HOrnbrod Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Since the lift I've been meaning to install bumpstop extensions. I haven't done the front yet using hockey pucks, but did extend the rear stops. I had some 1" thick x 3"-W aluminum flat stock lying around, so I cut two pieces 6" long and made a couple of spacers for the rear bumpstops. Drill out a 7/16" hole in each end, get some longer 10mm bolts, and stick them on. I only needed an inch extension, but you can get the alloy flat stock in just about any thickness.

mvusse Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 If there's any bare metal on the frame under the bump stops, coat it with something. Two dissimilar metals in contact with each other will cause corrosion. Other than that, simple, functional and looks professional. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
