Default need ideas and pics of homemade bumpstops

I need to extend my bumpstops front and rear. i was thinking about the hockey puck idea up front. For the back i have some 3/4" aluminum sheet. i was thinking about taking my rear bumpstop out and cutting some spacers out of the aluminum sheet and installing the spacer(s) with the stock bumpstops it with longer bolts.
any ideas from yall would be well appreciated
Thanks

You could use 1 inch square tubing for spacers on the rear.

yeah using 1" square tubing is about the normal for custom rear bumb stops.

Use 2 1' square tubing stacked on both sides and it works great.
