We do not have a rear SpeedBump application for lifts lower than a full rear 3” lift. We will have a special rear bump stop that replaces the upper factory unit with a closed micro cellular unit in the future.
I think I get it... The SpeedBumps in the front replace the factory foam, and when the SpeedBumps are fully compressed, they're the same length as the OEM foam assembly - right? So this means we keep whatever bumpstop extension blocks we have in the front.

For the rears, you replace the extension block, not the factory foam - right? So, in this case, I guess my question would be: What's the height of the rear SpeedBumps when fully compressed?

Thanks,
js.

From this picture you can see the compressed distance is the same with or without the SpeedBump.




I hope this helps.

The SpeedBump uses the OEM bump stop in addition to the stroke (1.75") from the SpeedBump. The rear application completely compresses at 5,000lbs. The rear is designed for lifts with at least 3 full added inches in the rear. The picture shown is on a 4" lifted JK with a TeraFlex lift.



This shows the front SpeedBump with a 4" Lift

If you are already using a bump stop in the front, this picture shows a simple way to maximize them for use with the SpeedBumps. It is important to have a good flat surface for the SpeedBumps to contact.

Can someone compare these to airbumps. Are there any disadvantages to using these?

x2.
Looking for a good bump stop system to go with 3-4" lift and fox-resv shocks for high speed desert running.
