ABSTOF Timbren Active Off-Road Bump Stops - Front Suspension - 1,800 lbs



Timbren's Active Off-Road Bumpstops provide off-road enthusiasts with greater control over their vehicle's suspension travel. Using progressive-rate springs means that instead of a hard stop at the end of axle travel, the axle energy will be absorbed when bottoming out, producing smooth, predictable, and quiet axle engagement and disengagement. The progressive rubber springs absorb the harsh jolt at the end of axle travel, giving you a gentle ride the whole time.


Unlike your factory bumpstops, Timbren's bumpstops are constructed of a superior natural rubber compound, ensuring the bumpstops will continue to operate even after a lifetime of off-road abuse. And the steel brackets and disks are lazer cut before they are painted with a durable, long-lasting powder coat finish to ensure protection and long life.

Timbren Active Off-Road Bumpstops - Front Suspension - 1,800 lbs - TABSTOF

Average Customer Rating:  4.7 out of 5 stars   (111 Customer Reviews)

Disappointed in this item TABSTOF. They look and feel almost exactly like the factory bump stops, except with a hole drilled in the center. I can't imagine these would make much of any difference in rebound cushioning as there is just not much to them. There is another part which is more appropriate TOFTAC4A, which are larger and would actually have a benefit whether in a standard or lifted suspension.



by:

Easy install, work great.



by:

My 100 series 2001 Toyota Land cruiser uses four of these bump stops though the build quality of this product is excellent I am only giving it an average rating because 2 of the metal housing that the rubber sits in widens up at the bottom edge. I had to cut that edge back so that they would not scrape one on each side.

While towing my boat (2021 Tracker Pro Guide V-175/Mercury 115 ProXS, ~3,200lbs) in my 2021 Toyota 4Runner SR5 Premium, I noticed a significant rear squat. Additionally, fellow motorists would flag me for “high beaming” when I was not. This squatting in the rear raised the front end and subsequent headlight alignment. After much research and review, I purchased the Timbren SES and installed it. With the vehicle hitch unloaded, the SES rides approximately 1.250” above the rear axel. With the boat loaded onto the hitch, the Timbren SES contacts the axel and holds the load firmly, maintaining a level vehicle. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the ride was not greatly effected. Matter of fact, the vehicle rides much better while towing than before installing the SES. With the 3rd row seating in use, and the vehicle full of passengers, the rear passengers complained of a very bumpy ride and I noticed a very rough feel with hard bumps from the rear. After installing the Timbren SES, even with the boat on the hitch and the vehicle fully loaded, my 4Runner remains level and the ride is substantially improved. If you have 3rd row seating and/or plan on towing ANYTHING with your 4Runner, you absolutely need the Timbren SES. Installation is a breeze. Easiest accessory you’ll ever upgrade.



by:

Can't wait to pull my RV trailer again and see less squat in the backend of my Raptor!! These are going to make a difference.



by:

Ordered for my 2010 Toyota Tundra. Parts came quickly and had them installed in about 20 minutes. Just needed a good vehicle jack and impact wrench and was very easy. These have greatly reduced the sag when pulling my camper and very satisfied.



by:

Easy install, Nissan Xterra. Love that it came with all the hardware because I had to knock all existing hardware out with a hammer and chisel. I used four additional washers I had so I could put one inside the frame and one on the bumpstop mount. Etrailer shipped fast and free, bumpstops arrived ahead of schedule. Highly recommend these mounts, night and day difference.



by:

The factory bump stops were harsh. These engage sooner and while firm they do not crash like the OEM.
Easy install.



by:

Very easy to install, haven't traveled with trailer yet but will be traveling in April.



by:

These do what they're built to do. I overland a lot so when the truck gets weighed down with gear she tends to squat a little and when I go through bumpy areas the factory stops would slam the frame. No any more with these Active Bump Stops. A much smoother ride and less body roll when cornering.



by:

Well after used the Chat online with Carol I ordered. Paid for 2 day shipping. Got it in 2 days.

Total install time 1 hour.



by:

They seem to perform just fine, absorbing bumps and impacts etc. However they collect water like little buckets and the bolts are clearly corroding on the inside of the bumpstops since they have no drainage. Adding a way for water to escape faster than evaporation would be a good improvement to the product!



by:

They work well towing a heavey trailer.



by:

My 2013 4runner was squatting in the rear when I coupled my 6X12 motorcycle trailer. I was very happy to have found the Timbren bump stop to simply bolt on and fix the problem. However.....during the installation I noticed I had to use ALL of the adjustment slot on the unit to TRY to center on the rear axle. I oriented the units as far towards the rear as the adjustment would allow.
When I coupled my trailer to the 4runner it correctly forced the Timbren bump stop to contact the axle and this is where the problem is.
The Timbren bump stop CAN NOT be adjusted far enough towards the rear to accomplish a centering on the axle. There is a 25% overhang of the bump stop on the axle front. When I communicated with Timbren about this they said" it's a good installation and it's ok". It is not ok.
Imagine that all of the force of a fully loaded truck will be negotiating curves, potholes, swoops and other hazards of the road at highway speeds. All of this stress is distributed on 75% of the product. It can't work as well as if it was 100% distribution. I felt the product was overpriced to begin with. After paying a premium price I expected a custom proper fit.
I can't recommend this product for Toyota 4runner owners.



by:

I had these on my Tacoma and liked the way they worked so much that I got a set for my new to me Tundra. You don't notice anything until you put a load on the truck. Then you feel more stable under load and don't have to worry as much about the leaf springs. The install was done in 15 minutes



by:

easy to install - might want to let installers know you don't need to remove rear tires or jack the vehicle up (safety first!) on the Tundra. Just remove the 3 oem 12mm bolts on each side and replace the itty-bitty oem bump stops with your nice Timbren's (17mm bolt head and nut).



by:

Installation was a breeze! Followed the instructions and lifted the truck up using a jack under my hitch, loosened the u-bolts, removed the factory bump stops and installed the timbrens! Took 5 minutes for each side, and 5 minutes to setup and take down setup. 15 minutes max. Very easy to do. I believe I am going to need a 1” spacer as I have 1.5” Icon add-a-leaf packs in order to get them to engage while towing.



by:

Work great, save my air bags from getting pinched if I let them get deflated.



by:

I Install this product on the front and back of my 1994 toyota land cruiser ,I realy like them , we explore the Baja peninsula in MEXICO the off road land is very ruff , this bumpstop realy work . the don't crash in to my diferencial any more



by:

I have had Timbrens on several trucks! I always thought they worked great! I plan on putting these on a new Tacoma, which I will not yet until the end of September so I hope they fit! They are a very good product otherwise I would not use them!



by:

I have a medium-duty truck and recently purchased a camp trailer. Well, when I pulled the trailer home for the first time the back of the truck was weighed down. I installed the new Timbren Active Off-Road Bumpstops and they improved the load capacity immensely. When I get the cash saved up I plan on purchasing the Timbren Active Off-Road Bumpstops for the front. Worth every penny.



by:

I had no problems with the installation. It only took about 15 minutes to put these on! There is adjustment space on the brackets to let u be able to center product over rear axles. The pictures below show the product installed while my 4 runner is both raised up for installation and after lowering it down. When lowered down and jack removed I have about an inch clearance.



by:

Very effective upgrade and install wasn’t to bad either. Highly recommended! 2003 Toyota Tundra.

  • Cant Remove Factory Bump Stop on 2001 Toyota Tundra to Install Timbren Helper Springs
    Apparently this was a known issue because Timbren put a couple of notes in the instructions regarding the use of penetrating oil to remove the fasteners for the OEM hardware and, if the factory nut is damaged, to use the supplied fastener. This indicates that this is a common issue on these trucks. More than likely the OEM nut is damaged and doesn't necessarily require a special tool but will require cutting away the nut to remove the bump stop. If that is not something you are ready...

  • Recommended After-Market Front Bump Stops For Off-Roading In 2019 Toyota 4Runner
    There are front off-road bump stops available for the 2019 Toyota 4Runner with Timbren part # TABSTOF. The Timbren bump stops are progressive so when they engage you won't experience a hard stop. The bumpstops are constructed of a natural rubber compared to the OEM bump stops that are dense rubber that doesn't absorb road shock very well. They replace the OEM bump stops by threading into the existing hole once you remove the old stops.

  • How Many Sets Of Timbren Active Off-Road Bumpstops Are Needed For 2012 Toyota Tundra 4X4
    Per the attached installation instructions for the Timbren Active Off-Road Bumpstops, part # TABSTOF, only the rear bumpstop on each side is replaced. I called my contact at Timbren and they said after replacing the rear stops and you feel you want to add additional bumpstops on the front you can use the same part number for the front.

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement for a 2022 Toyota 4Runner
    For improved off-road, I suggest going with the Timbren Active Off-Road Bumpstops, # TABSTOF for the front and the Timbren Active Off-Road Bumpstops, # TABSTORSEQ for the rear. Using Timbren's Active Off-Road Bumpstops provides greater control over the vehicle's suspension travel. The progressive rubber springs absorb the harsh jolt at the end of axle travel.

  • Installation of Timbren Suspension Enhancement Springs on 2012 Toyota Tundra 4x4
    The Timbren Springs for your 2012 Toyota Tundra Crew Max 4x4 like # TABSOSR all install to the spring stack at the rear and not to the frame. The front mounted springs # TABSTOF do however mount to the frame. All of the rear suspension enhancement options from all our manufacturers mount to the leaf spring stack on your specific truck.

  • Front and Rear Suspension Support for 2020 Toyota Tundra
    For front suspension support for your 2020 Toyota Tundra we have the Timbren kit part # TABSTOF which would give more support up front while the # RAS34FR would work great out back.

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement for a 2020 Toyota 4Runner TRD
    I recommend using the Timbren jounce-style suspension enhancement for your 2020 Toyota 4Runner because it is a quick installation and once you're done there is absolutely no maintenance. Since no air has to be added these kits simply work when they are needed and you don't have to think about them. For standard use you need part # TTOFTAC4A for the front and part # TTORSEQ for the rear, but if you plan on going off-road you need part # TABSTOF for the front and part # TABSTORSEQ for the rear.

    The Expert Answer that you are referring to is for a 2012 Toyota Tundra 4x4. The 2012 Tundra has different rear bumpstops than your 2007 FJ Cruiser 4x4. The part # TABSTORSEQ that fits your Cruiser will not fit on the Tundra. Timbren offers a few different options for you to add some suspension enhancement for your Cruiser and it all depends on how you plan on using it.

  • Will Installing Timbren SES Affect Offroad Performance Of A 2024 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro
    Hey Carlos, Yes, installing the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System # T45MR will affect your ride quality and handling while off-roading in your Tundra. These springs provide a cushion between your frame and axle so that the harsh bumps over rough terrain won't throw you around. Timbrens are well known within the off-roading/overlanding community as the gold standard for suspension enhancement so you're making a solid choice. Timbren recommends a 1" gap between the axle and spring...

  • Comparing Timbren Suspension Enhancement for 2018 Toyota Tacoma
    There are six different Timbren kits for suspension enhancement that all fit your 2018 Toyota Tacoma. Four are for the rear and two are for the front. Of the front two, part # TTOFTUN4 is designed for adding support when you put a snow plow on the truck and # TABSTOF is an active bump stop that cushions the shock when off-roading. A couple of the rear kits are designed to support the rear of the truck when either towing a trailer or adding weight in the bed. Use part # TTORTUN4 if your...

  • Should Timbren Spacers or Off-Road Bumpstops be Used for a 2015 Toyota Tundra with 2-1/4" Lift
    The Timbren Spacers, like the 1" # A25723-90AH00 or 1/2" # TA25722-90P00, are designed to be used with a Timbren suspension enhancement system so you will not want to use them with your factory bumpstops. I spoke with my contact at Timbren about using the Timbren Active Off-Road Bumpstops # TABSTOF with the 2-1/4" lift on your 2015 Toyota Tundra and my contact said that no spacers will be needed when installing these. The Off-Road Bumpstops are rated for 1,800 lbs, but keep in mind that...
