In spite of what a lot of people seem to think, the whole point of installing bump stop extensions isn’t necessarily to help prevent your tires from rubbing your fenders at a full flex. I mean, sure, they’ll do that too but that’s not the main reason why you should want them. The main reason is to help prevent things like your shocks from bottoming out and maybe more importantly, to help prevent the over compression of your coils. As in, compressing them to the point where they no longer return to their original height. It’s for this reason that most lift kits come with bump stop extensions that are about the same height as the lift you’re installing.

Now, where things get tricky is when you want to upgrade your coils to something a bit taller but without having to install a whole new lift kit. Because most lift coils tend to yield way more lift than is advertised, this can make it hard to know just how much of a bump stop extension you really need. Of course, if you've just installed a bigger set of tires and would like to mitigate the rubbing you're now getting from them, a taller set of bump stop extension can be helpful there as well. Fortunately, Synergy came up with their all new Snap-Lock Bump Stop Spacer System.

Thank you for showing these Eddie and Cindy. I’ve actually recently been looking at getting these I like that you can add or subtract as needed. Your video has me hooked now.

Ok, now that's pretty slick! I'm gonna have to order these when I decide on my lift later this Summer. :thumb:
 
So many people overlook bump stops and even more so, rarely take the time to fine tune everything so they are getting exactly what they need out of their suspension. Cool that synergy makes it easier to figure out and adjust.

They make a lot of sense to get your Jeep dialed in. Is there a version for the rear stops too?

LOL - glad we could be of help :)

Awesome :cool:

Those are pretty clever might have to get me a set. Can you put on rear as well?

So, these are supposed to be universal and you should be able to install them on the rear as well. On the rear, you're supposed to drill through the flat bump stop plate on the axle. The only problem is that if you drilled right through the center of the plate, you'd be drilling right into the axle tube. Of course, the rubber jounce doesn't really strike dead center so I suppose it would just take some figuring out where to put them. I'm not gonna lie, I wasn't really feeling it and really, addressing the rear isn't nearly as tough as the front being that the bump stops are outside of the coil. You can pretty much install these or anything without having to remove anything on your Jeep.

Very cool. Somehow I didn’t know these existed. I might have to snatch me up a set

LOL!! Glad we were able to show you something new :)

Honestly, I just think that most people don't know what to look for or know that things need to be dialed in. And then, they later complain about how their lift no longer sits as tall as it used to and wonder why.

What a great idea.

I think so :)

LOL!! I know, right? :crazyeyes:

You're up to something.... :hmm:

That’s a great idea!

I think so too :)

According to the Synergy site, they can be used front or rear.

Yup. :yup:

That makes sense, and there is a bunch more access there.

Thanks for the insight
