Bump stop perches
How low can I lower the front of my 77 1/2 ton before I need to remove the bump stop perches on the lower a-arms? Just to clarify, I already have drop spindles.

Re: Bump stop perches
I bet they'd clear with a 3" spring drop pretty easy. You could whittle the rubber a bit to net you more. I kinda wish I'd left mine on or cut the whole assembly down a little.

Re: Bump stop perches
A 2in spring drop will set the tip of the rubber practically at the contact point. If you remove the rubber the perch will ocationallt make contact on hard bumps.
