I bought this jeep 2 months ago, when I went over a speed bump I heard a bang, like it bottom out or someone hit the frame with a hammer, it happens on both sides. I thought it was a blown shock. I changed the 2 front shocks, it still does it. Someone mentioned stopbumps? Someone said something about a rubber piece thats attacked to the frame that may be missing? The jeep only has 80k miles on it. This is driving me crazy, of all the vehicles to have this issue you would think a jeep would be the last, I never owned a vehicle that did this before. Im somewhat of a backyard mechanic but 100% in the dark when it comes to jeeps and the front end suspension.

Any help will be greatly appreciated and photos would also be good to see where these rubber stopbump things are located.

 

Okay, go to jeep4x4center.com, choose your jeep and go to "suspension parts". Find #11 on the list. These are called jounce bumpers and mount on the frame just above the axle. You can buy stock parts, but this site will show you all the parts.

 

Ordered a pair of jounce bumpers of ebay for 32 bucks, popped them in a all is good! Did a lot of off road'in this weekend and everything was great!

Thanks
