Those look pretty cool. Do you know anyone with these? How do they work? How much?

They are just an air bump stop I think I got a price of like 700 or 750 for the kit. I would guess they would work good, I dont know anyone with them but I would like to have them and some for the fronts. It would be a nice thing to have but a little too much money. 700 would get you some kickin' shocks with an internal bump stop(or a closed bypass port)

I wonder if this is a case of the crumple zone being stressed too much on these trucks. The frame has built in "break" area on the front and rear of the frame designed to absorb impact during a crash. Remember the dozers crunching the 150 in the commercials? Once they are bent, I doubt that the frame will ever be the same. Good Luck, and sorry about your luck.

This is exactly why I always buy new instead of used.
