do you have to cut the bumpstops?. i heard some people have cut them 1/3 or half off so the shocks have room to travel so it's not bouncy.

i get off work when skunk2 closes so i cant really call them.

 

i just installed front skunk 2 coilovers and I cut the bump stop in half. Doing the back soon. Will let you know if its bouncy.

Call from work...?

You should probably cut 1/4 off the bumpstops or more, depending how much your lowered.

And if your car is too bouncy, it has nothing to do with the bumpstops.

 

wow i just wanted to ask the same question,

i just removed my front Suspensions. in order to replace my springs to skink2 race.

the orange pillow (3 bubbles look alike) and the lower bubble was all chewed up.

so now i guess i dont need new ones....

how can i know how much to cut from them?

Again, depends on how low you are I think. To get a specific answer, I would call Skunk2, but if your aiming for 2+ inches of lowering, I would cut off half of the
(OEM) bumpstop.

mine was all tore up from the buttom too. it's been on oem springs their whole life!

 

this is a guy just under my girls account. I just installed my skunk 2 rear coilovers and I cut the back bump stops half off and it doesnt make a difference. Its bouncy, more in the back then in the front. I think the best thing to do is buy performance shocks. Thats my next step to hopefully stop the bounching.

 

finished mine.... now i need some wheels
