icon bump stops

[Wolfman00]

ok, so i hit a speedbump pretty fast in my neighborhood. 40. (closed course/professional drive) ha

oe bumpstop felt like i got assraped when i hit it.

icon bump- wayyyyy smoother. night and day. springs go slightly negative when they get into the icon bump though. icon said is wasnt a problem.

Anyone have real world experience on how much of a difference these make? I'm running the bilstein 5100's all around, but if these bump stops would be a large improvement in ride quality or bottom out performance I'd be interested.

just responded above

I am pairing these with the add-a-leaf, with some king shocks (Custom length approx 2"-3" more travel than stock). Excited to see the improvement!

Another good option is the Ford Raptor bumpstops. I've paired them with the global progressive leafs and am quite happy.

One user has reported recent luck I think.

2019 - yes the bump stop slipped out easy- was trying to take bolt out to install Timbren SES bump stop and bolt snapped - i figure the top nut is spot welded to frame - easy job turned into a pain

How difficult was it to extract that bolt? I snapped mine today trying to remove it

mine came right out. no problems. i put a small dab of grease on it when i reinstalled to make it easier to get back out if i had to.

I just swapped mine out this morning. They were right but got them out without too much trouble. Hit them pb blaster, then hit with impact and then used breaker bar and did small back and forth. Took more time getting truck jacked up and tire off. I am glad I read about others problems with these bolts so I didn’t just go in and muscle away right off the line.

Man I thought this thread was about the icon 2.0 hydro bumps haha

you put some grease or anti seize on them? since that area gets blasted with everything,

Yeah I put some anti-seize on them when put them back in.

This is the route I may end up going. You have a part number or where I can pick up the raptor bump stop you used? Also how easy was the bolt to break free?

 

[Shoran12]

Hmm i broke the bottom 13mm bolt head off bolt but top nut and remaining thread one still frozen on frame?

You ever get this resolved?

No part number offhand. But they're the 2nd gen Raptor stops. You should be able to get them at any Dord parts counter.

My bolts came out Ok but many folks break theirs.
