    Hi Everyone!
    I am a new member to "Tacoma World" and looking forward to all the great knowledge and experience of its members.
    I have a 2013 Tacoma SR6 Crew Cab and am considering intalling the Timbren SES upgrades to enhance my load carrying and towing capabilities. (typical loads include and ATV or snowmachine)
    Does anyone have any experience with the Timbren products? Do you have any recommendations?
    Thanks, Dean

    I have used the Timbren on my 2013 SR5 and I did not like them. When there was nothing in the bed of the truck or on the hitch the truck road very hard. I removed the Timbren and installed Ride rite air backs and the OME leaf pack. I tow a 27' / 6000lb camper to this is ideal. and when I am not towing or hauling anything it still rides just as good. I just did not like the Timbren set up, too harsh of a ride

    Using Timbren bumpstops on the rear. Did the u-bolt flip since I was in there. Not much to report, it does what was advertised.

    This is not the kit the OP is asking about. You just have timbren bumpstops, not the SES kit they offer

    I installed the SES and will be removing them. With nothing in the bed they were fine. With my rack, they did not quite rest on the frame so every single bump in the road felt like I was bottoming out (I was on the SES bump stops). Pulling my travel trailer they were amazing. Unfortunately I do not pull it often so the everyday ride was just too harsh.
