Re: bump stop
Looks like that should keep the tires off the inner fenders.

Re: bump stop
Here you go Charlie, (70k52wd),... very easy to make. And easy to change later if you want to go lower.

Re: bump stop
To measure, air down to an inch or so from the liner. Then get the measurement at lower plate to cross member?

Re: bump stop
Yep. Get about an inch away from the inner fender. Then measure from the lower control arm bag plate up to the crossmember. That will be the total distance. Subtract the height of the rubber bumpstop. Then give me a measurement of how tall to make the metal base.

Re: bump stop
Great, I'll get a number to you asap. I feel like driving without bumpstops, kinda like driving without insurance.

Re: bump stop
Let me know if you need some. These are steel, not aluminum.

Re: bump stop
I probably will need a set when I update the front suspension. Right now I have set of built that bolt to the stock control arm. I don't think they will fit on the ART arms, I know they don't look that good...

Re: bump stop
Get me a height measurement of just the metal base,... and I'll make a couple when I get some free time at work.
