stops will be offered in 3 sizes, No spacers used to obtain the proper height.
    Can mount to any rear leaf setup I've come across including mounting to your existing U-bolt flip kit.
    I will also be offering a complete U-bolt flip Kit w/ bump stops for guys interested in making the upgrade.

    and more cool stuff I cant remember right now...

    Well IF you were to decide to make a replacement front LCA bumper stop that was NOT the HARD rubber design, sign me up for a set.
    I hate the hard rubber bumps that Toyota makes.

    I saw something on your site which and you were speaking of rear bump stops which was why I asked. ATM I have the sumo bumpstops and they work great. I can unscrew them if I plan to do some flexing.

    Coming soon . I think we might be doing some RnD bashing them on the 28th . Curtis is busier than a one man band with work RnD production and GF . I spoke with him last week about the rear bumps and there will be a stock set up, a ubolt flip set up and also different lift options set up.
    I hope I helped answer some of the questions asked @Plastics Guy . I know you are burning the candle at both ends right now.

    I think it depends if they are I. Stock, I see most people get them in 5 days or so,
    I had to wait for the 2nd run of them so it was longer

    I pulled my front differential today and discovered my bushings were shot. Figured I would give these a shot.

    Yes Tacoma REAR Bump Stops are almost ready. Im trying to get these finished up this week, but It might get pushed into next week.


    @DukesTaco We are going to beat the hell out of these bump stops September the 8th. Got to get a pair of rear bumps on you truck before the fun!

    With all the crazy hours Ive been pulling trying to keep up with bump stop sales and other work, I wonder what my neighbors think about me. I'm up before them and still making noise in the back yard when they go to bed. Not a good look... especially in the dirty T.

    Yessir! lol.

    I have a couple of the diff bushings and front bump stops in stock for your truck. They can ship right away. You can make your purchase here toyotabumpstops.com
