#8340, "Bumpstops are yellow correct?"




          

Being the smart one that I am, not wanting to get flamed, I searched before I posted.

Anyways, on one post someone said the bumpstops are yellow, is this correct? Also in my H&R instructions it says to cut the front bumpstops .60" and leave the rear bumpstops stock. Is this right?

Yep you are correct. If you look at the bump stop, i cut about the first "nub" off of it, the smaller end. I think there are 3 of these little circular nubs, each increasing with diameter. Just cut off the smaller one, and you will be fine. I didn't cut any off my rear ones, but i would cut the same off of those to be safe. Only twice now i have gone over a heavy dip in the road while going somewhat fast, and i think i bottomed out in the rear, cause i heard a very weird noise. It was either i bottomed out on the bumpstop, or i hit the fender lip with my tire, not too sure though. I would just do it while its all apart, it won't hurt anything at all.
