Default Suspension install help.

I've had a set of Neuspeed Sport Springs and when I had them installed on the stock shocks, the factory bump stops were cut. What do I do now when I put on my KYB AGXs? I can't remember if the reason they were cut was because I was using the stocks...

Didnt totally get the drift of your question but,
you'll have to cut 1/2 of the stock bumpstop and use the upper half (the thicker one)
So, if it was already cut, you should have 2 lumps, that kinda look like a pyramid!?!
To avoid shock damage, don't go more than 1/2 the size of the original bumpstop

Your bumpstops are fine just reuse them.

Uh...If you install anytype of aftermarket lowering springs, you'll have to cut the bumpstops according to the instructions they provide or else you'll have a bump *** ride. As far as I know, Eibach, Intrax, H&R(same as neuspeed), all require you cut the bumpstop according to most imports.

I DON'T remember exactly what it said in the instructions. They were originally installed 2 years ago and I had a shop do them for me. I thought aftermarket shocks in general have shorter bodies because they already take into account the user is probably using shorter springs.... but then again, I could be wrong.
