lol - I never even got new bump stops - johnny mechanic ran into some other problems along the way (which is why it took longer than planned) - i dunno what exactly (i'm not 100% mechanic smart). But i've done a lotta work with this dude and i trust him. Without exhageration it probably took him 1 - 2h longer than expected.

that's fine **** happens, stuff gets old rusty and stuck, but I thought the extra time was for the bump stops . sorry my misunderstanding, just didn't wanna see you get ripped off

oh yeah, it's always nice to find a mechanic you ca trust .......then you never have to question their work [img]smile.gif[/img]

Was you lift a full kit or just parts you picked up to make a kit. Most, if not all, full lift kits come with new bump stops to accomadate for the lift/lower.

I could be wrong though, it has happened before!

the lift consisted of 2" spacers for the front springs and 1.75" spacers for the rear spings. Thats all.

Wasn't a full hardcore real 3 or 6" lift, just spacers at the end of the springs. I'll post the final result of it, when i get home i can't remember my website here.

I hope you got KY Jelly, cause someone out there is shafting you for a hundred on those bumpstops.

Calgary boggin freaks, Alberta offroad association, someone on those forums would have something.

Energy suspension carries aftermarket stops pretty cheap and they are the nice Urethane in colors to boot.
