- After having the car for a few years, it's time to make a couple of tweaks that I have been considering for a long time. I have been running Superior's entire catalogue throughout the rest of the car. Including their Hyperflex Arms, Rear UCA's, Panhards, Steering Arms, Extended Shock Towers, & Coil Retention. Last fortnight we installed their LONG ARMS & now it's time for the hydraulic bump stops! Then it's time to JUMP..

By far has become my favorite RUclips channel killer content full of actual helpful knowledge an great tracks and trips keep it up Timmy
Nice!! That’s awesome to hear thanks for watching!! 🤙🏻🤙🏻
Bro, I love watching people that just get shit done, and you're one of them!
Haha cheers dude, same here.. I can’t stand putting stuff off and piss farting around. Get in, get her done all day ✅🙌
awesome work Tim, those towers will handle what ever you put them through
Haha I hope so mate! They look bloody tough that’s for sure.. that’s the good thing about running them it’s never a bad idea to brace patrol coil towers
Great work again Tim getting better each episode on the camera
Haha thanks mate, takes a bit of getting used to 😅
Such a sick build. Always taking tips and ideas for my own. Videos are on point mate really enjoying them. Cheers legend
That’s awesome mate glad you’re enjoying it and taking some stuff from them, that’s the idea 🫡🔥
Sweet as mate. Enjoying all ur content. Urs has to be one of the best thought out n built GQ utes out there. 👍👍🏿🍻🎯
Hey mate, truly appreciate that 👊🏻 cheers for watching
Looks the goods mate. Have been looking at many bump setups for my wagon n this seems the go
Super easy procedure, easy to follow just do it on a hoist, would be a nightmare without one 👍🏻
Cool vid on the hydro bump stops install Tim👍
Cheers mate! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Awesome as bro .. awesome work u doing 🇦🇺🍺👍⚙️
Thanks mate glad you enjoy!
Good one Tim!
Cheers mate 🙏🏻
Love the content!!!!! I have a GQ and it’s inspiring me to do a lot of the same things you’ve done. Keep it up mate from VIC
Thanks so much for watching mate, appreciate it! Glad you’re enjoying 🙏🏻🙏🏻
thank you for sharing the video
Cheers for watching 🙏🏻
Definitely should do some rig rundowns with your mates buses🤘
Yeah I’d love to give a bit of a run through some of them are pretty amazing, but it’s honestly been done to death haha, if I can come up with a creative way of doing it maybe but yeah na not atm 👌🏻
Lookin Goood
Cheers fellas ❤️❤️❤️❤️👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
Looks great. What winch you running?
Cheers mate 🙏🏻 It’s a built Warn 8274 🤙🏻
Timmys gonna show tyler how its done again 😂
Dunno what that means haha, Tyler is a bloody good driver 👍🏻
Another great video Tim, one question mate and if I missed it by bad, did you drop the rig down to full compression in order to get an idea of the height of the hydro stops? I plan on putting a set of these all round on my S4 GU wagon. Like you I don't want the thing jacked into the air but low and flexy.
Yeah in a way, the instructions say to discharge the nitrogen out of them and drop it to closed length to get a gauge on full bump but I didn’t want to have to fill them back up. Luckily with these style bumps as opposed to rubber which don’t have an exact compressed length, these do because they’re a solid tube so you can know the closed length without discharging them, all I did was drop it until there was 85mm of shock shaft exposed, because the hydros are 75mm travel and so I want the bumps bottomed when there is 10mm shock left? I hope that makes sense, that gets them pretty dialled and then during my first trip with them I had cable ties on all 4 shocks and slowly wound them up until every cable tie was 10mm from the bottom. Even with jumping it and hitting stuff hard.
Hope that makes sense and hope it helps mate 👍🏻
Weld looks pretty flash to me mate, 40 years trade experience here 👍
Haha really? That makes me feel better, Drew has taught me a fair bit and with that knowledge I can use mine quite well but I struggle with these bigger 3 phase ones.
All this work and the truck is gonna need a respray
Screw that haha, would get pin striped again in 3 minutes flat 😅
@@timmyhasheart bush stripes over any art decals anyday
Have you added limit straps to this puppy? Looks mean and can't wait to see what the hyros and 2.5s go like
Hey mate na no limit straps, realistically I probably should, just to be on the safe side, and might some day but no not yet 🤙🏻🤙🏻 they go mint so far!
Good vid mate froth these build vids
Awesome dude glad to hear, there will be plenty of them I can’t stop fiddling with it 😅
Great job! Q, was this done before or after your trip with Tyler?
Ahh so half and half, Tyler came down earlier in the year and we did the west coast, then I did all of this work, then he came back down at Easter and did the east coast 🙏🏻
Do you find them much harsher since you say you are currently bouncing off the bumps with your setup?
I am constantly on mine too, mainly due to 150lb/in front coils and 'comfort valved' ironman shocks. I put dobinson hydros in mine knowing I would be hitting the bumps more often but really wish I didn't. They are bloody noisy and really feel them through the floor of the car.
Ahhh to start with I had them set to low, and so I felt them tapping the diff frequently however I wouldn’t say it’s harsh I just felt the Teflon tapping the diff, but I’ve got them a lot more dialled now and I’m not on them unless I need to be..
Put some cable ties on your shock shafts and hit some stuff real hard to see how much shock travel you have left, I kept adjusting mine until the cable tie stopped 10mm from the end of the shock. If you reach out on Insta I can help you dial them in a bit.
But I mean, if you really can’t stand them go back to rubber? They’re not for everyone for sure
@@timmyhasheart
Sorry I don't have insta or bookface.
Pretty sure I've got them setup as high as possible before the shock bottoms out. At full bump they are pretty much at factory bump height.
Other than changing shocks and or coils the only thing I could possibly do is pull the bump apart and machine a spacer so they have less travel.
Also the dobinsons bumps have a rubber as well as the nylon ends. And they are still pretty clunky.
Also they are fully welded in so going back to rubber bumps will need to machine something to thread into the sleeves that I can bolt a bump stop to.
How much gap do you have from striker pad to bottom of bump at ride height? I have a little over 100mm
Yeah probably about 100-125 at ride height with 12” travel shocks, and yeah wouldn’t be hard to get an aluminium boss turned up in the lathe to receive a factory rubber bump in the bottom, but I mean yeah I dunno I rate em so far, only done a few jumps and seems to handle well.
And yeah could pull them apart and add a spacer for sure.
@@timmyhasheart
Any idea what what spring rate and free height your coils are? And how much did you raise the shock towers?
Mine are 150lb/in with a free height of 515mm. Shocks are only 10" travel, (ironmans 6") and raised towers 25mm. The coils stay seated at full droop.
I also made a swaybar from a torsion bar (I think it was a Ford courier) for about $100. Works a treat and super easy to disconnect for offroad.
Also running the superflex rear swaybar, but clamped some brackets at the factory location along the swaybar arm so it is as stiff as a whiteline 24mm bar or just move the links to the end and get full flex out of it.
Not poo, pooing your content but I'm sure I'm not the only one hungry for some 'out of the box' ideas rather than throwing the superior catalogue at their patrols.
Na not at all no offence taken dude I get what you’re saying, but I’ve bought superior in the past because it’s always been a dream of mine to have full superior, I dunno why there is this innate need to go custom when someone smarter than us has done it better, not to mention my suspension wouldn’t be engineered if it was anything but superior, my engineer went tick tick tick because all of the approvals were there.. I work hard, earn money, spend it where I see fit.
I dunno the coil rates off the top of my head sorry dude all I know is it’s sitting at about 70mm. Shocks are 7” all round which equates to 12” travel front and 13” travel rear. Front shock towers are well and truly into the engine bay I could only just just fit them in before, since the hydro plate on top I had to cut more out though.
There is lots of people out there doing fully custom suspension, and so if this sorta stuff isn’t for you that’s all g I can tell you a couple channels that do great custom stuff but in Tasmania I can only legally put in gear that’s been through the VSB14 testing, and even that aside, I rate the superior stuff and have dreamed of having superior gear under a solid axle car even back when I had a Navara, and the factory Nissan geometry works just fine to the degree I can get to both ends of a 13” travel shock so I haven’t had a need to go custom.
Who ties there hoodie strings together
Mate go learn then come keep up
en el minuto 3.33. que tipo de spray usa?
It’s just a cutting fluid mate 👍🏻👍🏻
@@timmyhasheart pero luego puede soldar encima como si nada?
Editing has come on leaps. You getting some help? Really good video mate.
Haha I wish!! Na mate still all me I’m just learning and experimenting and stealing as many ideas as possible from people that edit their videos better than me. 😂 Mostly drawing inspiration from TJ & Sam Young’s video editing tbh. Thanks heaps mate 🙏🏻
Whats ya playlist on spotyfly
Ahhhh dunno aye ahaha
WHere do i buy a shirt with your name on it. Some stickers and stuff
Na no stickers or merch mate, appreciate it but yeah not doing any atm 👍🏻👍🏻
@@timmyhasheart bye far best channel on here. Actually helpful info and xlear to understand and real word expeiances.
Don’t show Tyler “ he’ll get jealous and want you to put all the same gear in his 🤠
Hahaha wouldn’t be the first time, that flog is always copying me hey ;)
@@timmyhasheart 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Where do u get those brake lines
They’re superior engineering extended braided brake lines mate 🫡
