Timbren Active Off Road Bump Stops

[KurtP]

A word on these: they are amazing.

They control suspension bottom out so smoothly and return it just as smoothly. They really do feel very much like the hydro bump stops up front on the Mojave.

I am really happy with these. If you’re off-roading and bottoming out, id venture a guess these are as good as it gets short of a hydro stop.

Just looking at these the other day. If I recall, they also do not require any cutting/modding to the existing bump stop mounts, right?

***edit: Just kidding, I was looking at the Icon Hydro bump stops.

What’s the link for this setup?

Looks like using these with a lift will require spacers included for the factory bumpstops? I'm really pleased with the Terraflex bump stops and they're good 0-4" - but I've no idea how they made that determination!

Edit to add: $450 for front and rear is pretty damned steep compared to Terraflex for $99!

Get what you pay for. The terraflex is just another brick of foam pretty much like any other. There’s nothing unique about them nor do they add any functionality. ??‍

My butt g-meter said they make a difference, so I'm happy for the money. I have a nice ramp at work that gives me a place to compare.

Still would like to know if bumpstop extensions are required with a Timbren setup.

Yep. Use the bump stop extensions as specified for your lift so they engage at the correct time

So the kit comes with extensions? If so, any idea what lift range the extensions are good for?

your lift kit should have bump stop extensions. These just replace the bump stop themselves.

Anyone else install these and have any tips?

They welded the all metal lock nut onto the backing plate, preventing it from distorting and severely deforming the bolt during installation.

It also looks like the backing plate will need to be trimmed to fit inside the Mojave passenger side bump stop bracket. On the Mojave the bracket is boxed and doesn't leave enough clearance for the plate.
