They have ones that are rated for a 1,000 lbs specific to the Raptor.


SSR-116-40 | SumoSprings Rear for Ford F-150, Ford F-150 Raptor
$239.99

  • Sold as a pair (left and right)
  • Maintenance-free
  • Enhances load carrying ability
  • 1000 (lb) Capacity at 50% Compression
  • Reduces and stabilizes sway
  • Improves overall driver control and ride comfort
  • Compress up to 80% of original height with full memory rebound
  • One-piece unit attached on one side used as a replacement/upgrade to factory bump stops
  • progressive spring rate with superior damping properties
  • Made from patented micro-cellular urethane
  • Will not leak or rupture
  • Never load any vehicle beyond the manufacturer’s GVWR
So I figured the 1,500 would work also.

I am leaning towards the HD Deaver's.

was just looking at these. This is awesome and a great low cost alternative while I recover from the stage one lift.

So are the below posted Sumo Springs poor choice.

I want to add Deaver's in the rear and either Eibachs or Geisers up front and wish to off-road and get setup for overlanding.

Might be pulling a light built for off-road camper set up for overlanding but the truck would still be loaded with as much as I could get away with weight wise.

I don't know if I really need the higher quality bump stops, not because of cost, but because I don't really see me doing any high speed desert or Baja runs. Maybe a little high speed dirt runs.

Any input appreciated, thanks.

going with the deavers, or ICONS like I have Remove the block from the rear axle. This gets rid of the bump stop perch and means you have an extra 2 inches. Probably better to go with the Regular F150 ones because they are longer.

If you have Deavers or Icons installed in the rear and simply want to replace the now useless stock bump stop with something that will work, you might want consider something like this. Is it going to take you ripping offroad in the desert? Maybe not. Is it going to take you over landing or trail riding…sure. Depending upon your lift from the upgraded rear leaf spring, you may want to add a spacer (which they sell if you tell them how much lift you added) . Other than using the Forged-Offroad bump pads with the stock bump stock, this seems to be a reasonable and inexpensive solution. A few local friends use these and Timbren’s similar solution on F150 FX4’s. All prefer these as “less intrusive on the ride” and very effective.
