How are you liking them so far? Seriously considering adding these to the front of my 98 LX which is HEAVY. Adding the Timbrens to the rear, but can't afford to add the Timbren to the front as well.
Man, you always seem to make a video on stuff I'm thinking about too LOL. I used to bottom out all the time. I had those same Methods in black, but I thought it was because of the 0 offset wheel, and that I went to 285's. I've since gone back to a 275 running on Icons. The Icons have a +25mm offset. I'm definitely thinking of getting these bump stops when I do my suspension upgrade. Are they still holding up? Question: how did you get the front caps on your wheels?
The Big Empty _ Lol...These hump stops are holding up great. I wish I would’ve installed these as soon as I got the wheels and tires. As for the Method center caps, I they are a cap for a Tundra. I have the part number if want it. Thanks again for watching!
First of all... thank you for watching the video. These bump stops are great, they haven’t cracked or failed me. They almost feel like a hydraulic bump. They’re a great bump stop for the price.
Thanks for watching the video! They’re holding up great. I only put them on the front because I figured that two would be one too many according to some threads on the mud. I still have the stock bumps in as well. Check out my suspension video. I have a camera angle that shows the suspension cycling.
What wheels and tires are you running size and brand please. Love your videos. Keep them coming. I just recently purchased an lx470 and am wanting to get into overlanding. I’m near Sacramento, CA Do you go on trails near here? If so could I join?
Congrats on the new purchase and thank you for watching the video. I no longer have AHC, hopefully my next video will be about the suspension I installed. It’s a bit of a mix match of different components. I’m currently in Method mr305nv 17x 8.5 with Nitto Terra Grappler G2 285/70 17 Thanks again for the support
@LXPlore The 100 series LC uses 4 bump stops in the front, 2 per side. I got one set of timbren active off-road and one set of wheeler's but, I had some problems. The timbren's and the wheeler's are very different in length. After talking to my mechanic, he recommended getting both sets of the same length since having different lengths can put stress on some components. I am going to recommend the same to you. I will get another set of wheeler's. the timbren active offroad bump stops are 225 dollars, I can't justify getting another set. I just put less than 50 miles on the ones I have. I will take them off. If someone is interested in them, they can let me know, we can make a deal.
Thanks for watching the video. You’ll have to let me know if the ride is rougher with another set of bump stops. I appreciate the suggestion and look forward to your feedback.
Thank you for watching the video. I wish I would’ve measured. I would have to say the lose is minimal or even negligible. The Wheeler bumps compress a lot and act like a progressive spring. I also added SPC uppers and probably gained some down travel. Check out my suspension video. I have some slow motion video of the suspension cycling. th-cam.com/video/ziVTw49DjTc/w-d-xo.html
@@LXPlore Is there a reason why you should not add them if your AHC is still working properly? Is it due to the LOW setting? I put in 34's on stock suspension and every now and then I get some minor rub on the fender well.
@@bcastane1 yeah not sure I would install them to an LX if the AHC is working. Do you have your AHC modified to ride in the high position all of the time? There’s too many sensors and I think run the risk of destroying your AHC. Your running issue could be a bunch of different things. The wheel offset, the torsions are tired, the torsions need to be reindexed, you’re driving it a little hard with large tires. Hope that helped
I know this is 3 years later, but I have a well maintained and functional AHC system that's completely stock. I installed these bumpstops and they work great! I ran some pretty difficult trails which made the ride extremely rough, but with these bumpstops, it made the ride much better with much less noticeable suspension crash over higher speed whoops bumps. On road, feels no different than stock. Hope that helps if you still have your rig and haven't yet tried them out.
@@LXPlore - thx - I recently rode in a friends 3rd gen 4runner with durobumps in front and it was the best offroad suspension feel I have ever experienced
@@LXPlore hey John, I put them on earlier today and since I still have the AHC I did notice they make constant contact with the lower control arms. I did notice they make the comfort mode feel a bit more the like the sport mode just not as stiff. My only concern is if and how this will affect the hydrolic pressures. My ultimate goal is an Ironman 4x4 stage 3 lift but rhats after the AHC fails. Going to do a truck trail to see if they solve the bottoming out issue with the Falken 285's. Also got a AZ trip planned, Phenix, Flagstaff and Sedona next month.
bardiya khorram They’re a great addition to my rig. Just recently I took it out off roading. The tires never once hit the fenders.. The price was right and works like it should. I definitely recommend the Wheeler hump stops.
bardiya khorram Hahaha... you know they’re alright for stock height suspension. Since I’ve lifted the vehicle, I’m going to need a longer shock. I would love to get some Ironman Offroad Foam Cell shocks.
Thanks for sharing this mod!
Mister Memo Absolutely! 💪🏻😎
Thanks for the tip, 285 Falkens really get close to top of that fender, almost scared to hit a bump.
You’re welcome, glad I could help.

I love them ... i need to do a follow up video. They’ve held up on and off road. I haven’t rubbed the fender liner since the install.
Just ordered them!
Noice! Definitely better than stock. Super easy install too

Interesting, how are these holding up? And you only needed to replace the front?
How was it offroad?

@@REMYLEONEL Thanks again
@@LXPlore I am happy to report that comfort has been improved significantly.
@@REMYLEONEL Nice! I really like these bumps. I may have to look into getting another set.

Thanks for the tip. Are these worth getting if you still have AHC in use.?
Enrique Sonora I would say no if your AHC is working properly. Are your wheels hitting your fender well?

you installed in the forward position? I see wheelers says to use the rear position? are mudd guys doing forward position?
Thanks for watching the video. You’ll get mixed reviews on mud. Some say front, some say rear and some say both.

@@wolffo999 the 100 series suspension is limited but, wait until you get a pair of Wheelers.
@@LXPlore - how do wheelers compare to durobumps? I see durobumps at $113 for set of 2
@@wolffo999 sorry I don’t know. I’ve never had a set of duros.
@LXPlore. Was your rig lifted or stock height at time of install?
Thanks for watching the video. I cranked the torsion bars, lifting the front end appropriately an inch.
Hey just curious as to who the competitor is?
Timbren makes a bump stop for the 100 series. Great product just cost more.
@@LXPlore thanks, just got my wheelers in the mail, going on this weekend.

Would you consider them an upgrade over OEM?
