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.

i had bump stops for the leaf springs rot out; thise were easy to replace. Are you talking about those, or the axle bump stops?

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