Bump Stops
My Bump Stops have completely dry rotted and fell off the truck. I have an 08 with a 2 inch leveling kit, I already did all the body bushings, as they disintegrated as well. Should I bother replacing them? I highly doubt that I would ever bottom out that bad that I would need them?

If I should replace them, then where did u guy's get them and should I go with the Neoprene like I did with the body bushings?

I don't think I've ever been on the bump stops on any of my trucks, decision is up to you but if you replace them I'd go with the stock ones.

If your going to bother to replace them, I would use timbrens, at least they will be functional.
