I concur it's one of the best mods a person can install. Especially if you run on fire roads with alot of ruts or coming off ledges. I considered teraflex speed bumps but when these came out. I was like it's the same concept but 600$+ cheaper. Best decision I did.
Just installed these and tested. I did a before and after test drive. What a difference. I didn’t have to remove my RK springs. I was able to squeeze it in while it was unloaded. Awesome simple upgrade. No maintenance of other styles of bump stops.
@@maxdominguez5543 I lifted the jeep by the frame extending the suspension with weight of the axle and tires. Sadly the jeep was totaled. Going to install the same ones on the new Jeep.
I’ve been beating up my JK for the last 8 years, finally looking at upgrades, but keeping it mostly stock so I can guide others (just trying to get more people to wheel). This looks like a perfect add. Thanks and new subscriber!
Just did this upgrade on my Jeep, based on the recommendation here. It is a worthwhile upgrade. My front stock bump stops crumbled in my hand as I removed them. Very, very happy with this replacement.
I have the M/C control arms & my Jeep handles sooo much better than before. I was thinking of buying the springs & bump stops, but now after your vid(s), know they are the one. M/C stuff is pricey but I feel one of the best out there. Thanks for the vid brah 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
I’ve been running these same Metalcloak Durospring jounce stops for about the last 9 months/15k Mike’s and really like them as well. Feels more controlled as the axles are progressively slowed at compression. Mike
They make a noticeable difference in general feel. I was completely surprised and happy. Plus, I honestly think that huge impact I took in Baja would've broken something without that bump "taking one for the team". LOL
With all the rain we've been having out here Jason (I'm right up the road from you in Rosamond), I haven't bothered washing the vehicles in a few weeks. And your gauge is very similar to how we service the struts on jets.
@autoedits awesome video and I just grabbed the Teraflex progressive bump stops and installed them yesterday afternoon on my JT! I can't wait to take it out for a test drive. Thanks for the video!
@@JEEPIMPACT they weren't nearly as harsh as the OEM'S but I'm running an Icon Vehicle Dynamics suspension system now with their 2.0 Hydraulic Bump Stops and those are like butter they are so smooth.
These are a must on any vehicle that tows or attempts to bottom out.....I use timbren springs on ram with 6inch lift. They reduced body roll and stress off the springs.
Hey jason, i think its time for a prorock 44 front axle upgrade 😂👀 you'll notice a huge difference right away on how the jeep drives with the added caster to the housing plus itll give you some more on trail confidence
I did the rear, no problem! For the front, wear did you put your jack stands? Can't use the axle sice I need the droop. I could see your were behind, but I couldn't tell exactly wear they were. Thanks!
Great question... I have to do it in a two step process. Jack from the center of the front axle and put your jack stands in position on the frame rails by the front body mounts. Carefully remove the tires and then let the jack down to rest on the jack stands under the frame and droop all the way down. 👍
AutoEdits - I just want to Thank You for posting your really informative videos! You simplify everything and give people like me the confidence that I too can do what you have done. I was leery about replacing the Front Bump Stops, due to the Spring Coil, but using the Spring Compressor made it a breeze. Keep up the Great Job Jason!
Maybe it is just the camera lens effects / angle or the bump stop behind combined with the dual rate spring changes, but that front driver spring looks a little bent toward you just below the dual rate transition at 10:24. May want to eyeball that versus the passenger side. Hopefully nothing, but you may have damaged the spring too?
Thanks for the alert... I thoroughly checked and it's just that the shocks allow so much droop the track bar moves the axle over several inches. All good.
After I guy got crushed under his jeep in ridgecrest during a quake I always leave my floor Jack and stands sharing the load....shaking the jeep reminded me of that guys fait.....
I can't even imagine what negative reviews can be about foam bumpstops but I've been very happy with them. Even after replacing the fronts from over use... they were still actually fine and I held on to them as spares. Excellent cheap upgrade that works.
@@AutoEdits negative reviews are mainly from cold weather affecting them and making them rock hard. That doesn’t bother me as I live in Australia so it’s warm. But I’ve also seen some reviews say they are quite stiff. One reviewer said they were super stiff at first and he waited thinking they just needed time to work in but they remained stiff so he swapped them out. How long did yours last before you replaced them?
Thank you for the great tip! I’ve wondered how to make that experience better as I regularly slam down hard on my stock bump stops. Can you provide more info on those extension hockey pucks you have installed? Many TIA
AutoEdits many many thanks!! I’ve recently gone from AEV springs to Terraflex 3” springs to Terraflex 4” springs and I’m certain now I should look at the bumps and extensions.
Just so no one else makes the same stupid mistake I did. The bump stops are different between the front and the rear. The rear are bigger in diameter. I figured it out after about the 10th try. What a bone head I are! 🤪
Are these going to be too stiff with a raptor swaybar(its basically currie, different company) Do they still compress well when crawling?, do they "break in" after awhile, sorry for all the questions, not a ton on the internet for these with JKUS
@@AutoEdits Awesome, i just picked up a pair. Do you know anyone w/ experience with them in the cold?? Im guessing not, but cant find that on the internet. Thanks for the vid!
AutoEdits yeah i was thinking of doing that first , i got metalcloak lift kit too and i get a lot of flex i was thinking if i can remove the front ones without taking the springs out , maybe if i flex it enough i can get my hands between the springs.
Have you installed them yet ? I just tried doing mine and it felt nearly impossible . im going to wait for summer here in the NE I'm hoping its because its so cold out they fought me
@@WranglerAddiction will definitely have to give this tip a shot , like i said i just tried installing them and could not get them to budge in not even a little bit
Aloha! I am wanting to use the coil compressor approach on my rig as well for removing the springs. What is the size of your lift? Wondering if I can use these for 4" lift springs?
Ok just did my bump stops on a 2016 sport 2dr.that is stock don't waste your time with the spring compressor just drop the sway bar its a few shield press ins 4 bolts for the sway bar and the 2 lower shock bolts. I tried to use the compressor and no way more work on a stock JEEP, watch the rubber brake lines and ABS don't get pulled too tight almost got me not watching after that it was very easy
This is so AWESOME of you to ask! There isn't anything... I didn't even tell them I was doing this video so they don't even know...LOL I just like these things that much. If there is a spot in the notes during your order just type "Pint the Dog sent me!" Thank you!!!!!!
@@AutoEdits I was surprised to see that you were wheeling with out gussets at the minimum. But then again I have an aggressive driving style and I know with out trussing and gussets my d44 would've bent already
Do these front ones help out from bottoming out your front struts?I raised my vehicle like an inch and my front struts bottom out?what do you suggest ?bump stop spacers?
Are those bump stops made for your lift ? I see there an inch or so taller ? If replacing on a stock jeep aren't you limiting travel on the suspension ! I can see the need in a lift and even limit straps so you don't blow out your shocks . But I think taller bump stops on stock wouldn't be a good idea
The stock bumpstops are trash, they basically compress flat and are made for much slower speeds. I imagine these guys would work for high or low speeds and give you a softer landing than the stock stops. So they're not specific for a lift but they work with the lift because he's got additional bumpstop pads. For stock, it'll just soften the lower limit, it's not a hard stop like that factory when you compress the factory one that compresses entirely to the cup.
I’m running 35s on stock height and have a little rub when at full articulation in my fenders. Could these possibly keep that from happening. I have flat fenders and stubby bumpers
Those are JW Speaker Trail 6 flood lights since my turn signals are integrated into the headlights ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qwHOvTxjqWQ.html
Does anyone out there know how much under severe impact these things compress. I installed them in my 2014 wrangler and I am wondering how much puck spacers I should put in
On the rear, for sure. In the front... you might if you don't have MetalCloak springs. They are thicker and don't offer enough room to fit the bump through... even at full droop.
Oh, thank you for your answer, friend, and I understand, it was just a snatch that you had 😁😁😁, I only see that it is a great company for you, Greetings.👍
@@AutoEdits that’s a little different than prolonged teens to -20. I’ve talked to a couple of guys out west in higher altitudes and northern states that had to swap them out. They are great in the summer. Smooth ride. Just bricks in the winter.
