I run without out a front swaybar on my PRO. The Sumo bump stop took all the dangerous sway on the street out so i can run without out it with confidence.
@AllTerrainFamily7 ай бұрын
Hmm I wonder which is better. My gut says the sway bar is safer in road and the sumo springs limit travel off road. How do you like that off road?
@robertyoung82897 ай бұрын
@@AllTerrainFamily I honestly haven't noticed any real lack of travel off road. I tend to seek out moderate trails. The front removal of the sway bar is a definite upgrade and I literally notice no more concerning sway since installing the Sumo's. Give it a try and let us know what you think. Thanks for the video.

Why did you go with yellow rather than blue? Do you carry real heavy loads? My payload on my TRD off-road manual transmission is 945lb 🦴 stock suspension cuz I don't go off-road a lot I put blue sumo springs on the rear I just want to get them on the front it feels much more hunkered down when I go over large bumps it used to bounce all around before there's only about 1/2" between the spring & the frame rail so I must be using them quite a bit.

I can't speak to a lifted application, but I loved the Sumo springs on the stock "TRD Off Road" suspension. The stock tacoma is pretty softly sprung, it doesn't take much weight in the back (200 - 300 lbs) to bottom out the suspension on highway dips at speed. The sumo's really soften the hit and slow down the compression. I recently replaced my '17 with a '23 and will be installing the Sumo's again in the coming weeks. But I certainly understand your point that with the BP's, you're probably not seeing the same benefit as a stock suspension would.

Hey Mike, so glad you love your SumoSprings! We really believe they are the best option out there for everyday use and when loaded up! Wow, what a great video! Love how in-depth you went on each stop and the advantages of each. Looking forward to following more of your journey!

The Timbren or Sumo are HELPER springs designed for load assist keep vehicle properly balanced under load. The factory bump stop is actually an overload stop. However a trade off is always made loading carrying anti sway proper balance or total flex of travel. Only the user can answer that to his needs. Honestly not complicated if your not running close to 75% payload/haul capacity they have no need to change as the loss in suspension travel is lost in off road. However if you tow/haul and rear has negative squat (rear end sits lower than front then they are needed to restore handling and heavy load comfort. So do you need them? Maybe or maybe not. If you don’t need but want to spend money anyway sure.

I ran the 1000# sumosprings on my tsb springs for 8years. They did the job but I recently did a 3 leaf progressive add a leaf and changed to old man Emu shocks vs my old bilstein 5100 and removed the sumosprings. If I need more capacity I will go to the 500# sumospring. The 1000# set contacted all the time and in hindsight was very harsh. Much happier with the add a leaf. Fwiw
@AllTerrainFamily5 ай бұрын
I agree that adding actual spring is the way to go. These are ok as a temporary or occasional use solution.
@joealves50702 ай бұрын
I have both timbren and sumo springs.. timbrens on my 1500 are definitely stiffer and handle more overload applications, 4 sumos on my 36' camper to help with the sway and bumpy ride. The stiffer they are they more they handle the load, sumo compresses a lot compared to timbren so it can be a softer ride. Both of these have made it possible to tow such a large camper with a 1500 but your truck will take a beating even with all this tech. 1500 just not made for the application i was putting it through , upgraded to a 2500..

To bad you didn't have some Duro Bumps to test out, I have used the Wheelers Bump Stops, the Sumo Bump Stops and my favorite are the Duro Bumps so far, they seem to really help on full compression in both higher speed woops, hard pack, soft sand, crawling on the trails and when mall crawling those speed bumps.

@@damonphalin6023 Ideally, a full leaf spring pack that is correctly rated for the weight you carry. Add a Leaf is the next best option. Sumo springs are an OK option if you don't go off road. But the add a leaf is about the same price, but a little harder to install.
