That looks nice, but I don't have ANY bumpstops left at all as they've both completely rusted off and I'm not keeping my rear axle, its a 27 spline 8.25.

I'm in for RC if I can get my bump stops for the rear. I need a place to disconnect my sway bar and flex it out to take measurements.

Daystar extended bump stops cost me $65 and I still needed to have jimmy fab up some plates so they would work. $100 for the truss and stock bump stops and your good for less headache I think. Plus you strengthen your 8.25. Otherwise go the same route. Jimmy did some nice work can't wait to put them in.

Yes it is I remember your first trip out to Trails, I think you ground 1/2" off of your fenders that day
