How to install progressive bump stops. We changed our OEM bumps to a set of SumoSprings, and couldn't be happier with the results.

Replaced the front bumper stops on my 4runner. Made the next off-road trip so much smother and less jarring. Just get something other than stock and you will be happy

I’ve been running Sumo Springs on my 4R for 1.5 years. I’ve been happy with them, especially when loaded down with extra weight.

Thank you for taking the time to let us know about the two bump stop options. I was going to buy the ones you put on your 4Runner for mine pretty soon and had seen those Sumo's floating about. They look a little cheesy in my opinion from the shape and the color blue they chose. The ones you put on you 4Runner at least gives a OEM look to it that blends with the rig very well. I also agree with your point on the longevity of the rubber in harsh terrain.

I replaced rubber suspension bushings with polyurethane ones many years ago. The poly ones started squeaking almost immediately.

Very cool. Just ordered a set front and back for my 2022 4Runner. I’m in dry SoCal so should be fine. Can’t wait to throw them on after Xmas

Planning to put the duro bump stops on my 07 FJ soon, hopefully I notice a difference!

Made a huge difference in my ‘19 Pro, less brake dive and helps with my extra weight.

I have SS on my 11000 lb Sprinter van, front and back plus also on my 4wd Nissan Titan which I use to haul a 10000 lb camping trailer. The SS are holding up very nicely. No noise and smoothed out the ride on both vehicles.

Curious about the dampening of your shocks and settings doesn't act as if it is dampening much just by observation of video only but enjoy watching the videos keep them coming great for others to not waste time and money money purchasing and trying parts that work or not

I have a set of the Sumo springs on the rear suspension of my Xterra, and other than being dirty, they are holding up fine. This will be the fourth winter having them on the vehicle and I live in the rust belt as well

ls your front LCA bushing supposed to be moving around that much?!?!? I wish Toyotas had more up travel. My Tacoma has about 2 inched before it hits the Timbren bump stops. Super Spring sent us a set as well and I have yet to try them out. The TImbren stops are pretty harsh mostly because they rebound a lot because they're rubber.

I'd use antisieze, not loctite, especially in your climate. You should have used it on the aluminum spacers for sure. Always use it when mating steel and aluminum.

The factory bump stop bolt broke off from the corrosion of the exposed threads you can get to above the lower control arm. Tried welding a bolt and now Im going to do the ball joints and drill it out and retap both.

Update: found a angle drill attachment at Harbor Freight and it worked. Tapped the threads and for good measure I put a lock nut inside the bump stop mount over the bolt. Im happy with the ride quality when I take a hard ( cringe) hit. Ride right air bags on the rear of my 2nd gen Tacoma give me a vehicle I can work. Just picked up 522 bricks a load.

Edit on 7/13/ 2024 for clarity: 2008 FJ Cruiser: I never had an issue with the OE bump stops connecting with the rear frame nor the front Total Chaos LCA's. The tare weight (empty) with ARB bumpers/rack/winch, skids, sliders, etc. is 5120 LBS. Rear: ICON Dual Rate Overland Springs - Part # IVD 52800 Front: ICON 700 LBS Coil Springs - Part # IVD 158508 The OEM are worn out now, so I ordered F/R Duro Bumps for $395 since they were on 4th of July sale.

Do you have extra weight on Your fj? Like Steel bumpers or rooftop tent? I’m in Tucson…no lift. Do you have a lift?

Hi, I could be wrong, but I thought the instructions say to have the rear bumpstops installed with the offset towards the wheels. I will double check
@wesleypowers8 ай бұрын
Maybe it’s different for the FJ.
@WanderlostOverland8 ай бұрын
It does say that in the instructions but, it would have come to close to our ABS lines.

Time is the true test to see how long these will last compared to the Toyota part. If it is made in china, I will give a year before it cracks. If I were you, I would keep the old parts just in case.

For the rear did you get 1400lbs or 1800lbs? I noticed they have two different ratings. I only ask because i do not have a rear bumper but in the future i hopefully will

I have these on my F-150 with a camper on it. I use it off-road a lot. After 4 years they still work perfectly. They have however lost their blue paint. Why would you complain about the durability of a product that comes with a lifetime warranty.

Serious question, do you do offroading/real wheeling and crawling?
@stephbarbershop25187 ай бұрын
I do! And when I attend FJ off road events I find that Im the only one willing to wheel hard. Lots of posers in the FJ community. For some reason they love the green trails, and don't like scratching their skids or sliders. @@unclbuck79
