Well I'm undercoating and installing new bump stops today. My front inserts really don't want to fit and they seem substantially larger than they should be. What am I doing wrong?

You most likely bought bumpstops for 97+ xjs.. they are bigger.
Those will not fit unelss you wanna chisel em out
LowRange just sold me a set of big bumpstops he bought that wouldnt work cause they were for newer xjs.

they're gonna be really tight to put in. Clean/sand the inside of the bumpstop bucket really good and lube up both pieces. Good suggestion from another guy a while back was with the spring out - lower the vehicle onto the stops to force it into the bucket.
