Anyone tried these opposed to hard skateboard wheel poly stops? I'm interested in using them with a 2.5" front drop and have about a 1.5" arm gap. Ride comfort is excellent now and have NEVER bottomed out, but would like to reduce front brake dive, body roll, and lean. I've seen the Prothane EVS, AIM, Timbren, and others but was interested what has worked for you guys without the bone jarring ride high durometer poly gives when they hit.

Sorry it's a Taco forum. See post #40 for YouTube action.

Upon further reading, these would be too tall for my application. As mentioned, I have a 1 1/2" LCA gap. The SuperBumps measure 2 9/16" tall and the stock Tacoma's are 1 3/4". Wheeler's Off Road claims they compress to the stock length.
For me, that's bottomed out with negative 1/4" travel. Cutting doesn't sound too appealing since I haven't read of anyone there doing it. Measure twice, cut once? Polyurethane no problem, micro cellular foam, I'll wait for a guinea pig to trim them. Judging by the rave reviews and high demand may be worth consideration by the off road and street crowd here.
