They are held on by one bolt, very easy to take off.

I would suggest testing out your current setup and see how much room you have exactly then adjusting your bumpstop from there.

Flex and see wut your fit is, then trim your bump stop with a bandsaw or hacksaw about a quater inch and repeat to get the best results.

You are measuring at full stuff and leave a little clearance for mud and debris in and on your tires.
