Rear Spring Bumbers and shocks - 10 EX

Ody-Boomer · Nov 16, 2023

I noticed that my spring bumpers we all dry rotted and torn like others have showing on here so decided to replace them with the Timbrens that were mentioned on here. I couldn't find OEM. I also noticed that the rear shocks were leaking so decided to replace those as well. Decided to keep the springs because I was reading they could last a long time and they are expensive. So far so good, I can't really tell any difference, the van rides smooth like it always has. All the parts used are below and the total cost was around $700.

nice, how hard was this job. Mine bumpers are starting to look bad.

It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. The main part that concerned me was lowering and then raising the spring because that can be dangerous obviously. I took my time and was careful and deliberate. When raising the spring to re-connect it, I remember it being somewhat difficult to align the lower control arm to get the bolt back in to the knuckle so I would recommend to have at least two floor jacks, one small one to help make the minor alignment adjustments.

If you need other things, then yes, replace the bumpers, otherwise, the bumpers just 'bump' when the rear suspension bottoms out, which may not happen very often if your van is not heavily loaded.
