Anybody have the SumoSprings?

This is probably a dumb question but do you think these could work on a truck with 2 inch drop springs out back? If it's solid rubber maybe they could be trimmed down?

You can trim them, because sometimes people cut them into a slant / 45 degree angle so they are more progressive with loads

Sumosprings actually told me they can be trimmed (flat or at an angle to give it some progressiveness) but that it would void the warranty on them. Low risk at $300.

I actually just did a set of the icon's, and they ride as good or better than stock, and they carry more weight..really happy with them.

Just to close this out, I reinstalled the modified sumospring perch and found that the universal energy suspension bumps I listed above work perfectly mounted upside down to the existing hole in the axle pad. When the sumospring is threaded off, the ES bump will contact the sumospring perch. When the SS is installed, it will take the whole load. Now takes about 1 min and no tools to prevent rear sag when hauling and doesn't impact my articulation at all when not installed.

Thanks for posting this, I may do this exact thing to mine. I have a '21 Rebel and installed the sumos's but would like a way to quickly remove them because of the harsher ride. This solution will be perfect for my needs, just screw them on for towing/hauling heavy and remove for daily driving and off road.

Have you ran into any issues with this solution after some use? I imagine a filter wrench or large channel locks can be used to tighten or remove them?
