When I installed the durobumps bumpstops, it was literally night and day difference.
Interesting... I had read about it but I'm not sure if that is my case. What springs are you running? Do you have adjusters? Those might be a happy medium vs the King Bumpstops which are another investment in themselves LOL.

Thanks for the feedback.
Most of us will never need hydraulic bump stops. Expensive and another install rabbit hole. The Durobumps or the Wheelers Bumps which I have been very happy with, will do just fine for most applications.
Here is some video of the abuse I put them through.

yeah, the King's hydrobumps would be overkill for me with my current set up. But I am very happy with Duro's.
Thats pretty impressive... I might just might the bullet... never thought bumpstops would be so important in the setup.
Getting the rig checked out right now, I have some rubbing issues on the inside of the wheel, going to get camber checked out tomorrow.See pic: *BFG KO2s in 265/70R17.
Also, looking into ways to prolong the life of the UCAs, definitely feel like buying the Camburg Uniballs was not the ideal. Should have done a bit more research. I filled them up with thick grease but with some use, it evidently becomes uncovered... looking into a way to change them to balljoints or get them covered somehow. Any suggestions are welcome!

Can you take another photo of higher up near the UCA? It definitely looks like it’s running on something
Shop just sent me a couple pics. Not the best but here they go!
Anyone have any tips as to how to save the ubiballs on the UCAs? Can I swap them out for any other sort of system without having to exchange everything?

I recommend spidertrax spacers or new set of wheels with different offset.

The rub mark seems to line up with the UCA. Don’t they sell dust covers for the top of the UCA for the Camburgs?
Apparently it does line up with the UCA, so Im looking into spacers... I'm wondering why with the stock UCAs and the same tires I didnt get that effect. Does everyone have to run spacers with aftermarket UCAs?
They don't sell the dust covers for the uniball Camburgs, I've read quite a bit and it seems like its not even a good idea if they did sell them.

Yeah, same thing happened to me. Either spacers with stock wheels or new wheels with different offset.

You can buy a set of spidertrax spacers if you can’t do wheels right away. Keep an eye on the classifieds here and at tacomaworld for a used set.
For the uniball as long as you keep them greased should be fine. I think the recommendation on these is triflow every oil change or so, or when they start squeaking.
I bought the Durabumps and am patiently waiting for their arrival (there's a longer than normal lead time).
Also, I think I figured out what was rubbing in the previous pic. Unfortunately it was the tube that connects the ext reservoir to the shock. There is some wear and clearly I want to work on replacing that. See pic below:
Any suggestions as to how to proceed on replacing that?
With that pic, I think I realized the front springs are 550... you can sort of tell on the pic, right? Also, does anyone have any experience in adding the adjusters to the remote reservoirs on these king shocks? I bought the rears with no adjustments as the lead time was crazy and these were in stock.
What tire pressure are you running? That may be effecting the comfort. For some reason, shops will air you way up since it's E rated tire on a "light" SUV.
I found this formla on another forum and seems to work well:
GVW (4th gen is ~5580) / 4 (4 tires) = 1395
1395 (from the above) / Max load of tire (3195 for your E load KO2) = 44% rounded
44% * Max PSI of tire (80) = 35 PSI
Personally, I like to go down a few PSI to adjust for some comfort.

I believe ICON's Delta Joint is a replacement for these uniballs. I am looking at doing the same with my Camburgs on my Tundra. They are sealed and greasable. See link.
As far as what to use for the Uniballs as mentioned prior you can use triflow or you can use CRC PTFE Lubricant. The latter is what I use and you just spray a bunch of it on the top of the ball and let it soak in. Here is a link.
