Default Rear BS recommendations?
Looking for recommendations on a good set of rear bump stops. Been looking at the plates and some custom ones. Needing some soon.

I'm running 33x12.5r15 MTZs. Still needing to trim fenders, but will need bump stops for sure.

What's on your rig?

Every rig is different. Depends on lift, tire size and trimming. Your best bet is to flex it out and measure for the correct stops

Yeah just one on each side. But you will have to flex and see if you need one, two, or three plates.

right, I need to trim first, then flex test it. Just looking for some recommendations. Seems like there aren't a lot of options. Besides making a custom setup.

I ordered these:

For the price of $40 for the pair I dont think you can go wrong. Paired them with some MJ bumps pulled from the junkyard. If I ever need more I'll add a hockey puck to them.

Ya, I saw these too. Are they 3/8" as well? I may do these and maybe a 4" bumper up top.
