Ive seen stacked hockey pucks bolted to the coil bucket. I bought extended daystar bumpstops off Amazon for $30 but there are different sizes so be careful.

I am running Pucks in my Xj I used construction adhesive on the pad on the bottom added a puck between the coil then pressed it down with a long screwdriver. Flexed it out added more adhesive and another puck. You could use those day star bumps but you have to remove the coil for install. Also you have to measure yours. Since the front bumpstops changed from a fat one to a skinny one around 97

Im running stock bumps with 33s at 4.5 and I get very little rubbing as I trimmed where needed. So I guess you really need to see after you install it. 6.5 is hella high for 33s. I doubt you could stuff those on a trimmed Jeep enough to rub.

Well as far as rubbing , you might not even need bumpstops for 33s at 6.5in especially since your Jeep is trimmed. You probably still need them to protect the coil from overcompressing but that I dont know about. Im running stock bumps with 33s at 4.5 and I get very little rubbing.
