You can order bump stops from GC for like $10. If they're too tall just cut them in half or something...

sick, I will give them a call

BreakMyWallet made a DIY on bump stop. like 4 bucks from Home Depot on rubber stoppers.

pretty easy DIY.

Does anyone have a link to a DIY?
What materials were used?

I have never used bump stops before so I need learnt.

You can make your own bumpstops to limit the travel, it's pretty simple. The concept of the bumpstop is basically forcing the strut to stop compressing before it gets to a certain point...
So find out how much travel you do want, and then make a stop for the remaining length.

go slower over speed bumps or wait, eventually you'll rub away the contact spot lol

So, my car sits perfect in the rear ........... minus the rubbing over large bumps.

I have heard of using bump stops on the struts, anyone have any input?
