Bump stop?

[rookieshooter]

Any input on this style bumpstop is appreciated. Needed for slow trail rides with rocks, lots of rocks. I'm running Fox CO's

Those should work great. The same idea as an air bump but with adjustments coming from the different bushing you put inside. Seems like a great idea for rock crawlers as compared to air bumps for desert trucks.

Well did some further research and came up with too many negatives. Seems like air is the way to go.
Several guys had the foam fall apart on the first outings, plus the instructions say that the foam only lasts so many compresions. And the price does not include cans.

That's disappointing... At least you found out before purchasing.

Research Timbrens. They're not an airbump by any means but i love them. They're an actual rubber "spring" so you do get some rebound.

Sounds interesting. Found some good info for applications.
