Don't forget to cut the stock bumpstops in half. Reuse the fatter half.

Thanks for the extra info. Is this the only custom work I have to do. I have a 2001 ITR. I hoping everything else is direct fit and bolt on.

Meaning the upper (straight/linear) part?

Koni recommends using the progressive half (lower part) ...
