[QUOTE="Lil ugly, post: 1572189, member: 3188"] bumps are just there to slow the rigs travel down in a hurry at the very end of the travel to keep from damaging your coilovers, etc. You shouldnt be riding on them if possible. On a rig with only 5 inches of shaft showing, a 4 inch bump stop will only have 1 inch of clearance before you start getting into the bump stop under most riding conditions. Not a big deal for rigs that are launching and taking a big hit, but not ideal for a rig that is taking it slower. Should only have two inches of travel in the bump stop. If you buy 4 inch travel you can usually install an internal spacer and limit them to 2. [/QUOTE]
