    Default Replacement Bump Stops

    While installing my new shocks I found one of the Bump stops was in about 30 pieces.... Leading me to toss it in the bin and forget about it.

    As I'll be chucking on some Mazdaspeed springs soon, I thought I'd take the opportunity to get some new bump stops.

    Has anyone replaced these?? If so with what and where did you get them from?

    I reckon a good after market bump stop should net at least another 20kw

    you will get the same issue, if not worse than before if you are lowering on stock shocks. I guess any suspension place would be able to get bump stops. but where ever you decide to get them from, you probably want to cut some off so that you get a bit more travel. Mind you, the stock shocks will wear a lot quicker especially if you are on lowered springs

    end of the day, you want to get matched shocks when lowering
