Rear Bumpstops...

Question... When installing Coilovers or Springs... is it necessary to cut the rear bumpstops?

when i put in my springs it said to cut them so i did. i think it depends on the drop though i did a 2" drop, but if your only going an inch you prolly wont need to cut them

To the best of my knowledge...yes it is necessary. Well....I cut them, but like v8eater said, I had a large drop, so if you're going short...you may not need to.

Boilermaker1 is a good person to ask, robclark, Zzyzx, etc....any of them can help you...they're all suspension GURU's. PM them...it's the quickest way. lol

you don't have too, if you aren't drop that low. I think by cutting it you can go over 2"
