This is new! Stop Cams? What do you think?

[scrap metal]

Bison Offroad just released their Stop Cam system which replaces all 4 of your lower control arm bolts and "locks" them into place.

We've been testing these for about a year now and we made a video that is hopefully informative. What do you guys think? I really thought it was a neat idea and I've had great results. Quick 5 min video is here Lift Insurance! Bison Offroad Stop Cam keeps your control arm aligned! - YouTube

*disclaimer- I do not sell these and I am not being paid by Bison Offroad to make a video. I am not even being paid for making any sales. I did however receive this kit for free as a test and prototype. If you think a retail of $50 is a "payment" incentive for making this post, it's not. Please consider the hours of editing, removals/ installs, etc.

I remember seeing these when I was looking at cam tab gussets. Was going to get them but eventually went with the Marlin LCA frame braces as I had already bent the lca brace. Definitely looks like a neat product though.

Wow, how did you end up bending the LCA brace? We plan on dropping the 4runner from various heights from our 20ton shop crane to do a Bilstein 5100 vs Fox 2.5 DSC comparison. Hopefully I don't bend mine hahaha.

A big rock, an empty brain, and a tad bit heavy foot lol. I learned my lesson in this first few weeks of 4runner ownership lol. Surprised I didn't damage more like the tie rods.

Yeah I've bent mine too and tie rods. I also tend to knock my front end out of alignment frequently. I was thinking of using these in combination with these cam stops in conjunction with the Marlin Crawler brace. Although I don't want to confuse the alignment guys (I hesitate to say tech) as I have been having a hard time finding a shop that can do a good alignment lately.

Oh yea I definitely think the cam stops would confuse the lesser alignment techs haha. Thankfully my local offroad shop is pretty darn good with alignments! Haven't knocked out an alignment yet since I installed the braces (last dec).
