Default Bump stops

Suggestions on which bump stops to get? The factory ones just aren't doing it and I need to get them soon.

Teraflex front/rear bumpstops. No welding and they look good. Please their $40 a pair.
Ofcourse this all depends on how much lift/travel you have

I have 35s with a 2"suspension and about a 2" body lift. Are the teraflex adjustable?

For the regular bump stops, IDK.

I ordered a 2.5 inch ift and the Speedbumps for a 2.5 inch lift. The Speedbumps come with collars that let you adjust them if you need more bump stop.

I have pocket flares and I rub alot. Busted the plastic where the screws hold it on when I went wheeling last (I was disconnected.) Trying not to do that again and it was suggested that I get bumpstops. So here I am

Default Bump Stops

For the front, you can also use the plastic board used on the back of small boats that the outboard motor bolts to, just cut 2.5" disks, and use similar to hockey pucks. The benefit of using disks is that u can slip them in between your coils if u need to add more, rather than removing your coils to add a larger one.
U can use the same plastic board from the rears as well, and stack them, or use RHS section such as trailer drawbar, which you can buy offcuts in various sizes to suit.

Planman - what about your shocks. I would think you need at lease 2" bumpstops for your OME LT shocks.
