I am installing shocks and struts on my 01 and I cut the bump stop like it said in the DIY and Eibachs instructions. My question is, how important is it to keep the rubber dust shield/boot? I need an answer on this ASAP, PLEASE. THANAK YOU!!!

its good to have,but most tend to eventually rot off or tear after awhile anyways. youll be ok with it off.

Thanks for the advice. I kept half of the bumpstop attached to the boot. It is sitting at the bottom of the shock. I know it doesn't do any good as a dust boot but It was late when I cut it and then realized I needed sleep......LOL It does serve the function as a bumpstop, I guess that's all that matters.
