What is this Rubber Stop Part Called?

I have a 2007 4-Runner Limited, 6-cyl, 2WD. While replacing rear shocks recently I was taking a look around and noticed some wear/cracking in one of my spring bump stops (roundish cone things mounted inside the springs). But just to the outside of each spring is another rubber bump stop thing but trapezoidal in shape (it's the thing with the "H" on it):

Trapezoidal Bump Stock?

While I was able to locate a replacement for the cone-style bump stops, no sites nor additional internet searching seemed to have anything to offer on these trapezoidal ones. Anyone have an idea what they are called, specifically, or even better have a part number for one?

Toyota just calls it a "bumper"....."Bumper - Toyota (48306-60180)"

There's not a photo just a "drawing" image on the first link I posted it's a dealer's website so you can see the part number, they list it as the left side and don't have a listing for the right side, (do you have one on both sides?) but the second link...ebay link has a photo and it's cheaper as well (says it's the last one so act fast!!!), there it says RH/LH.

Wheelers Offroad makes "Superbumps", and Timbren makes a similar version.

I had done a bunch of research into both and determined that the Superbumps were the way to go... but I don't recall why that was, too long ago. I have the Superbumps, they work exactly as advertised. Note they are longer than the standard bumpstops, but they decelerate the axle on contact, not stop abruptly, shattering the occupants spines.
 
I've looked but could not find anything after market with respect to my original question/post. Can you point me to something specific?


I bought Superbumps from Wheeler’s. Great product, not so great customer service. I think the delay was due to Covid supply chain issues, and that’s fine; what I didn’t appreciate was their “next week” response every time I called. Just be straight about when to expect the items or say you don’t know.

Most aftermarket ones I’ve seen don’t look like the OEM part, which IIRC is curved to “fit” the axle. So just to be sure we’re talking about the same thing, the Superbumps are visible to the right of the shock in the top pictures. You can see the round “stamp” in the dust on the axle where they make contact. Bottom pic is a closeup.

Thanks, both. Odd that a search on a speficic Toyota bump stop part number didn't return hits for these products/website...bad marketing & SEO, I guess.

I was also surprised that while EnergySuspension did have an offering for the inside-coil-spring bump stop, they don't seem to for the trapezoidal one that was my original interest in OP.

But these after market alternatives should work for me if I decide ion a PU stop vs. OEM rubber types...so thanks again :--)
