Description
A weld-on front bump stop kit for the 2021–2026 Gen 3 Ford F-150 Raptor running the Foutz Motorsports Fabricated Lower Control Arm Kit. The bump stop can welds directly to the frame and works with the bump pad built into the FMI fabricated lower arm.
A bump stop takes the hardest hits at the end of the front suspension's compression stroke. This kit uses a 2.5" diameter, 2.5" stroke bump stop to give full compression protection and better ride quality in rough terrain.
What Is In The Kit
- Weld-on bump stop can, MIG welded in-house and shipped raw
- Your choice of 2.5" diameter, 2.5" stroke bump stop from FOX, King, ADS or Carbon, or the bump can only
The bump pad it contacts is part of the FMI Fabricated Lower Control Arm, not this kit.
Why A Front Bump Stop
When the front suspension hits full compression on a hard landing or a big whoop, something has to stop it. Without a proper bump stop, that final impact is taken by the shock and the suspension parts and passed straight into the chassis.
A bump stop is a short-stroke damper set at the end of the travel. In the last part of compression the lower arm's bump pad meets the bump stop, and the bump stop absorbs the hardest part of the hit progressively instead of letting the suspension crash into its limit. The result is reliable full compression protection and a truck that rides better when the terrain gets rough.
Mounting the can directly to the frame gives the bump stop a solid base for the loads it sees.
How It Is Built
The bump stop can is MIG welded in-house and mounts directly to the frame for strength and durability. It is designed to line up with the integrated bump pad on the Foutz Motorsports Fabricated Lower Control Arm.
The can ships raw, ready to be welded in.
