Default hockey puck bump stops on 4.5 - 5".... how many ?

Anyone here using the hockey pucks for front bump stops on 4.5- 5" of lift and trimmed fenders with 33's?
if so how many did you use on each side?
I know its different for each rig depending on tire and amount of trimming. Just trying to get a general idea of how many i need to buy and hopefully get the right # of them installed the first time.

Hockey pucks are freakin cheap. 2 bucks a piece at a hockey shop, 1 at sports authority or some gongshow place.

I'd imagine it would be more than two per side on mine, but i have trimmed fenders way high and am going to longer brake lines. More pucks obviously without trimmed fenders

I have 3 per side stacked on at 4''s of lift but I dont have the stock bump stops in either.I would get 8 if you dont have the stock bump stops.I got mine at a place called Hockeymonkey

A)Measure how far up your tire can go.
B)Measure the distance from the bumpstop to the plate.
Use enough pucks so that B) is less than A).

The head of a two pound rubber mallet is about 4-1/2" from face to face. Just be sure to pull out the handle first!
