Feel your pain, having my mechanic put on the new coil springs and shocks, will have them drill holes in the front metal pads so I can put on bump stop extensions myself, going to countersink a few hockey pucks and bolt them in. The rear Bump Stop extension holes are already drilled which I can't figure out why they didn't do that to the front of JK's
great video i always like it when you see how hard it is to do some of these upgrades, some of these channels with video editing make it look too easy. thanks for keeping it real! looking to pick up these bumpstops for my jku hoping you could tell me if they are still great in cold weather? I've seen a few reviews that say they can be just as hard as stock bumpstocks in winter thanks and just gave you a sub.
Thanks for the sub! I can't speak to their effectiveness in cold weather - I haven't pushed the jeep hard enough during cold winter months to tell you how they feel. I took the recommendation from @autoedit and he's right - they're great for the money.
Hi, I noticed on your jeep you have what looks like a black fender flare extension? Is that something you added or is it just the plastic inner fender?
@@jamesgoss5620 it's a 3.5" Rubicon Express lift - wish I'd gone for something a little more complete with adjustable control arms etc but it's what I could afford at the time.
In your opinion does the bottoming out aspect seem to be more of an issue in the front as compared to the rear? I was thinking about putting hydraulic bumps just in the front because it’s so easy to do and keep the metal clocks for the rear
Should be pretty even imo, at least on a tj. Hydraulic bumps are badass though and if you don’t mind spending the money you should go for it. That’s being said I’ve got fox remote reservoirs and metalcloak bumps on my tj and it’ll do 50mph through medium sized whoops and take small jumps very comfortably
They don't change up-travel. They are really stiff compared to the stock ones but still really squishy relative to a 5000 lb vehicle bouncing up and down.
That's a well-known little mud hole in Richmond BC called Triangle Beach. From Westminister Hwy, South on No. 6 Road, East on Triangle Road approx. 1 Km, past the Richmond Ice Centre, to the end, curve to the left and then right, becomes "Williams Rd", at the end of that (almost at the water) is a dirt ramp to the left that takes you past some construction and a wide-open dirt area. On the left is a long dirt berm that is supposed to close off the open field of dirt but people just drive over it. There are various Motocross trails in there...you'll see a container yard for shipping containers, but that's the far boundary. it's constantly changing as there is construction going on, and no one is sure how long it will still be accessible.

Great Video! I really struggled with getting the Rear Bump Stops installed, but finally got it! This is a must-have upgrade for sure!
Good one! Can't wait for the next episode!
That looks like a super high-value mod.

Great video. I’m about to install mine.
Thanks Jason - Please subscribe! The channel is tiny right now but growing...
Did you get them installed? What do you think?
I got the back on. I ordered those spring compressors I’m waiting for them to come in

Wondering since you have he'd the bump stops awhile now what do think?
Still good!
Forgot 2 ask is your jeep lifted, if so how much?

just found your channel looking to channel my rotted out bump stops. 0llllll0 Thumbs up
Looks like Dad scared her a bit.. she may not want to go with you next time lol
Yeah...but she's a trooper. She's handled much more fun since...thankfully no trauma so far. The point is to make good memories, not scary ones.

@@robp418 sound like a cool set up. Thanks for info
Good work, but - uh...slow down! ( Listen to Ani.)
Do you happen to know if they changed the amount of up travel you had?
They don't change up-travel. They are really stiff compared to the stock ones but still really squishy relative to a 5000 lb vehicle bouncing up and down.
Hi I like your videos I am from North Vancouver, could you tell me where is the place where your testing jeep right on the end of the video, thanks.

@@Spiritual4x4 yes I know they slowly taking everything from as, I had a place under the Lions Gate bridge and it's gone now because of construction.
👍Is there anything else you don't know how to do
Learn by doing.. new concept
Painful to watch.
Put the jack on the opposite side of the spring youre taking out...
