Ive seen stacked hockey pucks bolted to the coil bucket. I bought extended daystar bumpstops off Amazon for $30 but there are different sizes so be careful.

I'm going to be doing a new lift soon, my coils came yesterday, so perfect timing, eh? My XJs a 92, would you know the size off hand?

The fat or skinny bumpstop. I'm assuming it's the fat one? Since mine's before 96 when it went to skinny.

Im running stock bumps with 33s at 4.5 and I get very little rubbing as I trimmed where needed. So I guess you really need to see after you install it. 6.5 is hella high for 33s. I doubt you could stuff those on a trimmed Jeep enough to rub.
