I'd agree. Frame contact before shock fully compressed. I've run the daystar shock bumps a that slip over the end eye on my street CJ7. They seemed to work fairly well on and offroad. They were fairly soft compound. My guess is multiple hard Impacts and they will be getting replaced every race. Can't remember if they offered a harder compound.
I planned to give these bumps a try. They fit the rules and my guess was that a poly bump would hold up better when it's contained within a cylinder.

Have to look closer t the truck when I can dig it out of the snow sliding off my shop roof. :(

i doubt those will be allowed


Mike dont for get you can put any size shock, probably a 12 or 14 on something that travels 8" at most.... not like 1/8" tolerances need to be in to play...

Rules say rubber or poly bumpstops allowed.
It's not air or hydro it's some sort of rubber /poly contained within a tube with a extension shaft. Sounds legal to me.

Agreed clarification would make sense before spending the time and $. I just don't consider it a secondary suspension. It's a bumpstop.

Yea it is but breaking suspension parts gets expensive too.
Still in planning stages.
I don't even have a cage yet.
Speaking of cage. I need to get some more tube over here! ;)

Mine are cast.

cast into at least the lead beam is something like "do not weld cut drill this part"
