[that07balt]

there are no front bump stops... and you dont need ne thing. even tho they say too

Okay, I know i read the dead threads on bump stops but they were very unclear and the back ones were like really short so i thought, im gonna have issues if i bottom them lil guys out haha! so i left em in

 

[scagnetti76]

if your front starts bumping out at all, cut em.
they are at the top of your strut, under the accordion sleeve. they just pull straight down.

I've had my springs on for a while now and never need to cut my bump stops at all, and I've gone over some pretty hard bumps on accident, but I also drive my car likes it's made of glass.

ive heard a lot of people say they didnt cut em.
i cut mine because thats what the spring manufacturer suggested.
btw, i drive my car like its made of glass too! :bigsmile:
which is ironic since i do custom glass for a "living"

HAHA very nice...I only drive it like that because I'm the one paying to fix it and I don't wanna screw myself on an alignment...

Yea I got alignment asap...and I don't wanna hit a bump hard enough to throw it back out.

 

[scagnetti76]

youd have to hit pretty hard.
but nothing wrong with babying your car!

Like scags said they're u der the plastic accordian. You never knew there were bumpstops up front?

There's been a lot of debate on this issue and on CSS there are a number of people who will say NOT to cut your bump stops...I did cut mine according to the Sportline's instructions, but if I could do it again, I wouldn't, I'd leave them stock....when I put new shocks/struts in, I will replace those with new ones.
