Default Bump Stops

So after much searching I can't seem to find the answer i'm looking for...


How long of bump stops should I get? I have a 2" lift and my 30" tires are stuffing into my fenders at full flex. I have about 4.75" of clearance from my tires to my fenders. I measured 3" from my front bump stops and the bottom of the spring plate. I'm not sure how much the stock ones compress, but I know I am in need of longer ones. HOW LONG SHOULD I GET??

also...

I'm thinking about these for the rear.

http://www.4wheelparts.com/Lift-Kits...pn=CRO52002393

will they be long enough? if not which ones should I get?

Daystar makes an extended set for the front and rear for about 85 bucks from 4Wheel Parts.

I bought the Daystar ones I suggested when I had my RE 2 inch running 30s. They were perfect. Let me dig you up a pic of it on the RTI ramp.

I have 255/70/16's on a 2in AAL and spacers and have had my rear tires damn near flexed all the way into the fender well.. so no rubs on stock bumpstops.. I reckon it won't take much. I'm gonna be posting the same question when I jump to 31's on the same set up.

You need have to measure for how long for your bump stops is the best way to see. Just like how long of shocks are needed when people ask for example

Well these are the stops I got from 4wheelparts


Rear Axle Snubber - Part # CRO52002393
$10.99
Polyurethane Extended Bump Stop - Part # DAYKJ09114BK
$27.99

I'll post on here how they work and what my flex looks like once they come in and I get a chance to install them
