Do bumpstops need to be cut for 2" drop?
Do bumpstops need to be cut for 2" drop?
I am going to drop the front of my truck tomorrow with a set of belltech 2" drop coils and was wondering if the front bumpstops would need to be cut or just left full. I am also going to be running the stock billsteins if that matters. Thanks in advance.
I used Ground Force springs and they came with new stops. I didn't notice they were in the box, so I initially didn't put them on. When I went back to put the new stops on, I noticed the stock ones were rubbing very much. Bottom line = yes, you either need new stops or cut the old ones. As far as I can remember, there was approximately 1/2 inch difference between the two.
Must cut or else they'll look like this.
The coils were Eibach's but the drop was the same as you're doing.
Trimmed them like so then swapped them for a set from Roush.

thanks for your help guys. Are the Roush bump stops called the "Jounce Bumper Kit?" I'll probably just cut down the stock ones for now and probably replace for the roush ones later on. Thanks guys.
