About this product
A rear bump stop kit built exclusively for the FMI Gen 1 to Gen 3 5-link conversion on 2010–2014 Raptor and 2009–2014 F-150 frames. It is engineered to line up with the suspension cycle of the 5-link system.
A truck converted to a 5-link rear needs bump stops placed for how that axle travels. This kit puts the bump stop and the axle bump plate in line with the converted suspension, to soften big hits and keep the rear stable and controlled.
What Is In The Kit
- Bump stop mounts, 100% MIG welded and finished in hammer black textured powder coat
- Axle bump plates
- Hardware and everything needed for the install
- Your choice of bump stop: Fox or ADS. Selecting a brand includes that hydraulic bump stop with the kit. None is the mounts only, for supplying your own bump stop.
Why A Rear Bump Stop
A bump stop is the last thing that slows the axle before the suspension runs out of travel. Without a good one, a big hit ends with metal meeting the frame or the shock bottoming internally.
A hydraulic bump stop takes that energy progressively at the end of the suspension's travel instead of all at once. The result is that big bumps feel softer, the parts are protected from damage on hard hits, and the rear suspension stays stable and controlled.
Fitment
For 2010–2014 Gen 1 Raptor and 2009–2014 F-150 frames that have been converted with the FMI Gen 1 to Gen 3 5-link conversion kit.
This kit only works with the Gen 1 to Gen 3 5-link conversion kit. It will not work on conventional Gen 1 trucks with leaf springs.
The mounts work with Fox, King, ADS and Carbon bump stops.
