Anybody ran the daystar bumps

[30th6]

Looking into putting bumps on my buggy I bought some poly bumps but seen these an was wondering if anyone Had ran them?
The price of just the budget bump shaft is $25 and these bumps are only $109.
They look like they may be worth a try, i can't afford air bumps so it's either poly or these.

I ran the daystar stingers several years ago. I would not run them again, the bump material basically destroys itself and then the bump post themselves become a bit cockeyed, then you have to replace the bump material and start over again.

Buy the cans. Mount them and the. Run a piece of tube with a small rubber stop on the end. Then when money or a deal pops up, take out the tube and put in air bumps.

I thought the same thing about the stinger bumps so I bought and tried a set, after one weekend of hard wheeling both shafts were stuck up in the can, I tool em apart and the shaft had stabbed through the foam balls and had no rebound left, I rebuilt them with bigger washers inside so they wouldn't do that again and replaced them with fox air bumps and tossed these on the shelf for a crawler project or something , definatly not rock bouncer approved !

Destroyed mine first ride out . The poly pucks in side just did not stand up to any abuse.

Worst things I have ever ran. They have never worked well. Was patient with them and tried every combination of soft/hard evs foam inserts and either too soft and just collapse and bottom out in the can or too hard and deflect the shaft inside the can. I'll be ordering Profender air bumps after my New Years trip to harlan.
