Replacing Bump Stops

Howdy Everyone!

I will be ordering new bump stops for the ol X. I did some searching around and just want to make sure that the Daystar KU09008BK Bump Stop is something you guys would recommend.

Obviously my old bump stops have gone the way of the doo-doo bird.

Thanks in advance everyone!

I already have 2 inch shackles coming in and am going to do that in the front. I figured I was going to install the bump stops regardless. Never hurts right?

I was asking if those bump stops were ok becuase when i saw them, they seemed awfully small. I don't remember what the stock ones looked like or what size they were.

I saw those bump stops mentioned here in the forums, just wanted to cofnirm others have installed these.

Thanks!

With 2" shackles you won't need any stops. I have 1 1/2" shackles and plan to remove my good bump stops so I can tell when/if it does bottom. You will have even more clearance if you remove them since they compress.

I think the ford bump stops are about $30 each. But they have the correct mounting bracket. Are the right size and take about 10 min to install. Don't even have to lift or take off the wheels.
