3" Lift Rear Bump Stops – Toyota LandCruiser 80 Series
Prevent bottoming out, harsh axle contact and suspension damage on your lifted Toyota LandCruiser 80 Series (FZJ80/HDJ80/HZJ80/HDJ81 1990-1997) with these heavy-duty 3" extended rear bump stops from Machter Auto Parts. Designed specifically for 2–4" lift kits, they provide progressive compression and extra travel before axle hits frame – ideal for off-road builds, touring with heavy loads, bigger tyres or rough tracks where stock stops let the suspension slam through too early in Aussie conditions.
Key Features
- Sold as a pair (left + right rear bump stops) – complete ready-to-install set
- Extended 3" length – adds progressive cushioning for 2–4" lifts (check your exact lift height)
- High-density polyurethane construction – durable, UV-stable, won't crack or compress permanently
- Pre-drilled mounting holes – bolts to factory chassis locations or uses included hardware
- Progressive rate design – soft initial compression for comfort, firm up for big hits
- Corrosion-resistant – handles mud, salt spray, water crossings and heat
- Compatible with factory or aftermarket springs, shocks, long-travel kits and trailing arms
Benefits
- Prevents axle/frame contact – stops harsh bottoming out on big drops or whoops
- Protects suspension components – reduces damage to shocks, springs, trailing arms and diff
- Improved off-road control – allows more wheel travel before hard stop, better articulation
- Quieter & smoother ride – progressive damping absorbs big impacts without jarring
- Essential for lifted 80 Series – stock stops are too short for any serious lift
- Great for work rigs, rock crawling, desert running or touring – keeps your Cruiser protected

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need extended bump stops after a 3-inch suspension lift?
When you raise your LandCruiser by 3 inches, your suspension has significantly more upward travel. Without extended bump stops, the rear axle can travel too far upwards under heavy compression, which can lead to shock absorber "bottoming out" (causing internal damage) or your tyres scrubbing against the inner wheel arches and body panels.
Will these bump stops limit my off-road articulation?
These are specifically designed to strike the balance between protection and performance. While they do slightly reduce the maximum upward travel compared to stock, they prevent the more serious issue of over-compression. This ensures your shock absorbers and coil springs operate within their intended safe range, prolonging the life of your suspension components.
Is installation a bolt-on process?
Yes, these are designed to fit the factory mounting location on the 80 Series chassis. Depending on your specific model year and the condition of your factory mounts, it is a straightforward process of removing the old unit and bolting the new extended version into place. No complex welding or fabrication is required.
Can I use these with other lift heights?
These are optimized for 3-inch lifts. If you have a smaller lift (e.g., 2-inch), these may limit your travel more than necessary. If you have a larger lift, these may not provide enough protection to prevent bottoming out. We recommend matching your bump stop extension height closely to your suspension lift height for optimal performance.
Are there different versions for front and rear?
Yes. The front and rear suspension geometries of the 80 Series are different, and the bump stop mounting points are unique to each end. This product is specifically designed for the rear axle. Be sure to purchase the correct corresponding front kit if you are looking to protect both ends of your vehicle.
