what size bump stops should i get for my jeep it has a 4.5 lift with 33's

depends on your wheel backspacing, tire width, shock length, amount you trimmed, and how much you feel like rubbing.

yea there is alot that goes into it but the rule of thumb is one inch bump for each inch of lift

This is a Body lift puck:
-Drilled center hole to size
-cut in half
-hose clamp to shock
-EVS shock bumpstop for cushion
Its pretty cheap. I used a fork lift to figure out how far to let the suspension compress.

Where can i find 4inch bump stops???

claygrassmann

i dunno about that shock bump stop i dont like it tho shocks aint made to stop suspension travel they are used to control it, for the front go to dicks sporting goods or ebay and something and get some hockey pucks drill a hole in the middle of them get appropriate length bolt for how many you have decided to use and bolt them in, there is a hole in the bottom of the coil bucket you can use. as for the rear there are several options to choose, perosnally im gonna weld some box tub ontop of the ubolt top plate that sticks out far enough to hit the frame, also if you still have stock bumpstops just get longer bolts for them and make a thick enough spacer

front or rear? look on 4WD Hardware or Quadratec.

shintastrife

claygrassmann

dude your kidding right?

shintastrife

nope i pulled all my bump stops out when i lifted it. there where rotted out hand have not replaced them.

stops are needed unless you wanna shread your tires

RoyalXJ

shock bump stops are bad idea. you risk bending the shaft on the shock. use hockey pucks in your coils. but you need to flex it out and measure

shintastrife

not worryed about it need money to add more parts. right now with the 3 in lift i have i can flex its to where my tries rub thinks to stock brake lines. next to that i have not tryed to flex it to the point that it rubs, so until i can. then to me bump stops are evil.

RoyalXJ

are you "slow"?
