Stock rear bump stop replacement |
I'm not running anything on the front right now (bumper, winch, etc) so decided to see what these do on the rear since I tow.
I figure if nothing else might be a good failsafe if I lose a bag at a bad time... and could resell at a discount as version is used on many different Toyota models including the Sequoia |
Thanks for posting this. I've got the Timbren's as part of my suspension list and these videos just go to prove the capability of the product.
|
Looks like they arrived while I was out of town. Might install next weekend with oil change and zerk session. I don't plan to do a lift on mine anytime soon but in case the Budbuilt weigh down the front too much I might put the front ones on. We'll see.... might be unnecessary.
|
I'm considering a rear set because I tow about once a month. They seem a little pricey for what they are but they have good reviews on the website.
|
Just an FYI. They come disassembled in the box.
http://timbren.com/blog/products-page/torseq/ Install Instructions from box http://timbren.wpengine.netdna-cdn.c.../09/TORSEQ.pdf Not seeing any bolt torque specs. I need to look into FSM and also see if Timbren has a recommendation for at least the center bolt. |
Here is someone with a '11 460 with them installed

good stuff, what's the cost ?
|
Not cheap but they do have a lifetime warranty. I think once I know how real world they work I can say more. Some of this is a personal experiment. Multiple vendors out there so someone may find a cheaper option. Etrailer info below for 10-19
Rears are $214.67 + sales tax if your state has that [Front] https://www.etrailer.com/Vehicle-Sus...id=20181013613 [Rear] https://www.etrailer.com/Vehicle-Sus...id=20181013627 |
This may sound crazy but I’m wondering if these will fix my “slight” lean issue. According to Lexus only 10mm (20mm is out of spec), but once I saw it lean once I can’t unsee it. Do they always support the axle or are they clear when there is no pressure from a trailer? |
I believe front has contact all the time and rear there is some space while level.

Inside the Timbren there is a washer already present. Last night put together and lots of play with a washer that would be ringing all the time as it doesn't tighten down. I sent this video to Timbren and they first claimed not tightened enough and then a few minutes later a support message that it was normal. Saw others post they had to put additional washers in it. Doesn't feel right with the current slop. I suppose one could use a tap and die to force the threads further in as there is room inside the metal assembly at top. As-is won't thread on either one into the hollow space at the top.
