please explain what it is exactly?
the bumpstop is at the top of the shock?

also,
what are the pros and cons?

 

If your car is really low you could be bottoming out on the bump stop quite a bit...if you cut it in half, you would gain a little more travel..


Yager-

 

here's a link to a pic of bumpstops off my teg after i lowered her.. (you might have to copy and paste the link)

ya not much left of they ey.. i have like one notch on my teg.. they're hard foam.. remind me of my mom's homemade biscuits.. can't eat them..

the bumpstop sits between the shock and the top of the shock.. it can travel like a bead on a string.. it also helps to slightly cushion impact if you bottom out..

 

ROFLOL that was funny!

what springs do you have? H&R specifies to not cut the bumpstops when using their Sport Springs. The manufacturer of your springs should tell you how much to cut off, if any,

 

When you purchase your spring (if new), they should come with a sheet that tells you how much of the bumpstop to trim off on each vehicle. Well, at least Eibach provides this paper. You have to trim the bump stop accordingly inorder to get a good ride, if they are not trim, you can expect a harsh/bumpy ride.
