Default i need bumpstops 3" lift

I have a 3" bds lift with 31" tires and stock wheels. cant remember the backspacing. either 4.5 or 5.

my tires stuff fine and dont rub the fender/flares flexed but my rear bumpstops are completely rotted out/ missing. I'm learning as i go (didn't really known about the importance of bump stops). i dont want to ruin my shocks. iv been searching the forum and google but I'm having a hard time finding somewhere to buy rear bump stops. can you guys help with some links?

thanks

Glue a stack of hockey puck to the perch inside the springs,you'd need 2 with stock bump, without 4-5. Stocker are available online for $20 or so.

i got my replacements from Quadratec. With a 3" lift, go with the taller ones. On my XJ, the reinforcement plates between the bumpstop and the chassis were rotted away also and of course the bolts all snapped. The part number for the reinforcements is 52002386. Here's a link for the bump stops-- http://www.quadratec.com/products/52422_01.htm.

I'm not sure that will work alone. I have extended progressive bumps on the rear and never even came close to touching them with my 32's into the rear flares. See what I'm talking about...



I made these kicks out of some 2x2 sq. tubing and welded them onto my u-bolt retainer plate.



works much better now... plus I can stuff my 32's without rubbing. I'm at 4.5" FYI

Sure is! its just so much easier to do, plus I can lift it clear off the ground, buried on the bumps, to be sure it won't rub.
